I bought a supplement off of Amazon out of desperation the other day, without doing my research– now in retrospect watching this video, it looks like I may have made a good choice.. but time will tell.. thank you for the great video. Also I’m sure you probably won’t see this comment, but if you do, I highly recommend you read the book The Eyes of the Overworld by Jack Vance.. I mean if you ever have time to read something for fun, Herr Doctor!
I always read the ingredients listed in the supplement. I don’t like seeing Sorbitol and Sorbitan (what kind?) in Blink. FDA says it is generally safe to eat it. But I’ve read avoid eating fruit with it, because of fructose. FDA’s "Generally" means to me it’s ok, but no long study research on it.
how on earth do you swallow those huge capsules?

મને આ ડો.વિડીયો જોવો ગમે છે, કારણ સ્ટ્રેઈટ અને સ્પસ્ટવાત કરે છે.
I took Lutein 20mg and started having vertigo. When I stop, y vertigo went away. It was a scary experience.
Another good one.
Can taking lutein and zeaxanthin improve your vision? I started taking them a few weeks ago and I feel like it’s harder to see out of my glasses now. I have an appointment for a vision check
Dr Allen is handsome, passionate about optometry and oftalmology and brilliant wits to share with us. Thanks for helping us to see a better world ❤
Research shows it doesn’t get past gut barrier and only helps the gut. Taking pepper to injure the tissue isn’t really a smart way to take meds. Circumin is not meant for the blood. Good for gut.
Supplement industry is unregulated to a degree. You’d be shocked at what we are paying good money for when these are tested for content, potency, and efficacy.
can you recommend some affordable vegan eye supplements? my dr said to get omega 3s but it’s all so confusing about the ratios
What about krill oil
Thank you for sharing information. I’m concerned about sunflower oil in Doctor’s Best supplement capsules. Isn’t sunflower oil bad for us because of the extraction process?
video claims that this method can help to nourish and repair the lens, release pressure, and correct the enlarged eye. https://youtu.be/xOdLGRgk5no?si=lf05Hwc_oroxamBC is it really correct ? Plz reply
Many thanks for this video! 🎉😊
I wish we could get Blink Nutri Tears in Canada
Basically an advertisement for supplements that this guy makes money off when you go buy them by clicking on the links below.
Vitamin C and B complex for me
Thank you so much, great info. What type/brand of Creatine do you take, it looks like a powder from the video.
I love your videos. They are very informative thank you for uploading this information.
5 grams creatine he meant not milligrams
Thank you! For what it’s worth I have found I have to be careful with fish oil supplements because they will increase my bleeding times. This may also be a factor of age (I’m 76), but I ha e gone off and on fish oil many times and the pattern repeats. Not that one should avoid them, just a cautionary note.
Thanks for the eye health info Doc. I’m wondering if these vitamins will help my diabetic eye disease plus I was recently diagnosed with cataract and I don’t want to do surgery on my eyes if I can avoid it.
What about floaters?
9:00 ummm.. you say 1000IU per day, then show tablets with 5000IU?
What is the nano curcumin you take
Thank you i always watch your eye advice ❤
Do you have any thoughts on omega 7?
Thank you for the great info
For those of us on Brimonidine tartrate

Apo-travoprost time pq
Are there replacement meds for glaucoma that do not raise glucose levels?
Thank you
Hi doctor dono if ull read this bt ive hit a wall and never in my life ive not had answers for my questions , wont bore u with my years of story
Bt long story short
Ive had hairfall to a point where started seeing baldness , stopped giving f about it and started having dry eye symptoms , doctor recommeded fishoil , life changed, hair started growing like magic and dryness stopped until i lost 19kgs from cycling in 6mnths
In present im in a experiment phase where im done and really cnt understand wat to do
As dry eye started happening once i lost weight
Im consuming vitamin e , a , fishoil 1300mg 1 capsule on a daily basis and ive come to know i lack in vitamin d so i consume 60000iu vitamin d once a week
Nothing seems to work like it did back when i jst consumed 1 fishoil nothing else
I drink 4 litre water daily btw , it helped in beginning and than the effect stopped
I consumed 2 fishoil for a week and it had improvement and than it stopped so i came down to 1 by fear as i have high uric acid
Pls help if anyone has any idea of why tf my body is not responding anymore
I’d do anything at this point for dryness to stop , the day dryness cures my hairfall wud go better i know it for a fact
taurine
Could you please make a video on bilberry? I don’t hear people talk about this one much and I can’t take most eye supplements due to a ragweed allergy (most are sourced from marigolds which is related to ragweed). Thank you and love your videos!
i used allot lutein/zeaxanthin but it does nothing for eyes
Can Topical Retin A around the eyes cause blindness or affect eyesight
Why about VitaminB3 for glaucoma?
Love your shows, very informative! I have been taking Doctor’s Best Lutein per your recommendation. One thing I would like to pass onto you is that wearing sunglasses and using sunscreen is not healthy. We have been lied to regarding the sun. Please, please research this….thank you for all of your helpful information, I look forward to your video’s.
Planet Ayurveda continues to impress me with their herbal range. These Bilberry Capsules are a must-have for healthy vision!
I recall your commitment to providing detail about specific DHA forms and differences among them. I wonder if you came across the discussions from Jack Kruse regarding DHA in the SN-2 position, addressing this matter from a neurosurgeon’s perspective.
are curcumin and cumin the same?
Do you take any vitamins or supplements? What do you take and why?
If you take vitamin D supplement make sure you are getting annual blood work that test you blood chemistry. I was low on vitamin d and within 3 months of daily supplement of d3k2 I retested and was now high which is not good for you.
I take Omega 3s, Vitamin D3/K2, Plant Sterols, Eye Health Vitamins, Digestive Enzymes and Astaxanthin occasionally. Have had eye surgery a few years ago and nearsightedness for years. Also have elevated cholesterol so take the Omega 3s and Plant Sterols regularly besides adjusting my diet.
I have been diagnosed with early Cataract and Glaucoma eye diseases. I am interested. 🎉❤ your eyes looking good. 😮🎉❤
Did I read that right $1200 for one of them bottles??
These recommendations are excellent, but I can’t help if multivitamins have gone by the wayside.
Unfortunately, the Best Doctor’s Lutein has a bad seed oil, Sunflower Oil. Very bad for our brain health. Doctors don’t care just putting in a cheap gross oil.
Sometimes my left eye hurts and it’s weaker than my right and even looks lazy sometimes. I think it’s a migraine but wanted to see if you had any thoughts based on those symptoms.
