Part of supporting healthy eyes is making sure that they produce sufficient levels of tears. Natural tears help moisturize the surface of your eyes. The lacrimal glands are responsible for secreting these tears‚ but may need additional help promoting cytokine and prostaglandin balance. Fortuntely‚ boosting your intake of EPA and DHA omega-3s may promote improved secretory functioning.
While there are artificial eye drops available‚ you may want to try a supplement that stimulates natural tear production instead. VisionPro EPA/DHA/GLA by Pure Encapsulations provides several essential omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil‚ which may be incorporated into the eyes' lipid layer in order to support viscosity and fluidity. DHA and EPA help maintain the tear film‚ an invisible fluid coating that covers and protects the eyes. They promote visual comfort by encouraging water retention‚ making it less likely that you have to suffer from dry eyes.
In addition‚ each of these softgels also contains cold-pressed borage seed oil‚ which provides GLA (also known as gamma-linolenic acid). GLA may support the formation of healthy tear film by promoting prostaglandin balance and the production of mucin. Mucin is a slimy substance that helps maintain moisture on the ocular surface. Finally‚ VisionPro EPA/DHA/GLA may lessen inflammation in otherwise normally functioning and healthy eyes.
Take three softgel capsules daily‚ with a meal. Every three-capsule serving provides nearly 3‚000 milligrams of fish oil concentrate‚ derived from Norwegian and Chilean anchovies and sardines‚ as well as 75 milligrams of GLA‚ for just 30 calories. At the recommended dosage‚ each 180-softgel bottle of Pure Encapsulations' VisionPro EPA/DHA/GLA should last for about two months.
