POOR
VISION |
 Healthy dieting is
very important
for your eyesight. Vitamin
A is the key to solving many eye problems. You
will know that you do not get enough vitamin A, if you feel that your
night vision is getting worse. You can get beta carotene ( your body
converts beta carotene into vitamin A) with yellow and orange fruits
and vegetables (apricots, mangoes, sweet potatoes, zucchini and
carrots)
and green vegetables (spinach and cabbage)
Glaucoma is
caused by
increased eye pressure and is connected with lack of thiamine
and vitamin A. It is a very common disease in people older than 40. See
your doctor if you experience unclear vision, night blindness and if
you
see a rainbow around bright light. Try dieting and home remedies
only as
an addition to treatments prescribed by your doctor. You can get
thiamine
with meat,
chicken,
nuts, peas and cereal. Other sources of vitamin A are poultry and
eggs.
A cataract is the
clouding of the lens of the eye. It could be a result of the oxidation
process in the lens of the eye. Increase the amount of vitamin C you
get with food. Also riboflavin will help with cataracts. You can get it
with milk, yeast and whole grains.
People
who
suffer diabetes can get an edema of the retina
which is a reason for losing eyesight in some cases. Vitamin C will
help protect your eyes in this case.
You
can get
redness and
sharp pain in your eyes, if you do not get enough
B vitamins.

 Glaucoma:
This is a very effective remedy, but you will get the best results if
you do
it in May using herbs from the new season. Mix 1/2 glass of nettle
and
1
tea spoon of lilly of the valley flowers, add 1 glass of water and let
it sit for 8-9 hours in a dark place, then add 1/2 tea spoon of baking
soda. Use the mix for compresses.
Cataract:
In the very
beginning these compresses will be very helpful: put 1 tea spoon of honey in
1 glass of water and boil it for 5 min.
Sty: If you get sty
often, drink 1 tea spoon of aloe juice
twice a day for 20 days.
 This
remedy
will
help if you
are losing your eyesight, have tired eyes, or want better blood
circulation. Also it will stimulate your eye function.
Prepare 1 glass of very warm water and 1 glass of cold water. Take the
glass with hot water and try to dip your eye in the water, open it and
make movements with your eye and your lid. Do it for 5-10 sec. Then
repeat the same exercise for the same eye in the cold water.Then do the
same exercises in the same order with your other eye. You can repeat
these exercises a few times with each eye but always finish with cold
water. Also every day try to increase the time of each exercise. In 1-2
months you should do it up to 5 min for each eye.
Take a few cabbage leaves, wash them in cold water and boil them until
they become very soft. Let it sit and eat the leaves 3-4 times a day,
drinking the water left from boiling. This will help if you are losing your eyesight.
Take an empty beer bottle, put it on the
floor
and
roll it
with your toes, especially focusing on massage of 2nd and 3rd toes, for
8-10 min. (you can do it even while you are watching TV or reading).
This massage will improve your poor
vision.
 For poor vision: Mix
30 ml of chicory leaves juice, 30 ml of parsley juice, 30 ml of celery
juice and 30 ml of carrot juice/. Drink the mix on empty stomach every
day during the summer (as long as you will be able to find fresh
herbs). Some people completely took off their glasses after a course of
the treatment.

Natural
Vision Correction - Do
Eye
Exercises Work?
|
|
Is there a way to improve you vision through a serious of
eye exercises and do away with your need of glasses or contact? Well,
apparently there is.
You may have heard
about natural vision correction already,
but wrote it off as a myth since you eye doctor never brought it up.
But, if
you think about it, why would a eye doctor tell you of a natural way to
correct
your poor vision? If they did, what would you need them for? There is
such a
thing as exercises that will help you to naturally improve your vision
and
studies that prove that it really works!
Natural vision Correction: What it is
Just like
everything else in your body that is able to move,
your eyes have a series of internal muscles that enable it to focus.
And just
like you can lift weights to improve the performance of your arms
muscles and
run to increase the strength of your legs, there are focusing exercises
that
you can do to increase the performance of your eyes. Over the course of
our
lives, our eyes muscles weaken and our eyesight becomes worse. While
some of
this is due to natural aging, other eye stress factos such as staring
at a
computer screen all day or even a dependency on eye wear has been shown
to make
these muscles weaker over time resulting in blurred and distorted
vision.
Natural vision
correction exercises are a way to help you
strengthen these eye muscles and help you redirect your point of focus.
By
building up these weak muscles, you will find yourself able to see
clearly
without the aid of glasses and you will also prevent further eye muscle
deterioration.
But does it really work?
According to a
study done my two
optometrists (Irwin and Petito: Journal of the American Optometric
Association in 1986) Eye exercises had a 96 percent success rate with
53 percent
of the 96 patients reporting
that their
eye “symptoms were totally eliminated”. This study
went on to say that “there
is an impressive and increasing bodyof evidence attesting to the
trainability
of accommodative function.”
Conclusion
If you do not like
the way you look in glasses and have
been considering Lasik or some other
type of eye surgery, then perhaps you should first consider natural
vision
correction. Imagine, getting the same results that laser eye surgery
will give
you for little or no cost.

| HEALTH TIP |
 You
can save your vision and even improve it with special exercises
because you can train any part of your body where you have muscles. And
there are muscles in your eyes. Try these effective exercises:
Warming
your eyes
with your hands.
Close your eyes and put your hands on them without touching the eyes
themselves. Focus and feel the warmth coming from the center of your
hands to your eyes. Direct the warmth to your eyes for 60 seconds.
Rolling
your eyes.
Close
your eyes and roll them slowly in this order: up, right,
down,
left , then in the opposite direction. Repeat each direction 5-10
times.
Then slightly massage your lids with your fingertips. Then
open
your eyes and blink a few times very fast.
Horizontal
eye
movements. Hold your left arm in front of you and focus
your eyes on the nail of
the middle finger. Move your arm to the left (your left shoulder and
your left arm should be on a straight line) and at the same time follow
your arm with your eyes without turning your head.Then move your left
arm to the right. Follow it with your eyes. Repeat the same exercise
with your right arm. Do it
slowly, 5 times with each arm.
Focusing
your eyes
on your hand. Hold your right arm in front of you and
focus your eyes on the nail of
your middle finger. Move your hand slowly close to your nose, then
slowly move it away. Follow the nail of your middle finger with your
eyes all the time. Repeat the same exercise with your left arm. Do it
10-15 times.

1 potato with the skin, mash
it in a saucer and
