NATUROPHTA MACULA Food supplement antioxydant for eyes 30 gel + 30 caps

The aging of the retina

Factors such as aging, poor diet, smoking and high light attack our visual cells by causing the release of free radicals and singlet oxygen. Naturally, the cell has antioxidant mechanisms that protect it. But when the free radicals and singlet oxygen are too much, these mechanisms become insufficient and the cell is destroyed. This is called oxidative stress. This phenomenon is causing many diseases, among them the related macular degeneration (AMD).

Several studies have shown that the combination of antioxidants (vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin E, carotenoids) and anti-free radical (copper, selenium, zinc) reduced the onset and slowed the evolution of the effects of aging eyes, especially when protecting these mixtures are fortified with Omega 3, a natural component of the retina.

The solution Naturophta Macula ®

Horus Pharma relied on the AREDS study, LAST and NAT-2, while respecting the French regulations regarding the recommended daily allowance, to establish a comprehensive formula that provides a single daily dose components essential to promote the fight against oxidative stress especially in the macula: antioxidants, minerals and Omega 3.

Three important points

The fight against oxidative stress is complex and involves several defense mechanisms within the cell. To fight more effectively against oxidative stress, we must therefore make various types of antioxidants.

* Carotenoids (astaxanthin - Lutein - zeaxanthin):

According to a study Shimidzu1, astaxanthin has a higher antioxidant capacity than other carotenoids. Lutein and zeaxanthin are antioxidants known, but also of major physiological components of the macula. Their role is to filter blue light harmful for the cells of the retina. POLA2 The study has highlighted a correlation between elevated serum zeaxanthin and prevention of degenerative eye diseases.

* Vitamins A, C and E:

These antioxidants are essential because the body can not synthesize them. They protect cells from free radical damage.

* B vitamins:

They participate in the regulation of homocysteine, a substance involved in numerous inflammatory and thrombotic phenomena.

* Copper, Selenium and Zinc:

These minerals are coenzymes important physiological antioxidant mechanisms. Their input also facilitates the antioxidant reactions.

His orginalité

* The Omega 3 essential fatty acids.

Omega 3 are the major constituents of cell membranes in the retina. Some studies suggest increased consumption of Omega 3 (particularly DHA) is associated with a decreased risk of AMD.
