AquaSource Eye Health Complex

Eye Health Complex

Eye Health Complex supports eye health with a synergistic combination of proven ingredients that are gluten-free, non-GMO, and approved by the Vegan Society in the UK.

Maintaining good vision at any age is becoming a challenge. In addition to the usual age-related vision problems, we are increasingly straining our eyes from excessive use of digital screens, overwork and external factors such as air pollutants.

AquaSource Eye Health Complex supports good vision at any age thanks to a synergistic combination of proven ingredients that are gluten-free, non-GMO and approved by the Vegan Society in the UK.

Key Ingredients in Eye Health Complex

Eyebright Extract – eyebright flower extract has been used for centuries. It is a proven natural supplement for maintaining good vision. It contains high levels of the carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin, two important antioxidants that are essential for eye health. These substances can protect the retina from oxidative stress caused by free radicals and exposure to blue light.

Eyebright (Euphrasia officinalis) Extract – eyebright (Euphrasia officinalis) in Eye Health Complex is another well-known nutritional supplement. It is an herb that commonly grows in Europe, Asia and North America. It contains flavonoids, including luteolin and quercetin, which have antihistamine properties. Eyebright also provides the compound aucubin, which has been shown to protect against oxidation. It is often used to relieve general eye irritation.

AstaReal® Astaxanthin – these special algae are extracted from the freshwater and non-GMO microalgae Haematococcus pluvialis, which is a sustainable vegetarian source of nutrients. The original hand-picked wild algae cells are then optimised by growing the best astaxanthin-producing wild cells. Astaxanthin promotes dynamic focus by helping the ciliary muscle, one of the main eye muscles, to work better and recover faster from eye strain and fatigue.

Maqui Berry Extract – extracts from the South American maqui berry in Eye Health Complex have been found to support tear fluid secretion and improve the actual function of the tear film. Maqui berry has been shown to be beneficial for dry eyes. It contains high levels of anthocyanins and polyphenols, powerful antioxidants that can help reduce inflamed eyes and increase tear production.

Vitamin C – from acerola, 17% extract. Vitamin C plays an important role in protecting against damage from ultraviolet light. While the concentration of vitamin C in the eyes decreases with age, diet and supplements can compensate for this. Vitamin C also protects against damage from oxidative stress. Vitamin C does NOT accumulate in the body, so daily intake is essential.

Blackcurrant Fruit Extract – the combination of Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids in blackcurrant seed oil helps reduce dry eyes by supporting natural watery tear secretion.

Vitamin E (D–α–TE) – our eyes can be particularly susceptible to ultraviolet radiation from various sources. Vitamin E can help to neutralise cell oxidation from normal exposure to ultraviolet rays. The D-α-TE form of vitamin E has proven its high absorbability and stability in this application. Vitamin E is an important antioxidant that has been shown to protect against oxidative stress.

Zinc (citrate) – high levels of zinc are concentrated in the retina, choroid and macula. Zinc protects the eyes from ultraviolet radiation and blue light. Like vitamin C, zinc is not stored in the body and must be obtained through food or supplements.

Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) – plays a role in helping the retina receive light. Vitamin B2 helps the body create glutathione, a specific antioxidant that can contribute to the elimination of free radicals in the eye. Vitamin B2 deficiency can lead to light sensitivity and may be associated with other vision problems.

Beta Carotene – a precursor to vitamin A, our beta carotene is extracted from Dunaliella Salina, often called pink algae. Beta carotene also helps reduce oxidative stress that various light sources place on our eyes.

Lycopene – lycopene is a plant nutrient that gives colour to fruits such as tomatoes and grapefruit. It is another important antioxidant that can protect the eyes from oxidative stress.

Use with AquaSource Liquid Gold Complex

By providing important fatty acids from various plant sources, AquaSource Liquid Gold Complex delivers a range of important Omega-3, -6, -7, -9 fatty acids that support a healthy heart, joints, eyes, your hormonal balance, etc. Microalgae oil, rich in DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), has been added for good brain function.
