Banish dark circles & under-eye puffiness

Posted by youngaga On October - 29 - 2009Comments Off

Under-eye circles and puffiness look ugly and can mar even the most youthful and perfect face. Unfortunately, the under eye area is very vulnerable to aging as the skin under the eyes is thin and delicate.

As you age, the fat pad under the eyes thins out causing the skin to bag and the under-eye blood vessels to become more noticeable. Factors such as lack of sleep (or too much), dehydration (or fluid retention), poor diet, hay fever and allergies, certain medications (and certain medical conditions) - or even your genetics - can cause the problem.

The following steps could help reduce these dark patches.

Sleep is a must - 7/8 hours are essential. Drink enough water and make sure your diet includes generous helpings of green vegetables.

A yoga asana - ‘the inversion pose’ can be extremely helpful if you’re supple enough or a yoga practitioner. Alternatively, try lying down on the floor and raising your legs at right angles to your body. It’s okay to use the wall or any vertical support to prop your legs up at right angles. Hold this pose for a few minutes, breathing normally. Start with half a minute and build up to three.

There are also some commercial formulas that are known to be effective. Moisturizing emollients and natural ingredients help counter moisture loss and the appearance of skin pigmentation -the characteristics of dark under-eye circles.

Direct application of cucumber juice can also work in the long term. Grate raw cucumber without peeling and apply the extracted juice on the dark or puffy under-eye area. Wash off after 15 minutes.

Here’s to a pair of sparkling eyes, unmarred by unsightly dark rings,

Benefits of Dry Skin Brushing

Posted by youngaga On June - 23 - 2009Comments Off

Daily dry skin brushing is said to be one of the best ways to keep the body circulation going and to eliminate toxic wastes from the system.

The human body has a number of ways of eliminating the waste matter it generates. Sweating is one of the most effective means at its disposal to rid itself of toxic wastes. The skin – the largest body organ – is also the primary area through which the sweating-cum-elimination process is conducted; the skin is also the route through which beneficial elements like sunlight are drawn into the body. So the need to maintain an absolutely clean and unclogged skin surface, at all times, cannot be over emphasized.

We all use one or more of the many cleansing formulae in the market designed specifically for the skin to be kept clean – any number of soaps, bath gels, body washes etc are available, and we’re not against them. But, such applications do leave a residue on the skin surface, and such residue does build up over time. It is necessary to scrub this residue off, to remove all the dead skin cells and the debris left from dried up sweat. Then only can the skin breathe and renew – and work.

The best way is through dry skin brushing - more on the technique of dry skin brushing on our site.

Not only does this simple technique unclog the pores of the skin it stimulates the elimination of toxic wastes from the lymphatic system. However, a few things to remember: the brush has to applied to dry skin, wetting the skin will not have the same effect; and it is preferable that the ’brush’ used for the purpose be made of a natural fibre.

Coincidentally, on a visit to North East India, Roshmi noticed that every bathroom was equipped with a strangely shaped loofah - a naturally dried pith of a local gourd; on enquiring, she was told that a daily rub down with this implement is as routine for them as brushing their teeth. No doubt it’s the secret to the smooth flawless skins of the women of that area.

To your health,

Lose 45 lbs in just 30 days Easily

Posted by youngaga On June - 16 - 2008Comments Off


Hello there,

A lady doctor named Dr Suzanne Gudakunst has just released what many are calling the end of the need for potentially harmful weight-loss drugs and designer foods made to help you lose weight.

It certainly worked for her own figure, as you will see on the webpage!

Dr Suzanne’s discovery allows anyone regardless of their particular diet to do “just one simple thing” and instantly start shedding anywhere from 15 lbs to as much as 200 lbs of unwanted and dangerous fat!

Typical results average 45 lbs in just the first 30 days alone for most people just starting out using her new secret.

The reason this is so is because her secret operates on an entirely different approach in the battle against the ever-increasing “bulge.”

Dr Suzanne discovered that harmful crusty “plaque” builds up over the years in all of us - and which is the direct result of harmful chemicals, preservatives, pesticides, etc. deliberately placed in perhaps every food on the market (much of which is now suspected as being carefully and intentionally done so that people will continue to get fatter and thus sicker, and in order to make the food & drug companies richer!)

The result: This harmful plaque is responsible for your weight gain because is BLOCKS your body’s natural ability to absorb proper nutrition - and which causes two (2) main things to occur:

  >>  Your body starves no matter how much you eat - so by not
feeling satisfied you continue to stuff your face and get very
very fat (and eventually at the permanent cost of your
health!)

  >>  Your body thinks it’s starving so your ‘hypothalamus’
adjusts your metabolism to burn food much, much slower in
an effort to store food - thus making you even fatter than before!

So it makes sense that if and when you REMOVE this unwanted “garbage” from lacing your ‘insides,’ you will naturally start dissolving the fat and “stored chunks of lard” that disfigure an otherwise more attractive and healthier frame and sexier body.

As if this ‘plaque’ goop weren’t enough, Dr Suzanne identified multitudes of specific species of “parasites” (i.e., little worm-like “critters” - some which have ‘fangs’ but no eyes) living inside nearly 99.964% of all people’s small and large intestines in the United States alone, and about 92.36% of people on average worldwide.

These parasites excrete a jelly-like “SLUDGE” they coats your insides and which is very, very harmful and extremely TOXIC!

Additionally, much like the plaque, they often steal your nutrition which in turn again causes your body to believe it’s starving, and as a defence you continue just to get FATTER and FATTER!

These parasites usually end up dying (but not before laying millions of eggs!) — and once they die, they fossilize forming a coral-like barrier preventing you even further from absorbing the correct amounts of proper nutrition.

When these parasites are FLUSHED from your guts, you end up magically losing lots of fat and extra weight - even WITHOUT making any change to your diet or to how much you eat!

SHOCKINGLY, these same “little critters (as Dr Suzanne calls them) actually release chemical “messengers” that make you crave foods that you are not even supposed to eat at all!

People who get rid of the parasites, therefore, suddenly find that they no longer even desire the junk food, pork rinds, jelly-filled treats, and numerous other equally deadly so-called “foods.”

In the past 6 years alone Dr Suzanne has tested her amazing new discovery privately with a select group of volunteers, and seen results that fall nothing short of the truly FANTASTIC!

For instance, a Chicago woman who weighed until recently a whopping 587 lbs, and who had even been visited by a living-legendary diet and fitness guru (name withheld by request), but who after much direct assistance from him (the guru) was not able to shed even 1 lb, suddenly dropped 449 lbs from her body weight in under 5 months using Dr Suzanne’s SECRET! — and she didn’t change or reduce one thing she regularly ate in her diet!

Now the woman weighs just 138 lbs, looks like a completely different woman altogether — and as if that weren’t enough, she became a swimsuit model for a well-known company! (But most importantly, this woman added who knows how many years to her life as a direct result of using Dr Suzanne’s techniques.

Another equally tearfully-joyous account was of a woman named Lisa Stephens from Ohio who was told her diabetes could “never” be cured or reversed — and this by various doctors.

After shedding over 156 lbs in just 91 days of having used this same amazing revolutionary breakthrough secret discovered by Dr Suzanne, her diabetes is gone completely, and she no longer depends on insulin just to be able to survive!

These kinds of results are flooding Dr Suzanne’s email everyday from all over the world (not just from North America — which has by far the fattest population as a group).

And even though you like me recognize these results as both newsworthy and for the common good of humanity as a whole, there are some who are literally out to get the good lady doctor.

Recently investigators began carefully keeping an extra protective eye on Dr Suzanne after she received death threats from “individuals” purportedly connected to the vast drug empires and weight-loss food manufacturing companies.

It would appear that Dr Suzanne’s “Top Secret Fat Loss Secret” must really work, because if it didn’t no one would care to bring her harm.

Investigators speculate that the reason she received threats is largely because what she is doing may actually make people healthier, leaner, sexier and trimmer, as well as allow them to live longer fuller lives — and as a result they stand to lose lots of money (possibly BILLIONS of dollars!!)

The BEST part of her secret is that it’s not difficult to do, and it doesn’t require a major change in either your lifestyle or diet.

In fact, “Nature’s actually on our side” according to Dr Suzanne, as her solution to the arduous ills of fat and obesity is simply the ingestion of Nature’s own ‘protections’ against both the harmful death-causing and obesity-causing plaque, as well as the nasty little critters living in your bowels!

Anyone with anywhere from just a few extra pounds to those 100 lbs or more overweight should obtain Dr Suzanne’s secret method (before someone tries to lobby against you ever discovering what’s truly in it!).

I recognize a great thing when I see one — and THIS SECRET is definitely the most amazing thing I’ve ever seen.

We all know that people are just getting fatter and fatter, and more and more UNHEALTHY - so this is a secret whose time is long overdue.

While many people may tell you to just stick to your diet, exercise to the point of exhaustion, etc, the naysayers will definitely be disappointed when they find out that Dr Suzanne’s cure to obesity is completely NATURAL!

If you want the doctor’s secret for yourself, download your own PDF copy here:

Dr Suzanne, in an effort to get people to take action for their own good, is making it available at nearly HALF OFF for people getting over there fast — after that, the low price nearly DOUBLES!

Lasik surgery is not for everyone

Posted by youngaga On June - 11 - 2008Comments Off

Welcome back!

I read a report recently on complaints before an FDA panel by Lasik patients.

Lasik stands for Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis, and is a procedure designed to change the shape of the cornea to correct vision in people who are dependent on corrective glasses or contact lenses.

You are probably aware of the claims that Lasik surgery restores sharp vision, and negates the need to use eyeglasses. Hundreds of thousands have had the surgery, and now some disquieting reports are surfacing that a number of patients have not only failed to gain good vision, but have been left with even worse vision.

Below is the gist of the report, for those of you contemplating Lasik surgery:

Patients who experienced painful side effects after undergoing Lasik eye surgery are airing their grievances in front of a U.S. Food and Drug Administration panel.

Mr DS of Washington, D.C. complained that after undergoing the eye surgery he has “not experienced a moment of crisp, good quality vision since.”

Mr GD told of his son’s suicide six years after having the popular vision-correcting procedure. He described the six years of pain and blurred vision his son endured before ending his life. His son had been told he wasn’t a good candidate for the surgery but decided to have it anyway.

“I can’t and won’t continue facing this horror,” the suicide note said.

The FDA is holding a public inquiry to investigate consumer complaints about Lasik and to determine if the information provided to patients about the risks and benefits is sufficient.

The FDA is also working on a study to investigate why some patients develop such negative side effects, while others don’t.

While most people who undergo Lasik end up with 20/20 vision and no side effects, a few come out with eye problems such as dry eyes, glare or compromised night vision.

“Clearly there is a group who are not satisfied and do not get the kind of results they expect,” Dr. Daniel Schultz, the FDA medical device chief, told The Associated Press.

The study should “help us predict who those patients might be before they have the procedure.”

The FDA warns that some people may not be suitable candidates for Lasik. These include:

* Children under age 18

* Those who have had a change in their glasses or contact lens prescription in the last year

* People who have an illness or take medication that may affect wound healing

* People who suffer from dry eyes, which may be exacerbated by the procedure

So please take these points into consideration if you are considering Lasik surgery.

Doctors disturbed by this weight-loss disclosure

Posted by youngaga On June - 2 - 2008Comments Off

Hello there!

In what is perhaps the most shocking announcement made in some time regarding the diet and health industry, a lady doctor has just released what some authorities are calling the world’s “Top Secret Fat Loss Secret!”

The lady doctor, whose name is Dr Suzanne Gudakunst, has really upset the major food & drug industries, as well as weight loss food companies.

In the past 6 years, she has worked largely in secret, developing what may be the “cure” for obesity — and testing this first on herself, and then on a select group of volunteer patients who anxiously awaited salvation from the harmful effects of suffering ‘the battle of bulge.”

It certainly worked for her figure, as you will see on the webpage!

So valuable are her SHOCKING findings and PROVEN results, that she’s now just released her simple and easy-to-do system under the aptly titled: “Top Secret Fat Loss Secret!”

And her timing couldn’t be better! …

- Since recent studies reveal obesity has now reached epidemic

proportions, her secret may well prove a major life-saver to the

now more than 40% of Americans alone who are labelled

“obese!”

- Children are now considered “fatter than ever” by most experts,

and Dr Suzanne’s remedy may prove a preventative in the fight

against later-in-life developed diabetes when these same

children grow into adults!

And what may be the BIGGEST “Shock” of all is this horrifying fact:

=> Dr Suzanne has received death threats for simply making

her secret fat loss solution available to the general public -

from what law enforcement investigators believe may

be insiders in the weight-loss or diet food manufacturing and

weight-loss drug treatment industries!

One federal law enforcement official (who insists on remaining nameless) said in confidence:

“It’s no shock to us at the [agency name withheld for security

purposes] that this lady doc has received so many threats on

her life as food and drug companies stand to lose potentially

billions of dollars by the release of her new breakthrough

secret for losing weight.”

But now with the release of this breakthrough weight and fat loss revelation, people who previously struggled so very hard with little or any success in the fight against the “extra pounds” now have a VAST & POWERFUL WEAPON on their side for a well-deserved change!

When asked if she feared retaliation from pharmaceutical and weight-loss food manufacturers, she said almost hopefully…

“I wish they would do so especially in public because to get

fired upon for this would demonstrate more than ever that I

must have done something very, very right … as anyone

with common sense would see that the only reason they are

in business in the first place is because being overweight as

a population only serves to make them even richer … and

what I’ve done is going to free masses of people from being

slaves to them for good! - even many millions.”

So despite the continued threats, Dr Suzanne is more on the ball and out to ruffle as many feathers as she can with her New “TOP SECRET Fat Loss Secret!”

To be sure the good gal-doctor isn’t going this alone! Nope. She’s got some very BIG heavy-hitters on her side!

Joined in unison by some of the biggest names in modern medicine from the likes of Johns Hopkins, Harvard Medical, and a good number of the other leading world-recognized hospitals and higher-learning institutions, Dr Suzanne moves rapidly forward in her personal “war” on ugly, unwanted fat and for the pursuit of better and eventually optimal health for all!

Additionally, you should know that nothing about her secret fat loss cure is difficult or hard to do.

What you may even find strangely surprising about her secret is the fact that it can by done by anyone effortlessly! (You’ll have to see it for yourself to understand how this is actually possible!)

So if you are someone who has been losing the fight against ugly fat and unwanted extra inches (that eventually without a doubt will shorten your life and lower the quality of it), then this is exactly what the lady-doctor ordered!

Just grab the good doctor’s secret for yourself at:

weight loss

I feel it only fair to warn you that “the rush” is so vehemently on, that if you hesitate you may find that tomorrow when you get there (the link just above) the credit card-taking process might be so overburdened that you can’t order without difficulty.

Plus, it’s my understanding that she knocks off nearly HALF the cost just for people getting over there within 24-48 hours! And the cost is very modest as it is.

So if I were you I’d not delay because the price may nearly DOUBLE just 2 days from now.

Also keep this in mind…

———————————–

How many times have you seen sudden “breakthroughs” of such great controversy potentially come along and cause a woman doctor to actually get death threats for her secret ‘know-how?’ — You’re right … almost never.

So please give this email serious consideration as it may very well prove to be one of the most important ones to your health and appearance that you have ever received…

To your good health and vision – for life.

Lady Doc Gets Death Threats for Revealing TOP SECRET Fat Loss Information

Posted by youngaga On May - 28 - 2008Comments Off


Welcome to the Natural Health & Beauty blog.

A new breakthrough secret is all you now need in order to forever shed countless pounds, stay healthy, and add many years to your life!

A lady doctor from Arizona has blown the lid off the best-kept secret in weight loss ever discovered — and this has the whole diet food and drug industries turned upside down and in nothing less than a torrential uproar.

Her name is Dr Suzanne Gudakunst, and she’s marching to the beat of a different drum.

And no, nothing about her “secret” is difficult — nor does it require that you do something completely out of the ordinary or anything unnatural.

Instead, the Arizonian boasts proudly “…this is something that I caught onto just before 2002 when there was so much research and exploration going around concerning the human colon and digestive system working in harmony with nutritional absorption, and I started doing independent studies just to test things at first … but which I later expanded on after seeing some fantastic results.”

This same woman medical practitioner went on to accurately determine a definitive correlation between harmful plague and parasitic infestations of the human bowel tract, and people suffering chronic obesity — and who despite intense diet and exercise appeared to be unable to lose any weight whatsoever.

Over the course of six years the Arizona doctor developed a number of natural treatments for the removal of these same harmful, even life-threatening plaques and rapidly reproducing digestive parasites — and when applied to even worse-case patients suffering extreme obesity (98% of which were in immediate danger of dying) she saw a 100% effectiveness and success rate.

She then borrowed from her research on the severely obese, and applied the same strategies on milder cases of overweight persons — only to find the same effectiveness and quality results as described above (although the individual weight loss per subject wasn’t nearly as much as those obese patients 100 lbs to 200 lbs or more overweight).

So powerful is her secret that she’s able to reverse diabetes, rid illness altogether in people suffering from cancer (linked directly to poor diet and overweight factors), as well as an elimination of an entire spectrum of serious and otherwise life-threatening diseases.

Nearly 100% of all her case subjects were told in the alternative by “conventional doctors” that they either had just months or years to live, or they would never live a life anything resembling remotely a “normal” existence — yet after applying Dr Suzanne’s treatments saw a complete contradiction to others doctors’ prognoses.

Again, nothing about her secret is unnatural or requires someone to do any major action or modification in their lives.

In fact, her entire treatment is based completely on built-into-nature ‘protection agents’ scattered throughout the world in the form of select herbs, extracts, and organic constituents, and which can be found in a variety of plants — but when combined in specific combinations and carefully chosen amounts make for a solution to what is perhaps the world’s worst ever plague: OBESITY (and the illnesses and diseases resulting from it — or at least severely aggravated or exacerbated by it).

Now to everyone else’s great gain, whether suffering from just a few extra pounds and inches, to those extremely fat and overweight, this brave, bold lady doctor is releasing to the general public her secret for forever destroying the tight unrelenting closed-fist of obesity’s stronghold over the now more than 40% of Americans labeled obese, and others worldwide.

But she’s not promising any of us for how long.

Some experts and sociologists suggest that in the bigger scheme of things, the world will never tolerate a discovery of such magnitude, any more than it would be realistic to expect a car that runs on water (even if very real) to ever become commercially available to the general public for day-to-day use.

One well-respected and famous diet & wellness author wrote years ago that if anyone ever “truly unlocked the keys to permanent fat loss, they may actually suffer the same fate as JFK.”

It is currently available at:

weight loss secrets

…so you may want to head on over there now and get it and before someone or “something” gets it forever yanked out of ever getting in YOUR hand at least.

It’s in a very easily readable format and is quickly and readily understood and mastered by anyone with even a 4th grade reading level.

While you’re there, why not scroll down and review for yourself the huge successes others are now having with this incredible breakthrough in rapid, massive weight loss and extremely improved and enhanced health, now made freely available to the rest of us?

To your good health and vision - for life!

New non-surgical treatment for cataracts

Posted by youngaga On May - 5 - 2008Comments Off

 

Welcome to our natural health & beauty blog!

Cataract, a condition in which the lens of the eye turns cloudy, has long been the most common cause of blindness in the world. At best, you seem to be looking through a cloud or a haze, and this haze can vary in size, density and location. Therefore, its effect on your vision will also vary. Many people experience a general reduction in vision at first; they need more light to read by, or they have difficulty with street signs when they are driving. A cataract can also effect depth perception. This can be a particular danger to older people who risk greater injury from falls and accidents.

In the United States, 75 percent of all people over the age of 60 show some signs of cataracts as a normal consequence of aging. In a healthy eye, the lens focuses incoming light onto the light-sensitive retina. But, because the eye’s lens turns increasingly opaque as the cataract develops, more and more light is absorbed by the lens and not transmitted to the retina. Eventually, reduced vision begins to interfere with daily activities.

A revolutionary new treatment for cataracts has been gaining in popularity in both the States and Europe since it was featured in the UK on the Richard & Judy Television Show  with amazing results. The developer, a company in Switzerland, claims these eyedrops  could mean an end to cataract surgery.

The product uses a special derivative of the naturally occurring neuropeptide L-Carnosine, called N-Acetyl-Carnosine (NAC), which is a super antioxidant and anti-glycating agent. NAC, when topically applied, can penetrate and protect the lipid tissues of the eye against light damage and also helps to diminish free radical damage and the harmful effects of glycosylation associated with degenerative eye disease.

Visit  non-invasive cataract treatment to access important information, and a video, that could mean dramatic benefits for cataract sufferers.

To your good health and vision – for life.

Five Vision Strengthening Foods

Posted by youngaga On May - 2 - 2008Comments Off

Hi there,

Your eyesight can deteriorate as you age, so protecting your vision should be your top priority.

Keep your eyes healthy by including vision-strengthening foods in your daily diet.

 

Here are five foods that are good for your vision.

 

They will not only help to nourish and support your eyes as you age, but can also help to reduce your risk of cataracts and macular degeneration.

 

EGG YOLKS

 

Egg yolks are the best source of lutein, a yellow-hued antioxidant. Lutein is especially important for its ability to protect against cataracts and macular degeneration.

 

Lutein (along with zeaxanthin, another carotenoid) forms the yellow pigment of your retina and absorbs blue light, a harmful component of sunlight, says Dr. Andrew Weil, M.D.

Researchers also think that lutein’s antioxidant actions help to protect your eyes from light-induced oxidative damage.

 

Lutein is also found in vegetables, especially green leafy ones, but eggs are an important source.

Those who ate eggs as their lutein source had blood levels of lutein that were about three times higher than that of those who ate other lutein sources.

 

The researchers suspect that other components in the egg yolk, such as lecithin, are responsible for its superior absorbability by our body.

 

BRAZIL NUTS

 

One Brazil nut contains 120 mcg of selenium, which is about twice the Recommended Daily Allowance.

Selenium’s antioxidant activity fights free radicals that can damage your eye’s lens and macula at the center of your retina. This antioxidant property may help prevent cataracts and macular degeneration.

 

BLUEBERRIES

 

Blueberries contain anthocyanins. These are potent antioxidants that give fruits their red and purple color.

Blueberries can help to prevent age-related damage and improve blood flow to your eyes.

Anthocyanins also strengthen blood vessel walls, which can slow the development of diabetic retinopathy.

 

 

The blueberry is one of the healthiest fruit. It ranked number one in antioxidant capacity by researchers at the USDA Human Nutrition Center when compared to 40 other fresh fruits and vegetables.

 

Cherries, red grapes, pomegranates, red cabbage, and beets also contain high levels of anthocyanins.

 

 

SALMON

 

Salmon and other oily fish like sardines, herring, and black cod are rich in omega-3 fats. A research study from Harvard Medical School found that people who eat fish twice a week, while avoiding unhealthy fats

like trans fats, have less than half the risk of developing macular degeneration as people who do neither.

Omega-3 fats help protect light-sensing cells, and are linked to a lower risk of cataracts.

 

PAPAYA

 

One serving of papaya will give you close to a three-day supply of vitamin C, which is one reason why papaya has been found to protect against macular degeneration. According to a 2001 study by the

National Institutes of Health, people with macular degeneration could slow the disease by getting 500 mg of vitamin C, 400 IU of vitamin E, and 80 mg of zinc every day.

 

BROCCOLI

 

Broccoli contains sulforaphane, a cancer-fighting compound that is also a powerful antioxidant.

According to researchers at Johns Hopkins University, human retinal cells treated with sulforaphane were protected from oxidizing free radicals for several days.

Other cruciferous veggies like cabbage, kale, mustard greens and turnips are also rich in sulforaphane.

 

So do try and include some, or all, of the above foods in your daily diet.

 

Another completely natural way of rebuilding fading eyesight is the daily brief, and guaranteed effective, eye exercise program described in our website.  Better Vision  Naturally

 

The program boasts an encouraging 94.7 percent success rate in reversing vision problems.

 

In our opinion, natural methods of strengthening, and regaining, your eyesight are preferable, and safer, than surgery, in many cases. For example, many articles have recently been published about the dangers of Laser therapy, even on the FDA website.

 

Anyhow, diet and exercise as described above will ensure that you maintain, or regain, clear vision even as the years go by.

 

To your good health, and vision, for life!

Important information on cataracts

Posted by youngaga On October - 3 - 2007Comments Off

Welcome back!

 

We came across a very informative article by Jennifer Gruden in one of the natural health newsletters we subscribe to.


We include excerpts and information from it below and we hope it will help you to retain clear vision.


Cataracts are the leading cause of loss of vision for adults aged 55 and above.


The lens is the part if the eye responsible for focusing light and producing clear, sharp images.


The lens is made of mostly water and protein.

 

Over the years, protein can accumulate in certain areas of the lens, making images look blurred or fuzzy. The lens may also become cloudy.

 

Some symptoms of developing cataracts:

 

• Cloudy or blurry vision.

• Colours appear faded.

• A halo may appear around lights, or lights may appear too bright.

• Decreased night vision.

• Frequent prescription changes in your eyeglasses or contact lenses.

 

These symptoms also can be a sign of other eye problems.

 

For most people, cataracts are a natural result of aging. Cataracts may also occur as a complication to surgery for other eye problems (like glaucoma). Cataracts may develop after an eye injury. Some forms of radiation treatment can cause cataracts to form. They may also be linked to steroid use. There is also a congenital form where newborns have cataracts at birth.

 

Those who have diabetes, and who smoke and drink heavily, are also at higher risk for cataracts. Sun exposure is also linked to the rate of cataract growth, so wearing sunglasses or a wide-brimmed hat may help to delay growth.


Problems due to small or early cataract can be addressed by better eyeglasses, lighting, anti-glare sunglasses, or magnifying lenses. However the only effective treatment is surgery, where the cloudy lens is removed and in most cases an artificial lens is implanted. (In some cases a lens cannot be implanted and glasses or contact lenses are used instead.)

 

Vision problems caused by cataracts tend to develop slowly over time, so most people who have cataracts do not need to rush into having surgery. In fact many cataracts do not need to be removed.

But generally speaking, the decision whether or not to go ahead with surgery depends on the quality of vision. All surgery involves risk, particularly of infection. Cataract surgery is considered a safe surgery, and is extremely common.

The most common complication is clouding of the part of the lens that remains after surgery, necessitating another procedure to correct the problem.

Surgery also leaves patients at higher risk of retinal detachment, which can lead to blindness and is considered a medical emergency.

 

Fewer than 3 per cent of patients who have the surgery experience other, serious complications. These include swelling of the retina, which usually resolves itself, a new or different astigmatism, inflammation of other parts of the eye, development of glaucoma, and infection of the tissues in the eye (less than one per cent of cataract surgery patients experience this particular side effect). Some of these complications can leave patients with poor vision of blindness in the affected eye.

 

The operation lasts about one hour and many patients remain awake for it. Patients return quickly to every day activities, but their vision may remain blurry until the eye heals and adjusts to be able to focus properly.

Your Blind Spot

Posted by youngaga On September - 21 - 2007Comments Off

 

Welcome back!

 

You are probably aware that we all have a blind spot, so here is a

short explanation of just what it is.

 

The optic nerve which connects to the back of the eye

near the macula, transmits electrical impulses from the

retina to the brain.

 

But, the optic nerve is not endowed with the retina’s

sensory receptor cells. Because of this, there is a spot

at the back of the eye which is ‘blind’!

 

Everyone has a blind spot. This is a perfectly normal

phenomenon, but nobody notices it because the vision of

both eyes overlaps. The better the coordination of your

eye muscles, the less likely the chances of you ever

discovering your blind spot.

 

There is a vision program that is designed to strengthen

and retrain your eye muscles in the same way as any other

muscle system is trained.

 

This program was developed from Orlin Sorensen’s cutting

edge knowledge and research and specifically focuses on

improving visual acuity in the following problem areas:

 

1)Aging Vision(Presbyopia)

2)Farsightedness(Hyperopia)

3)Nearsightedness(Myopia)

4)Astigmatism

 

In addition, the program gives you the

strongest guarantee; use it for

180 days, risk-free. If you are not happy for any reason

whatsoever, simply drop it in the mail and he will refund

you 100% of the purchase price (including shipping &

handling). You incur NO RISK at all.

 

No other programs offer such a guarantee!

Eye Exercises Proven Effective for Rebuilding Vision

Posted by youngaga On September - 20 - 2007Comments Off

 

Hello!

 

While it’s true that very few eye doctors offer instruction in

natural eye exercises that can dramatically improve your vision,

you should know that eye exercises have been PROVEN to

rebuild vision.

 

Natural vision therapy is recognized by:

 

*American Optometric Association

 

* Institute of Medicine of the National Academy

of Sciences

 

*Dictionary of Occupational Titles of the

Employment and Training Administration

 

*U.S. Public Health Service

 

*Department of Labor Employment and

Training Administration

 

*National Center for Health Statistics

 

*Bureau for Labor Statistics

 

*Department of Health and Human Services

 

*Association of Academic Health Centers

 

PLUS, 43 U.S. states recognize vision training in their

occupational definitions of optometry, AND natural vision

correction is recognized by many other agencies,

associations, notable experts, and organizations.

 

Here’s what leading experts in eye care say about

natural vision correction:

 

“The American Optometric Association affirms

its longstanding position that vision therapy is

an effective therapeutic modality in the treatment

of physiological dysfunctions of the vision system.”

–American Optometric Association, 1985

 

An article published in the American Journal of Optometry &

Physiological Optics summarized that “the literature provides

a solid base of research supporting vision therapy as an

effective treatment mode for accommodative deficiencies.

 

Vision therapy procedures have been shown to improve

accommodative function effectively and to eliminate or

reduce associated symptoms.”

–Rouse, 1987

 

“Symptoms were totally eliminated in 53% of the patients,

reduced in 43% and remained the same in only 4%.

Therefore … an overall success rate of 96%.

 

There is an impressive and increasing body of evidence attesting

to the trainability of accommodative function.”

 

(From a study of 96 patients with some type of accommodative

dysfunction who had completed a vision therapy program.)

–Irwin B. Suchoff, O.D., and Timothy G. Petito, O.D.  1986)

Journal of the American Optometric Association

 

 

As you can see, we’re in good company when we say that the

Rebuild Your Vision program really works.

 

That’s why we stand behind the program 100% and

guarantee that you must see dramatic results, regardless

whether you suffer from nearsightedness, farsightedness,

astigmatism, computer eyestrain, or aging eyes.

 

You will be thrilled by the improvement and clearness

of your vision.

 

The course is guaranteed to provide satisfaction, and you get a bonus with it.

Details of the bonus are provided on the website.

Oysters improve Eyesight

Posted by youngaga On September - 19 - 2007Comments Off

Hi there!

 

If you’ve been looking for an excuse to hit the oyster bar,

you’ve  found the perfect reason to binge on oysters.

 

Oysters are the richest food source for zinc; and the latest

research  reveals that daily intake of zinc greatly reduces

the risk of age-related macula degeneration.

 

Red meat, poultry, beans, nuts, whole grains and dairy products,

are other good sources of zinc.

 

Another must-do vision correction strategy is to practice

The Rebuild Vision For Life Program. This program is designed to

strengthen and retrain your eye muscles in the same way

as any other muscle system is trained.

 

This program was developed from Orlin Sorensen’s cutting

edge knowledge and research, and specifically focuses on

improving visual acuity in the following problem areas:

 

1)Aging Vision(Presbyopia)

2)Farsightedness(Hyperopia)

3)Nearsightedness(Myopia)

4)Astigmatism

 

In addition, Orlin Sorensen, confidently gives you the

strongest,  stand-by-the-product guarantee; use it for

180 days, risk-free. If you are not happy for any reason

whatsoever, simply drop it in the mail and he will refund

you 100% of the purchase price (including shipping &

handling). You incur NO RISK at all.

A solution for myopia

Posted by youngaga On September - 19 - 2007Comments Off

Welcome back!

Early on in the development of senile cataract the power of

the crystalline lens may be increased, causing myopia, and

the gradual yellowing and opacification of the lens may

reduce the perception of blue colours.

Additionally, very advanced cataracts with weak zonules can

get dislocated, restoring some perception of light, causing

you to believe that there is an improvement in the eyes.

One must recognise these conditions for what they are - the

progression of the condition, not improvement.

Read more about non surgical treatment of cataracts at:

http://www.youngagainforever.com/cataracts.html

Some people with myopia try to sail through eye tests

by narrowing their eyes or squinting, in order to see

better for the few minutes it takes to complete the

eye tests.

Just think what you could do by taking up a scientific

set of eye exercises that have been especially designed

to improve myopia. The vision-for-life program is not

a solution that lasts a few minutes. It can teach you

to better your vision for always.

The fact is that many eye muscle problems are found

to respond dramatically to special eye exercises. So,

we’d advise you to try out the Rebuild Your Vision program

first, before considering other options.

This program is designed to strengthen and retrain your

eye muscles in the same way as any other muscle system

is trained…by working them out in a specific sequence.

The Rebuild Your Vision method has been developed from the

most recent & cutting edge knowledge and research and

specifically focuses on improvement of visual acuity

in the following problem areas:

1)Aging Vision(Presbyopia)

2)Farsightedness(Hyperopia)

3)Nearsightedness(Myopia)

4)Astigmatism

In addition, the founder, confidently gives you the

strongest, stand-by-the-product guarantee; use it for

whatsoever, simply drop it in the mail and he will refund

you 100% of the purchase price (including shipping &

Eggs & Spinach may protect from Blindness

Posted by youngaga On September - 12 - 2007Comments Off


 


Hello .

Here is a very interesting article from Yahoo News if you are worried about age-related vision problems.

 

Two nutrients found in eggs, spinach and other leafy green vegetables offer some protection against the most common cause of blindness among the elderly, researchers said on Monday.

 

Age-related macular degeneration affects 1.2 million Americans, mostly after age 65, and the irreversible condition gets gradually worse, robbing victims of the center of their vision. Many people may be susceptible due to genetic factors, while smoking is known to heighten the risk.

 

The two nutrients, lutein and zeaxanthin, are both carotenoids — compounds that give many fruits and vegetables a yellow color.

 

They help ward off the condition, apparently by allowing the eyes to filter harmful short-wavelength light and by curtailing other damaging effects to the macula, or the center of the eye’s retina, the researchers said.

 

“No clear associations with other nutrients were seen,” including the vitamins C and E and beta-carotene, according to the researchers, led by John Paul SanGiovanni of the National Eye Institute, one of the National Institutes of Health in Maryland.

 

The 6-year study asked about the dietary habits of 4,519 people aged 60 to 80 when enrolled.

 

Those in the top fifth of dietary consumption of foods containing the two nutrients had 35 percent less chance of developing the condition compared to those in the lowest fifth of consumption.

 

“Lutein and zeaxanthin may be considered as useful agents in food or supplement-based interventions designed to reduce the risk of AMD,” the researchers wrote in their report, published in the journal Archives of Ophthalmology.

 

Foods considered good sources of the nutrients include eggs, spinach, kale, turnip greens, collard greens, romaine lettuce, broccoli, zucchini, corn, garden peas and Brussels sprouts.

Fighting Aging Vision

Posted by youngaga On August - 25 - 2007Comments Off

Hello

Getting old may be inevitable, but losing your vision doesn’t have to be.

Presbyopia, or “aging vision,” as it is commonly referred to,

is the hardening of the lens and tightening of the eye muscles

associated with aging.

This condition occurs in nearly everyone at some point in their

lives, typically around the age of 40.

Aging vision causes the ciliary muscle, which is the muscle that is responsible for focusing, to become inflexible. It is therefore unable to change the shape of the lens by the amount required to focus on near-point objects.

At first you might find it hard to focus on the newspaper or on a menu at a restaurant.

Before you know it, your arms aren’t long enough to read anything.

Inevitably, off you go to get your first pair of reading glasses –

making your optician very happy as you have just become a lifelong customer!

However, there are very ways to combat aging vision.

If you suffer from presbyopia, you can visit rebuild vision for a helpful free information course.


As mentioned previously, science has proven that stiffening of the components of the eye is the cause of aging vision.

As a matter of fact, depending on your age, you possibly have more than a few muscles that don’t feel quite as limber as they used to!

What do you do when you have a tight hamstring or triceps? You stretch it out every day, and over time, it regains its flexibility and elasticity.

Well, your eyes are no different.

There are special optical exercises and vision-improvement

techniques that can help you regain the elasticity that your

eyes once had and the clear, natural vision that you remember

from years ago.

To your good health and vision – for life!

The Eyesight Thyroid Connection

Posted by youngaga On August - 23 - 2007Comments Off

Good Day and thanks for dropping by.

This article provides important information about the importance of the normal functioning of your thyroid and the resultant impact on your eyesight, among other things.

“Hypothyroidism, a treatable, but often undiagnosed condition,

may be related to the development of glaucoma,” said study

author Dr. Christopher A. Girkin, an associate professor of

ophthalmology at the University of Alabama in Birmingham.

The implications of his research become significant when

combined with the fact that Glaucoma is known to be a

leading cause of blindness and that 5% of the US population

has hypothyroidism.

Now that the connection between thyroid deficiency and

glaucoma has come to light, it is important to understand

the nature of hypothyroidism - a condition caused by an under-

active thyroid gland.

“Thyroid hormones are essential and primary regulators of the

body’s metabolism. Imbalances can affect virtually every metabolic

process in the body, exerting significant effects on mood an

energy level. Thyroid function has a profound impact on overall

health via its modulation of carbohydrate, protein, and fat

metabolism, vitamin utilization, mitochondrial function,

digestive process, muscle and nerve activity, blood flow, oxygen utilization, hormone secretion,

sexual and reproductive health,

and many other physiological parameters.”

It appears then that there is no part of the body that the thyroid

gland does not control - and the latest research, quoted above,

indicates that the eye is no exception - hypothyroidism can lead

to Glaucoma.

Those at risk for glaucoma are advised to have a dilated eye

examination at least once a year

The mainstay of Glaucoma treatment is to lower intraocular

pressure by use of pharmaceuticals or surgery. In Europe, Japan,

and Canada laser treatment is often the first line of therapy.

But, “…in the U.S., adoption of early laser has lagged, even

though prospective, multi-centered, peer-reviewed studies,

since the early ’90s, have shown laser to be at least as

effective as topical medications in controlling intraocular

pressure and preserving visual field..”

The therapeutic benefit of certain topically applied eye-drops,

has been proven to be remarkably effective.

L-Carnosine, a naturally occurring nutrient uncovered by cutting

edge research, specifically focuses on improving visual acuity

in the following problem areas:

1)Glaucoma

2)Cataracts/Clouding of the lens

3)Aging Vision(Presbyopia)

4)AMD - Macular degeneration

Computer Vision: Effective Tips to Save Your Eyesight

Posted by youngaga On August - 22 - 2007Comments Off

 

Hello there,

 

Everyone seems to spend a lot of time on the computer these days. This can cause eye-strain which can lead to vision problems.

 

Here are some tips from Orlin Sorensen, who has been instrumental in rebuilding eyesight for thousands of people.

 

We’ve all heard of carpal tunnel syndrome, perhaps the most severe computer-related injury, but few are aware of Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS), the most common. The American Optometric Association defines CVS as the “complex of eye and vision problems related to near work that are experienced during or related to computer use.” Symptoms of CVS are eyestrain, headaches, blurred vision, and neck or shoulder pain.

 

Fortunately, making some basic changes to your work station can significantly improve the symptoms of CVS. And since March is “Save Your Vision Month,” what could be more appropriate than taking a closer look at what you look at daily — your computer?

 

1) Monitor Madness

 

Repositioning your monitor is an easy and effective way to avoid awkward head or eye movements. It should be squarely in front of you at a distance of 18 to 28 inches, with the top of the monitor (not the screen) level with your eyes. You may also have to adjust the angle of your monitor to allow your eyes to remain in a natural position (straight ahead and slightly down). The ideal viewing angle is 10 to 20 degrees below your eye level. Remember, too, to place any copy you are working with at the same level as the screen; document holders that attach to the side of your monitor can be purchased at any office supply store.

 

2) Glare Care

 

Modifying your office lighting will eliminate glare and harsh reflections. First, find the source of the glare: is it coming from a window, task light, or the computer screen itself?

 

Adjust blinds or curtains to minimize sunlight. Turn down overhead lights so that the brightness of the screen and the surrounding room are balanced. Do not, however, work in the dark: the contrast between computer-generated light and lack of background light strains the eyes. Task lights should be positioned to provide direct light for reading and other office work but should not shine directly on the computer. Use a monitor glare screen or hood, change your monitor position, adjust your brightness/contrast controls, and use a larger text size, as display legibility is an important factor in visual performance. And get out those paper towels! A dusty, dirty screen can contribute to eye fatigue.

 

3) Take a Break

 

It’s easy to lose track of time at the computer. Take a break at least once an hour for about 10 minutes and blink frequently — video display use is associated with a decreased frequency of blinking. (And a computer break is a perfect excuse to perform your Rebuild Your Vision eye exercises.) Computer use can also cause an increased rate of tear evaporation. Relieve dry, itchy eyes with artificial tears from the drugstore or supermarket.

 

4) Special Needs

 

Seniors should take extra care arranging their work stations. The American Optometric Association notes that workers over 50 years of age require twice the light levels of young adults for comfortable work.

 

By the same token, very often small children share the same computer as their parents, a situation that can lead to injury, as monitor distance and position have been set up to accommodate the adults. Parents should also keep track of time spent at the computer — “parental control” applies as much to taking breaks as overseeing content!

 

Finally, be sure not to strain and squint to see your computer screen. This can lead to a multitude of problems including headaches, fatigue, dry-eyes, and prolonged vision problems.

 

As with any eye care issue, discuss computer-related vision problems with a qualified professional.

 

Well, we hope you found the article useful!
