Terranova Bilberry, lutein astaxanthin complex (eye support complex) 50 capsules

Each Terranova nutritional product  is  enhanced  with its own synergistic complex of botanicals and phytonutrient-rich foods, called Magnifood.

Magnifood ingredients are combined  in a manner  which enhances the body’s  biochemical environment in order to maximise the potential benefits of the  product’s vitamins,  minerals and/or other nutrients.

Many of the  plants used in Magnifood are fresh freeze dried.

Research shows that fresh freeze drying has the unique ability to retain a plant’s enzymes, and is shown to be superior to other drying methods in terms of activity, stability,  solubility and  preservation  of a  plant’s  original fresh chemistry (as it was when the plant was harvested).

Bilberry Fruit

Anthocyanins, the deep blue pigments abundant in bilberries, have been the subject of a great deal of research, especially with respect to their potential applications in maintenance of healthy eyes, circulation and connective tissue.

Bilberry anthocyanins also possess powerful antioxidant properties.

Bilberries have the second highest content of naturally-occurring anthocyanins of any plant currently tested (second only to aronia berries).

Kale

Kale is a potent natural source of eye supportive nutrients such as the antioxidant carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin and sulphur.

Acai Berry

Acai is one of the highest ORAC (oxygen radical absorbance capacity) value fruits with significant levels of vitamin E and anthocyanin flavonoids.

In fact, a 2006 study reported that acai had the highest ORAC value against superoxide radicals of any plant previously tested. Superoxide radicals have a detrimental effect on eye health.
