Ocular Nutritional Supplements

Our doctors recommend nutritional supplements to improve your antioxidant levels and promote better eye health and general health.

Healthy nutrition can be achieved by eating 8-10 or more servings of vegetables and fruits every day. If you do not eat enough vegetables and fruits daily, we recommend that you add supplements to your diet that include antioxidants.

Antioxidants combat free radicals, which are harmful to our health. Free radicals damage our cells and organs, leading to disease and degeneration. Antioxidants help protect our cells from this damage, reducing and sometimes eliminating the risk of disease and degeneration. Examples of free radicals are chemicals from fried and processed foods, smoking, pollution, ultraviolet light (sunlight) exposure, etc.

Examples of antioxidants are carotenoids, flavonoids, tocopherols, anthocyanins, etc.

LifePak is a comprehensive formula that contains an optimal blend of vitamins, minerals, and more importantly antioxidants and phytonutrients.

Our doctors recommended LifePak supplements as they have been optimally formulated with the safest ingredients. This means that the ingredients have been thoroughly tested to make sure they are exactly as the label reads and also tested against bacteria and other microbes as well as toxins, like mercury.

These ingredients are also bio-available, which means that they absorb well and provide the most effective nutrition.
