General Health Recommendations

 

 

 

  

You are what you eat!

 

Good medicine assesses the entire person rather than focusing on seperate body systems.  Good medicine focuses on prevention and looks to correct the root cause of illness through diet, nutrition and lifestyle.

 

The scientific literature has told us for a long time that fruits and vegetables are the most important fuel we can put in our bodies to make a difference in terms of prevention and health.  We now also know that nutrition plays a significant part in preventative eye health as well.  Zeaxanthin and  lutein (carotenoids found in dark leafy veggies) are now recommended for macular degeneration;  omega-3 fatty acids are shown to have significant preventative benefits for dry eye and glaucoma.   For more information on how to supplement your daily needs, refer to www.beardenjuiceplus.com
