| Everybody knows that a good supply of necessary nutrients is
very important to our physical well-being. It is not just the eyes
that need nutrients, our whole body needs them in order to be healthy.
However, we will only emphasize here the nutrients that are important to our
eyes.
Vitamin A or Beta Carotene, Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin), Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Magnesium, Selenium, Zinc... You can get this information from many other health-related websites so we are not going to elaborate on them here. Some good multi-vitamin/multi-mineral products will provide you with the necessary nutrients on this level. We would like to draw your attention to some natural foods which can bring you special health benefits, especially to your eyes. |

Eye conditions that Chrysanthemum Flower can help are CMV retinitis, retinal degeneration, retinal vein occlusion, retinal hemorrhage, diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration and retinitis pigmentosa. Chrysanthemum Flower both nourishes the eyes and clears heat from the eyes. It does not treat the underlying causes of inflammation and damage to the eyes, but it does help the eyes to heal from such damage and it helps to maintain normal eyesight. It is recorded in early Chinese herbal books that chrysanthemum relieves headaches, fever and cataract, and also works effectively as an antidote and stomachache. Chrysanthemum contains 1.5% refined oil, adenine, betaine, golden pigment, vitamin A and vitamin B1, and with these components, headaches caused by the flu, dizziness, bloodshot eyes, and furuncle can be annulled.
According
to the Chinese Herbal Theory, its functions include:
Chrysanthemum has also been known to clear the brain. When sleeping with dried chrysanthemum under the pillow, the forgetfulness and memory loss will improve, leaving a clear mind. Also, chrysanthemum tea is highly recommended for people with somber eyes caused by slight fevers. For students and mental workers, it can be a medicinal herb for overly stressed people with constant migraines. Furthermore, it is renowned for clarifying the skin, relieving coughs and neuralgia and working as an antidote. It works wonders as a relaxing
drink, with chrysanthemum leaves steeped in hot water and a spoonful of
honey.
Recommended Usage Put 10-15 dried chrysanthemum flowers into a cup of hot water. Add a spoonful of honey and let it sit for about 10 minutes. Take it as tea. Drink this for 2-3 times a day. It is a wonderful drink in which you will certainly enjoy both the taste and the health benefits. You can also add the chrysanthemum flowers to any other kinds of tea you want. It will provide a wonderful flavor to the tea which you will certainly enjoy. It is best to use the whole flower instead of extract or tincture. The flowers contain many different bioflavonoids, phenols, vitamins, and minerals which will work together synergistically to provide the best health benefits. We do not put this in our OPC*Pro as we know that the whole flower will provide better benefits than the extract. Unlike grapeseed extract and bilberry extract which need a large quantity to produce a small amount of extract that we need everyday, just a small quantity of the chrysanthemum flower is good enough for one day's need.

An excellent value for your health -- not just your eyes. |
