Essential Fatty Acids are known to improve sight and colour perception
Kelp is also a source of Zeaxanthin which protects the macula of the eye. Our Organic Kelp is a superior grade and is naturally “nutrient dense” and contains a broad spectrum of minerals, vitamins, trace elements, micro-nutrients, carotenoids and prebiotics, and together, these act as catalysts in the body that stimulate vital enzyme reactions
Magnesium: Poor eye health is more common in people with Magnesium deficiency. 8 out of 10 Brits are deficient in this vital mineral
Substances that deplete Magnesium: Alcohol, caffeine, lactose, refined sugars, various vegetable syrups such as corn syrup, saturated fatty acids, aluminium fluoride, and high dose calcium supplements. Other culprits are cheap protein drinks and synthetic vitamin D. Endurance exercise and pharmaceutical drugs also increase the excretion of magnesium.

There are over 25 different types of chemical-form supplements, often called “natural”.
Magnesium, like all minerals, needs to be bound to proteins for absorption, and foodstate Magnesium is the only type of supplement that is fully formed in this way.
