Guest guest Posted June 29, 2001 Report Share Posted June 29, 2001 Just happened to see a special on this last night. They showed how some doctors feel that if they tell you there are risks that lets them off the hook as to being responsible to you for any damages. One doctor works on 100 patients a day. That is 200 eyes. 3 minutes for each eye. He was interviewed personally so it was first hand. Know who you are dealing with and what his record is.This is your body. Ask all the questions you have and if they don't have time to answer them go on to the next one. It is imperative that your pupil be the same size or smaller than the laser and that your cornea be thick enough to take it or you will get stuck with permanent halos and blurred lights during the day and the night is even worse. Always get a second opinion and even a third. These eyes have to take you through the rest of your life. It makes it much nicer when you don't have to have someone do everything for you.

Guest guest Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 In recent years, as I sopped up more toxin than I could live with, my eyesight began to trouble me, and work became more of a chore as I struggled to see, especially when tired. After 6 months of de- toxing- I could work OK, but Iwas worried about long term effects of the toxin on my eyes,and still had some central blurring. my regualr eye Dr sent me to a retinal specialist for a digital scan yesterday. Was I suprised! Instead of walking in and getting a scan, the Dr took a full history, and new more than I did about the effect of mold on eyesight. He wanted to know everything- and did a long exam of my eyes. Then he said he did not want to do a digital scan for 2 reasons, the first being that the dye that they inject is safe for most people, but he knew all about the reactibility of people recovering from mold illness, and did not want to subject my body to a substance that I might possibly react to, plus give me yet another thing to de-tox. Plus he said the outcome would not change- that the treatment would remain the same- de-tox to continue with cholestramine- and a re-check in 6 months -to see if my eyesight would improve more. He gave me a VCS test to establish a base line before I left. And told me to avoid mold at all cost. What a nice suprise, to find a Dr totally cogniscient on mold illness! A " potent nuero-toxin " was his descriptive term for the mold. I was a happy camper when I left, especially as he was very pleased with the general health of my eyes. Now I just have to remember to take more of my cholestramine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 Whoa! That is so cool.. Just FYI, many of the nutrients that can act as neuroprotective agents seem, in me, to also help prevent nerve degeneration in the eye it seems. Piracetam, in particular, seems to help prevent the kind of nerve death found in glaucoma. Antioxidants like selenium, CoQ10, idebenone, NAC, alpha-lipoic acid, etc. also may prevent the kind of surface damage that can eventually cause cataracts. Make sure to take eye drops.. like plain saline/artificial tears.. when the mold is bad.. Several times a day. A mask may help your lungs.. Drops are a mask for your eyes.. This stuff called carnosine is also a good thing to take. Both as an oral supplement and as eye drops. Carnosine reduces AGEs - advanced glycation end products, basically, your 'meat' gets 'cooked' and that causes inflammation and stiffness. As you age, more and more of it becomes 'cooked' and it loses flexibility. This causes nearsightedness, heart disease, and hypertension.. among other things.. Its one of the primary reasons we age.. AGE inhibitors - like carnosine, reduce the rate at which this occurs, and in some cases (ALT-711 which is in clinical trials) may even reverse it. Mycotoxins 'age' you.. literally, much faster than you would 'age' otherwise.. Food for thought!

Guest guest Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 Vita-cost.com, I believe it is, sent me a mailing the other day with a vitamin specifically for eye health. There were testimonies how people's eyesight was improved. You may want to do a search for it on their website to see if it's something you want to try.

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 , this subject I know well. As one ages, tendons and muscles can become less resilient, but you can reverse it somewhat for a long time with an anti-aging program. An anti-aging program would also include preventing a lot of the oxidative damage that causes cross linking and loss of flexibility by using more antioxidants, particularly glutathione precursors like selenium and uncooked whey powder, also vitamin C and E and some of the betacarotenes.

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Oh, I meant to say an anti-aging program that increases HGH release and therefore repair, to youthful values, plus the antioxidant program to prevent some oxidative damage.

Guest guest Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 , there will be a minor difference but the glutathione precursors will be there in uncooked goat whey too Duncan > > Duncan > > Would there be a difference if whey came from cow or goat? > > Thanks. > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 , there ae a couple of good wheys and a method to determine how much glutathione precursors are in any of them, here: http://tinyurl.com/cuzcc all good, Duncan > > > Where do you get they whey? > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 6, 2009 Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 Thanks Duncan. Our genuinely fresh goat milk supplier also carries whey. Then i don't have to worry about sugar and soy lecithin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 6, 2009 Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 , a diet of raw why wouldn't make enough glutathione; you need it concentrated unless you ae unusually healthy. I think some companies sell goat whey powder. When you mix it in a glass of water you get more than 5 gallons worth of raw whey in glutathione precursors. Duncan > > Thanks Duncan.
