Macula Hx®
Macula Hx® is a powerful formula that is made of ten eye-friendly nutrients that offer superior antioxidant protection for various parts of the eye. As we age, the pool of available nutrients decreases, exposing the eyes to the harmful impact of free radicals. As a natural reaction to protect itself, the eye is very selective in what it allows inside the cells. The activity of vision production alone releases a large volume of free radicals that can contribute to ocular aging. Natural Lutein and Zeaxanthin are included to support visual acuity and help maintain proper circulation. Glutathione is the major antioxidant enzyme in the eye. Macula Hx also helps to support night vision and may play a role in reducing age-related macular degeneration, due to its high Vitamin C content. This formula may help to benefit every part of the eye, including the macula, retina, cornea, lens, aqueous humor, vitreous, and retinal blood vessels.†

The Science Behind The Ingredients In Macula Hx
Research from Molecular Vision found that supplementation with Bilberry extract helps to provide the body with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory support helping to improve vascular health and oxygen to the cells of the eyes. [1]
Research published in Clinical Interventions in Aging states that there is evidence that dietary antioxidants and anti-inflammatories may provide benefits in supporting eye health. Nutrients of interest are vitamins C and E, beta-carotene, zinc, lutein, zeaxanthin, and the omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA. The eye has a particularly high metabolic rate, and thus has an added need for antioxidant protection.In the eye, vitamin C may also be able to regenerate other antioxidants, such as vitamin E. [2]
Research from Metallomics states that supplementing with selenium can help to provide vision and eye health support. Selenium helps increase Glutathione protection and supports healthy macula cells. In addition, the retina is the tissue that consumes more oxygen, which generates a high production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Selenium has a tremendous capability to scavenge these free radicals. [3]
Research from Nutrients states that supplementing with Vitamin B2 helps to support circulation and energy for the health of the eyes and vision support. [4]
Research published in Community Eye health Journal states that Vitamin A is essential for proper eye health and vision. Vitamin A is essential for maintaining the integrity and function of all surface tissues (epithelia): for example, the skin, the lining of the respiratory tract, the gut, the bladder, the inner ear and the eye.

After taking Macula Hx® one a day for my eye pressure of 25, I am able not to wear eye glasses (for driving), although I still need my reading glasses but can read some labels on jars.

I’m 60yrs old. I recently started taking Macula Hx®. I have found that since then I require less light to read and I no longer need to use a magnifying glass to read a newspaper.

I recently began a new job which would require me to work long nights, knowing how my vision seems to diminish driving at night and the on coming car lights hurt my eyes. I was afraid that I might not be able to hold this job for long; suddenly I remember hearing Jerry talking about Macula and began taking it right away. I was driving New Years Eve and all of a sudden I began saying “oh my goodness I can see the lines up ahead and the lights of the on coming cars don’t bother me” Now I drive at night with confidence!!!
