Have you ever gotten sand in your eyes?
It’s a horrible feeling, but fortunately it’s temporary.
But for folks suffering from dry eyes, they often experience that in-your-eye-gritty-feeling all the time.
Add in the itching and burning, the excess watering and blurred vision… it’s miserable.
And if you suffer with this condition, you might find temporary relief with artificial tears, but they don’t treat the underlying cause.
Personally, I like to fix problems, not just slap Band-aids on them.
That’s where targeted nutrients come in.
See, specific nutrients have been shown to help your body produce tears, lubricate your eyes, reduce inflammation, and relieve dry eye symptoms!
All without taking a single drug.
There are four you need to know about… one of which has found to show improvements in just three days!
Dry eye syndrome is just what it sounds like… a condition that occurs when your eyes don’t produce enough tears.
The good news is that there are nutrients that can increase your tear production and reduce the uncomfortable symptoms of dry eyes.
Here are four of the best:
Vitamin A is involved in tear production and lubrication of your eyes. Not surprisingly, then, a deficiency in vitamin A can contribute to dry eye syndrome.
Fortunately, boosting your vitamin A levels can help.
In one study, people with dry eyes took 5,000 IUs of vitamin A. After just three days, they experienced better quality tears.
Vitamin A also improved the smoothness of the tear film and supported the formation of new tears.
As with vitamin A, a deficiency in vitamin D can contribute to dry eye symptoms.
Studies have shown that supplementing with vitamin D can improve tear quality, reduce dry eye symptoms, and improve the effects of lubricating eye drops.
One study even showed that it reduced inflammation on the eye’s surface.
A deficiency in vitamin B12 has been associated with severe dry eye disease and dry eye pain.
In one study, taking B12 supplements along with artificial tears was found to improve symptoms of dry eye syndrome.
The researchers said that the B12 could help repair the nerves on the outer surface of the eye, which can help reduce the burning associated with the condition.
Lastly, studies have found that taking omega-3 supplements improve dry eye symptoms in people with rosacea and in those with computer vision syndrome.
It helps by reducing the rate of tear evaporation and by reducing inflammation, which alleviates irritation and pain.
In addition to making sure you’re getting plenty of these four nutrients, you’ll be doing your eyes a favor by putting down your smart phone or computer, and turning off the TV.
These devices are notorious for worsening dry eye symptoms.
P.S. One of the most precious things we have is our sight. Which is why, as you age, it’s so important to take care of your eyes. Go here and learn how you can SHEILD your eyesight with these powerful nutrients.
