The Next Best Thing to Night Vision Goggles

For millions of Americans, maintaining healthy night vision is an essential quality of life issue. It is also a critical safety concern, especially when it comes to driving at night. According to the National Safety Council, fatality rates at night are 3x higher than those during the day.

Unfortunately, with age, it is normal for the cornea and the lens of eye to become more sensitive to the glare of oncoming headlights or streetlights. Age-related changes in the eye can also impact contrast sensitivity, which is the ability to discern differences in brightness, making it more difficult to see objects on the roadway at night.

Evidence-based Ingredients to support healthy vision*

Fortunately, the latest research shows that certain nutritional compounds can effectively support healthy night vision. NightSight™ features three leading evidence-based, researched ingredients for support of healthy vision: European Black Currant Extract, Lutein and Zeaxanthin.

European Black Currant Extract -- See Better Night and day with C3G!*

Nature has loaded berries with powerful antioxidants called "anthocyanins." These health-enhancing compounds are the plant pigments that that give these fruits their distinctive purple color. It turns out that anthocyanins are one of nature’s greatest gifts to the eyes and healthy vision.

"C3G helps me see!"

Black currant in particular contains C3G, an especially vision-friendly anthocyanin that has been shown to help replenish rhodopsin, a critical protein found in the retina that absorbs light entering the eye.* Having enough rhodopsin in the eye is vital to seeing in the dark. C3G stands for "Cyanidin-3-glucoside" but you don’t need to remember that, just think "C3G helps me see!"

Help relieve occasional visual fatigue from everyday computer use.*

NightSight™ contains a special European Black Currant Extract produced from black currants that are grown and harvested for maximum content of anthocyanins and C3G. It supplies as much C3G as black currant extract that has been shown in published research to improve dark adaptation and help relieve occasional visual fatigue from everyday computer use.*

FloraGLO^® Lutein—the #1 Doctor Recommended Lutein Brand in America†

Lutein is another vision-supporting pigment that belongs to the family of compounds called "carotenoids."* (Beta carotene is a familiar carotenoid.) Lutein has a strong affinity for the eye. Deposited in the retina, Lutein plays a vital role in keeping the eye healthy by filtering blue-light.* Due to its short wavelength, blue light can be particularly hard on the eye.

Studies show that lutein supports optimal pigment storage in the retina, which is a key to long-term eye health.* This same research has also shown that Lutein helps the eyes recover from glare caused by exposure to bright light.* NightSight™ contains FloraGLO^® Lutein, recognized as the number one doctor recommended eye ingredient in America, thanks to the extensive research it has undergone.

Zeaxanthin—Lutein’s Number One Dancing Partner for Healthy Eyes

Zeaxanthin is a sister carotenoid to lutein. Just like, lutein, zeaxanthin helps build up the "optical density" of eye pigment.* NightSight™ contains lutein and zeaxanthin in the exact amounts and ratio used in a landmark study published in Optometry and Vision Science, which is the official publication of the American Academy of Optometry.

Not just Zeaxanthin, OPTISHARP™ Zeaxanthin

After 6 months of use, this lutein-zeaxanthin combination increased retinal pigment density by an average of nearly 40 percent, while at the same time increasing tolerance to intense glaring light by nearly 60%. NightSight™ features OPTISHARP^® zeaxanthin, which has been shown to support visual performance in low light when teamed up with lutein.*

Bioperine^® for Enhanced Absorption

Absorption is always key to the effectiveness of a supplement, which is why NightSight™ rounds out with Bioperine^®, a patented absorption enhancer. Bioperine^® is a special extract of black pepper that helps nutrients absorb through the GI tract and into the bloodstream.*
