Properties:
Vitamin C is an excellent remedy for preventing cataracts. Ascorbic acid improves eye blood supply, strengthens the walls of blood vessels, and reduces tension.
Vitamin E (tocopherol) performs an equally important function for the visual organs. It is a powerful antioxidant and protects eye tissues from the effects of active oxygen species.
Zinc improves the ability of lens cells to absorb glucose. If the eyes do not receive zinc for a long time, the likelihood of developing cataracts increases. In addition, zinc is of great importance in the process of absorption of vitamin A by the body.
Copper – as part of the key enzyme of the first line of antioxidant protection, copper-dependent superoxide dismutase, neutralizes active forms of oxygen, inhibits the formation of peroxynitrite, which is dangerous for eye tissue. It is a catalyst for many biochemical reactions. Participates in the synthesis of melanin.
Lutein and zeaxanthin are carotenoids, yellow pigments of the macula, necessary for the normal functioning of the retina. Of the many carotenoids circulating in the serum, only lutein and zeaxanthin accumulate in all tissues of the eye, reaching maximum concentration in the central retina – the “yellow spot”. Accumulating in the macula of the retina, they partially reflect blue light from the central zone, where the light flux is maximally focused, and protect it from the action of the most aggressive, blue, UV part of the daylight spectrum. Also, lutein and zeaxanthin, being powerful antioxidants, are able to suppress the formation of free radicals, which prevents the destruction of the retina, especially the macular region.
