The fear of losing our eyesight is escalating with the increase of cataracts, glaucoma, macular degeneration, other retina diseases, dry eye and other cornea problems. Current allopathic approaches can help, but people are looking for more….
The current health care system:
- Does not support us to be a biosystem
- The effects of stress, toxicities, electronics, and traumas are creating an environment of starvation for the tissues of the body, including the eyes.
- Lack of oxygenation and hydration are key reasons why our eyes are letting us down
State of our Eyes
- Macular Degeneration is the leading cause of blindness of people over the age of 60
- Over 11 million people suffer macular degeneration, and that number will double by 2050.
- Estimates of the global cost of visual impairment due to age-related macular degeneration is $343 billion, including $255 billion in direct health care costs.
Why are our eyes letting us down?
- For a long time before symptoms show themselves…
- We have a lack of proper blood flow to the eyes
The effects of chronic low-grade oxygenation and hydration causes:
- Fatigue, poor digestion, lowered colon function, and poor detoxification which leads to more inflammation in the body especially in the eye tissue.
- We also can see elevated blood pressure, and poor respiratory function.
- Overeating and weight gain
- Poor skin health,
- High cholesterol
- Kidney and urinary tract disease
- Faster aging
- Deteriorating eyesight and vision
Fast Facts about our eyes:
- The eyes originate from brain tissue (prenatally)
- The eyes are interrelated and interconnected with our body functions. i.e, cranial rhythm, liver
- The eyes make up 2% of the body weight and use
- 25% of the food intake
- The eyes carry 60-80% of body tension
Keys to healthy eyes:
Better blood oxygenation increases our digestion, hormone function, meridian health, and eyesight.
The less hydration, oxygenation in the eye tissue, the more susceptible we are to poor macular health.
