What is Doctor’s Best Natural Vision Enhancers

Doctor’s Best Natural Vision Enhancers is a combination of the nutrients most clinically-proven to support vision. This formula includes DHA (docosahexaenoic acid, omega-3), proven indispensable for vision processing in both the eye and the brain. It supplies the xanthophyll carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin, which protects eyes against blue light damage.

Why is Doctor’s Best Natural Vision Enhancers different

Researchers measured the ability of lutein and zeaxanthin supplementation to affect visual processing speed. Visual psychophysics provides a relatively simple and precise means of measuring visual processing speed called the temporal contrast sensitivity function (tCSF). Past study has shown that macular pigment (a collection of xanthophylls, lutein (L), meso-zeaxanthin (MZ) and zeaxanthin (Z), found in the retina) optical density (M POD) is positively correlated with tCSF. This study found similar correlations when testing 1 02 young healthy subjects. As a follow up the researchers randomized 69 subjects to receive a placebo (n=15) or one of two L and Z supplements (n=54). MPOD and tCSF were measured psychophysically at baseline and 4 months.

Neither MPOD nor tCSF changed for the placebo condition, but both improved significantly from supplementation. These results show that supplementation with L and Z can increase processing speed, even in young, healthy subjects.
