Carlson Labs Moistur-Eyes 180 Softgels

Carlson Labs Moistur-Eyes provides nutrients to promote and help maintain normal eye moisture. Certain nutrients are important towards maintaining eye moisture and radiant skin through their metabolic functions. Moistur-Eyes supplies nutrients important to the eyes and skin. Each soft gelatin capsule provides essential fatty acids EPA, DHA, and GLA as well as the ACE antioxidants:

• VITAMIN A: is an essential nutrient for visual processes including night vision. Vitamin A is also necessary for the maintenance and health of the eye membranes, helps support normal eye moisture and serves as an antioxidant. Good sources of Vitamin A are cod liver oil, eggs, butter, milk and spinach.
• VITAMIN C: is essential for the production of collagen, which is a major component of eye tissue. Vitamin C helps maintain the integrity of ocular blood vessels, helps protect the eye lens and helps maintain eye tissues by preventing free radical damage. Vitamin C can be found in fruits and vegetables such as oranges, grapefruits, strawberries, sweet red peppers and broccoli.
• VITAMIN E: is an important antioxidant for the entire eye, especially the retina and lens. Vitamin E may help protect the eye from the effects of UV light and also may help decrease oxidative damage to the lens, retina and other eye tissue. Vitamin E is widely distributed in vegetables and seeds, but is not found in substantial amounts in any foods.
• ZINC: is an important mineral critical for retina health and found in high concentrations in the eye. As we age, important zinc-dependent enzymes decline, so maintaining optimal zinc levels may become even more important for eye health. Zinc may protect eye membranes and the macula from oxidative damage. Zinc is necessary for vitamin A utilization and important enzymes for eye function require zinc. Zinc can be found in shellfish, beef, nuts and legumes.
• DHA: This highly unsaturated omega-3 fatty acid is an important component of the rods and cones of the retina, which enable vision. Maintaining healthy DHA (DocosaHexaenoic acid) levels support normal visual acuity. Fish is an excellent source of DHA and DHA can be found in substantial amounts in herring, mackerel, salmon, sardines and whitefish.
