OcuForce™ provides a comprehensive array of ideal eye-supportive nutrients and antioxidants, including the macular carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin, bilberry, Ginkgo biloba, curcumin, quercetin, taurine, N-acetyl-cysteine, and lipoic acid to promote normal eye health and function. This formula also includes B vitamins, and vitamins A, C, and E (as delta- and gamma-tocotrienols), along with zinc to support the body’s antioxidant status and a healthy inflammatory response. Ocular-Supportive Nutrients Lutein and its isomer, zeaxanthin, are yellow carotenoid pigments that provide antioxidative properties found in high levels within foods such as egg yolks, dark green leafy
vegetables, corn, and broccoli. Human studies have shown that these ocular-supportive nutrients promote healthy visual and retinal function. Lutein and zeaxanthin may help support the density of the pigment within the macula of the eye, as they are the only carotenoids located in the macula where they are found in the highest concentration within the human body, ultimately promoting ocular health. Bilberry contains phenolic anthocyanidin pigments that possess antioxidant properties and seem to have a particular affinity for eye and vascular tissues that may help support healthy blood supply to the retina and promote capillary reinforcement and microcirculation within the eyes. Folate and vitamin B12 may help support proper homocysteine metabolism. Elevated levels of homocysteine is associated with the development of age-related conditions and ocular dysfunction. Therefore, supporting healthy homocysteine levels may help support
a proper inflammatory response, particularly within the eye. Ginkgo biloba is included to support ocular blood flow and visual function. Considering the critical role of zinc in immune system health and its high concentration and distribution within the retina of the eye, supporting zinc status may also help promote a healthy inflammatory response within the eye.
