If you recall the 1972 hit "I Can See Clearly Now," chances are you're at the age where you might not see as clearly as you used to. Throughout our lifetime, molecules in our bodies known as "free radicals" attack our cells, including those in our eyes, leading to vision loss or damage that can cause eye disorders such as macular degeneration and cataracts. Studies have shown that lutein, found naturally in greens such as spinach and kale, can protect your vision, as well as your heart, and defend against many types of cancer. If you don't see yourself eating spinach or kale on a regular basis, try Watkins Vision with lutein* and other vision-protecting vitamins and minerals. Contact me to find out about Watkins customers who've "seen" the difference Watkins Vision can make in their lives. Now that's nothing to blink at!
*Lutein is extracted from marigold, and is listed on the label as marigold flower in Canada.
