Re: HELP-deteriating eyesight in 8 year old

[Guest guest]

Eyes are very prone to oxidative stress....Children with autism have a

LOT of internal stress.

Oxidative stress burns up for example omega 3 fatty acids. The retina is

30% DHA which is an essential fatty acid so I would supplement with DHA

for starters......

Also Vitamin A, such as retinol palmitate.

I have been researching 'Iodine' lately and I believe it helps to reduce

the oxidation of Essential Fatty Acids so I would get some of that also.

You can try 'Thyadine' from www.Mandimart.com.

Give your daughter also anti-oxidants like zinc, Vitamin C etc.

I am glad you are keeping an open mind:-))

There is a book by Dr Bates called Better eyesight without glasses.. he has a lot of interesting information about eye health.. perhaps there is something there. I know that he recommends using pinhole glasses.. a pair of glasses with solid lenses.. except for tiny pinholes .. looking through them forces the muscles in the eyes to work more effectively.

 

I know that if my yeast levels are high or if I have had too much sugar or simple carbs.. my eyes deteriorate short term.. changing diet and watching what I eat makes a rapid difference.. when I am not eating properly my irises in my eyes look dull.. when I eat properly they are very brilliant colours.

 

The other thing that can affect eyesight is liver toxicity... many of the common meds like movacol etc are very toxic to the liver... so perhaps look too at the meds your daughter is taking.

 

The cells in the eye.. like the corneas completely regenerate every 48 hours.. so as soon as you change the cellular health in her eyes.. it is possible for her eyes to improve... many kids now days spend a lot of time looking close up.... and they need to be focussing on things further away for periods of time too.

 

 

Best Wishes

Hi

Thanks for your advice.My ds is not on the spectrum(my son is though).

She does take fish oils and probiotics daily but nothing else ,so I will add in

the other supplements you recommended.

I was wondering whether triquench could replace the thyadine from Mandi,as I

have some of this already?

Also you mentioned retinol palmitate-any idea of dosage-again I have biocare's

vit a in the cupboard,but not sure how much to dose as the labels fallen off!

TIA

Hi Tracey

I will look into the book you mentioned.

I found what you said about yeast and your eyes very interesting as I had

gestational diabetes when I was expecting my daughter.

She does suffer from bloating after meals.I started her on gse today(she already

takes probiotics)

She had really bad asthma as a toddler and at her worst was hospitalised about 4

times in 3 months with this (this completely resolved with dietary

intervention,but I have slacked on this over the last couple of years,so do need

to look more carefully at her diet again)

thanks for your advice

HI Majida

Not suggesting you buy this, but perhaps if you read the ingredients it might be useful regarding possible supplements from Nutri/ Mandi etc

Forever Lving Products do a Forever Vision product which they developed for eyesight - it may give a few ideas to see what they included, as they do extensive research
