Nutritional Support for Healthy Eyes
I play cards on Tuesday nites with the ‘Great Old Biddies’. The oldest is 95 (still driving) and the youngest is 83 (not driving). Last Tuesday, several of the ladies were discussing their eyes and how hemmed in they feel without being able to drive. It got me to thinking-One of the senses I take care of the most is my sight. I go for annual checkups with my optometrist, have all the tests taken… glaucoma, macular degeneration… . I try to eat right for healthy sight- but I should do more- because if I am lucky enough to make it to 95 years old- I want to be able to drive!
I called Ellen Troyer (a total Greenie!) at Biosyntrx- to talk about Nutritional supplements for Eye Health- What a wealth of information she is! Biostyntx sells to optical professionals and consumers can purchase on line as well. Their site has tons of good info about their products, FDA regulations and medical studies. She also offers a Weekly Newsletter, called the Friday Pearl, in which you can subscribe and get the latest Medical information.
Here is the thing- we are inundated with all this information on what we should be taking, the health benefits. yada, yada, yada…. At least I know Biosyntrx is medically endorsed.
