Nature's Remedy to Restoring Eye Sight

(I was inspired to write this post after reading all the success stories of "Sight Care" so I researched the ingredients and wrote this post.) 

Eyebright is a herb that has been used traditionally to treat eye problems. However, it may not be safe or effective for your eyes. Instead, you can try these eight natural substances that may protect and improve your eye health: alpha lipoic acid, quercetin, lycopene, glutathione, zeaxanthin, lutein, rutin, and eyebright. These substances are antioxidants, carotenoids, and flavonoids that can fight oxidative stress, inflammation, and age-related macular degeneration in your eyes. They can also enhance your visual acuity, contrast sensitivity, and night vision.

In this blog post, we will show you two ways of getting these substances into your body: the cheapest way and the easiest way. We will also give you a price breakdown for each option.

The Cheapest Way

The cheapest way to get these substances into your body is to use a combination of foods and supplements that are rich in them. Here are some products that offer the lowest prices per serving for each substance:

- ALPHA LIPOIC ACID: Nutricost Alpha Lipoic Acid 600mg, 240 Capsules. $0.10 per capsule.
- QUERCETIN: NOW Quercetin with Bromelain, 240 Veg Capsules. $0.17 per two capsules.
- LYCOPENE: NOW Lycopene 10 mg with Natural Extracts, 60 Softgels. $0.13 per softgel.
- GLUTATHIONE: Nutrivein Liposomal Glutathione Setria® 700mg - 60 Capsules. $0.50 per two capsules.
- ZEAXANTHIN: Puritan's Pride Lutein 40 mg with Zeaxanthin-120 Softgels. $0.12 per softgel.
- LUTEIN: Puritan's Pride Lutein 40 mg with Zeaxanthin-120 Softgels. $0.12 per softgel.
- RUTIN: NOW Lycopene 10 mg with Natural Extracts, 60 Softgels. $0.13 per softgel.
- EYEBRIGHT: Nature's Way Eyebright Herb, Vegetarian Capsules, 100 Count. $0.09 per two capsules.

The total cost of these products for one month would be about $36.

You should also eat foods that are rich in these substances, such as:

- ALPHA LIPOIC ACID: Red meat, organ meats, broccoli, spinach, tomatoes, and yeast.
- QUERCETIN: Capers,
peppers,
onions,
shallots,
asparagus,
cherries,
tomatoes,

and red wine.
- LYCOPENE: Sun-dried tomatoes, tomato purée, guava, watermelon, fresh tomatoes,
canned tomatoes,
papaya,

and mangoes.
- GLUTATHIONE: Sulfur-rich proteins like beef,

green tea;
red wine;
and herbs like parsley
and sage.
- EYEBRIGHT: Eyebright tea or tincture.

Please consult your doctor before taking any supplements or changing your diet.

The Easiest Way

The easiest way to get these substances into your body is to use a combination of supplements that have multiple ingredients in them. This way, you can reduce the number of capsules or softgels you need to take per day. For example, you could take:

- A multivitamin that contains alpha lipoic acid, quercetin, lutein, and zeaxanthin. One such product is Thorne Research Basic Nutrients 2/Day, which costs about $0.56 per two capsules.
- A lycopene supplement that also contains rutin. One such product is NOW Lycopene 10 mg with Natural Extracts, which costs about $0.13 per softgel.
- A glutathione supplement that also contains eyebright. One such product is Pure Encapsulations Liposomal Glutathione with Eyebright, which costs about $1.33 per capsule.

By taking these three supplements, you would get all eight ingredients in a total of four capsules or softgels per day. The total cost of these supplements for one month would be about $75.

You should also eat foods that are rich in these substances, as they may offer additional benefits such as fiber, vitamins, minerals, and phytochemicals. See the list above for some examples.

Please consult your doctor before taking any supplements or changing your diet.

Quinine and Malaria: A Historic Antimalarial Warrior

Introduction: For centuries, quinine has been a powerful weapon against malaria, derived from the bark of the cinchona tree. In this blog post, we explore the fascinating interactions between quinine and malaria, its mechanisms of action, and its evolving role in the fight against this deadly disease. The Mechanics of Quinine's Battle: Quinine disrupts the growth and reproduction of the malaria parasite, Plasmodium. By entering infected red blood cells, it interferes with the parasite's ability to metabolize and utilize hemoglobin. This disrupts the vital process and ultimately leads to the parasite's demise. A Multifaceted Attack: Quinine inhibits the breakdown of hemoglobin, preventing the parasite from obtaining necessary byproducts for survival. The accumulation of toxic heme molecules within the parasite further contributes to its death. These mechanisms make quinine effective against various malaria parasites, including the dangerous Plasmodium falciparum....
