Macular Degeneration
The macula, part of the retina at the back of the eye, is responsible for taking light and colour back to the brain. Any scarring to this tissue which affects these nerves will result in macular degeneration.
Several factors may induce the scarring of macular degeneration including:
- Infection with pathogenic organisms (bacteria, viruses, fungus/Candida and parasites)
- Toxins such as metals (mercury, lead, arsenic etc), chemicals (pesticides, herbicides, food additives etc) and radiation ( UV, microwave radiation from DECT phones, mobile phones and masts etc)
- Diabetes Mellitus
- Short-sightedness
- Drugs including those for heart disease, high blood pressure, antidepressants and not forgetting steroids both orally and locally in the eye
- Artificial sweeteners and sugar substitutes such as aspartame, NutraSweet, sorbitol etc
- Nutrient deficiency especially of amino acids, vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids of Omega 3 and 6 and flavonoid anti-oxidants
- Contact lens trauma especially cleaning and storage solutions and including day disposables
Conventional treatment includes potent drugs and laser treatment both of which have the usual unwanted side-effects with the dubious results.
The natural treatment of macular degeneration will include addressing the cause/causes which trigger the scarring as well as to ensure all the factors for proper support are in place including regular aerobic and resistance exercise, an adequate intake of essential amino acids, vitamins, minerals and omega 3 oils, as well as both soluble and insoluble fibre from fruit, vegetable and whole grains, adequate intake of water as well as exposure to sunlight to ensure repair of the affected tissue.
An Integral Health DNA Hair Test not only can identify the cause/causes of an imbalance in the body and the potential for signs and symptoms of disease; we are also able to provide the best nutrient and lifestyle recommendations specifically tailored for each unique individual, helping to ensure they are able to achieve optimum health - naturally.
It is a blueprint for healthy living.
