Little-known herb improves macular degeneration in just 2 weeks.
…. The latest research shows a
strong connection between the most popular over-the-counter drug in
America and macular degeneration. Avoiding aspirin can substantially
decrease your risk of getting this terrible disease. But if you already
have it, there's a little-known herb that can fight this disease. It's
so effective that it can begin to improve your vision in as little as
two weeks.
The new research comes from a human clinical trial in Australia. Sydney University's Professor of Neurology Jonathan Stone studied 25 macular degeneration sufferers. He divided them into two groups and gave both groups either a placebo or 20 mg of the herb saffron for three months. After the three months, he switched what each group was taking without them knowing and continued to give them their new tablets for another three months.
Stone tested all 25 of the participants for neuron electrical conductivity in the macula and retina after they took the saffron. Amazingly, 23 showed significant improvement. Those same 23 also reported they could see much better.
What's more, their visual improvement began after only two weeks on the herb. What I found particularly interesting about this study was what happened to the first group that took saffron. When they started taking the placebo (without knowing), they complained that their improved eyesight was beginning to diminish again. And to confirm these results, the group taking the placebo first didn't experience any change for three months. Then, once they started taking the saffron, they said they were seeing much better.
Professor Stone noted that saffron works by influencing the neuron's genetic code. It helps it restore its capacity for healing neuron cells. That means this herb could help a lot more than just macular degeneration. It could help any condition caused by neurological conditions, including Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease.
Unfortunately, saffron isn't very common and it's very expensive. That's because the growers have to plant each bulb by hand. Then they have to harvest the three crimson stigmas or saffron threads from each flower by hand. But you can find it at some health food stores and online. The 20 mg used in this study is the recommended dose.
If you decide to try saffron, please let me know how it works for you. This is new research that could be groundbreaking for this eye disease - and many other neurological problems.

Parabens? ...say What?
My Trip to a beauty supply chain store was very interesting indeed.
Not so much about all the merchandise; Although, finding a
knowledgeable sales rep - is an other issue. I asked a sales rep if she
had any " paraben free color cosmetics?" She looked at me as if I
had a 3rd eye in the middle of my sculpted brows. OMG! She didn't even
know how to pronounce the word "PARABENS" let alone leading me to
the right area of the vast cosmetic counter. Anyway, beauty is not
just about finding the right color, it's about finding healthy
cosmetics that will have natural rejuvenating effects...color or
not... Not so many Big Brand sellers offer that..and that is why big brands are not doing well when competing against brands that are offering free of "parabens" and preservatives. There
is NO competition out there that can compare with a clean beautiful
color cosmetics. Purchasing these elite products are moving toward a
"new" face in beauty. ...and there is no proof that your $128 face cream
will make wrinkles disappear - but it is a well -know fact that
"Parabens" are a highly toxic preservatives that may even increase
aging to the skin. Your challenge is finding paraben free makeup and
giving natural a chance! Not sure why or how? EYE ON BEAUTY - Learn
about color and cosmetics that are better for your face and body.
