Fortifeye Next Gen Macular Defense Capsules

In response to recent scientific findings, Fortifeye Vitamins has introduced a reduced zinc antioxidant eye vitamin specifically designed for individuals with macular degeneration. The latest studies indicate that certain genotypes of the population affected by macular degeneration may experience adverse effects from too much zinc supplementation, while others may benefit from a combination of zinc and antioxidants. This new formulation aims to address
these varying genetic factors and provide a tailored approach to support macular degeneration patients without high amounts of zinc. These nutraceuticals have been developed to promote overall body wellness, bolster the immune system, and provide comprehensive vision support. Fortifeye Next Gen Macular Defense simplifies your regimen with a single capsule to be taken three times a day alongside meals or as recommended by your optometrist or ophthalmologist.

Lutein and zeaxanthin isomers are powerful antioxidants that have been found to be essential for cognitive health, eye health and skin health.  They are found in many foods, including spinach, kale, and eggs and is also available in supplement form.  Recent studies have shown that lutein and zeaxanthin isomers can help protect the brain from oxidative damage, which can lead to cognitive decline.  It has also been found to support memory and learning while reducing the risk of age-related cognitive decline.  Lutein and zeaxanthin isomers are important for cognitive health because they help protect the brain from oxidative damage.

Oxidative damage is caused by free radicals, which are molecules that can damage cells and tissues.  Free radicals are produced naturally in the body, but they can also be caused by environmental factors such as pollution and smoking.  Lutein and zeaxanthin isomers help protect the brain from oxidative damage by neutralizing free radicals.  Lutein and zeaxanthin isomers are carotenoids that are also important for eye health.  There are four carotenoids that are very important in the human eye.  Lutein, Zeaxanthin isomers (RR-zeaxanthin and meso-zeaxanthin) and Astaxanthin.  Lutein and zeaxanthin isomers are carotenoids that are in the center of the retina called the macula.  These carotenoids help protect eyes from damaging high intensity blue light by increasing macula pigment optical density (MPOD).  Eye care providers and nutrition scientists believe increasing macula pigment optical density (MPOD) may decrease the chances of developing macular degeneration from exposure to blue light.

Macu-LZ™ contains lutein, RR-zeaxanthin and meso-zeaxanthin and has been shown to benefit quality of vision, eye strain, eye fatigue, and blue light protection. In clinical studies, lutein + zeaxanthin isomers were shown to increase macular pigment optical density (MPOD) and improve visual function.   In addition, clinical studies have shown that lutein and zeaxanthin reduce eye fatigue associated with prolonged exposure to blue light. The Kemin blue light patent highlights the benefits of lutein and zeaxanthin and protecting people of all ages from blue light associated with computers, smart phones, sunlight.  Supplementing with Macu-LZ™ lutein + zeaxanthin isomers significantly reduced stress, serum cortisol, and symptoms of suboptimal emotional and physical health and highlighted the importance of macular carotenoids for daily stress support.  Macu-LZ™ lutein + zeaxanthin isomers have been shown to benefit cognitive function, healthy stress, increase brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), and sleep quality.   Macu-LZ™ supports skin health by serving as an antioxidant and absorber of blue light benefiting skin protection, skin tone and skin brightening

To promote the health of mitochondria, the organelles responsible for ATP (energy) production, as well as aid in neuroprotection, this formula includes (Acetyl L Carnitine, Alpha Lipoic Acid, Astaxanthin, and CoQ10. Furthermore, all eight forms of vitamin E our tocopherols and four tocotrienols) are incorporated to optimize the neutralization of free radicals.

Resveratrol, a potent polyphenol predominantly found in red wine, exhibits remarkable antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. The “French Paradox” highlights the correlation between the French population, who consume diets high in saturated fats, and their lower rates of heart disease and mortality compared to Americans. This phenomenon is attributed, in part, to the potential protective effects of resveratrol found in the red wine they regularly consume. Resveratrol has been associated with promoting healthy aging. Numerous studies have demonstrated potential benefits of resveratrol for various health conditions. Recent research indicates that resveratrol may positively influence conditions such as macular degeneration, cataracts, glaucoma, and proliferative diabetic retinopathy. Fortifeye was among the pioneers in utilizing resveratrol in their supplements, recognizing its potential early on within the industry.

Incorporated for its exceptional ability to neutralize free radicals and reduce inflammation, Astaxanthin provides remarkable benefits. Compared to vitamin C, Astaxanthin is an astounding 550 times more potent in quenching free radicals.

Clinical studies have substantiated the beneficial effects of Black Currant Fruit Extract, including improved blood flow to the eye, alleviation of dry eye symptoms, enhanced dark adaptation, and potential slowdown in the progression of visual field loss in glaucoma. Moreover, Black Currant Fruit Extract has been the subject of studies supporting a range of other health benefits.

Bilberry, also known as European blueberry, is rich in potent antioxidants called anthocyanins. This remarkable fruit serves as both an antioxidant and an anti-inflammatory agent. Interestingly, fighter pilots used to consume bilberry jam, as they believed it improved their night vision. Numerous patients have reported experiencing reduced eye fatigue and fewer dry eye symptoms while working on digital screens when supplementing with bilberry. Scientific studies have demonstrated that bilberry supports a healthy retina, enhances contrast sensitivity, and improves tear secretion. Notably, when combined with pine bark extract, bilberry has clinically shown to lower intraocular pressure in patients. With its impressive benefits, bilberry makes another excellent addition to Fortifeye Next Gen Macular Defense.

Grape seed extract is abundant in anthocyanins, flavonoids, and oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPCs), all of which play a crucial role in safeguarding the body against oxidative stress and inflammation. Research on grape seed extract indicates its potential protective effects against cataracts and its ongoing investigation for promoting retinal health.

Taurine, an amino acid, is highly concentrated in essential organs such as the eyes, brain, muscles, and heart. It plays a critical role in supporting the central nervous system, immune system, and overall eye health. Acting as an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent, taurine offers valuable protective effects. Furthermore, research suggests that taurine enhances energy levels and improves exercise performance. Studies have also indicated potential benefits of taurine for the eyes, heart, hearing, brain, and liver.

 By combining Fortifeye Vitamins or similar supplements with lifestyle adjustments, dietary modifications and following your doctor’s advice you are becoming pro-active in your current and future health.  Fortifeye Next Gen Macular Defense is highly recommended for individuals seeking to take proactive measures for the future well-being of their eyes and overall health.
