Question: Does Preserve Mac Forte Advanced contain lutein and zeaxanthin?
Answer: Yes, Preserve Mac Forte Advanced contains 10 mg of lutein and 2 mg of zeaxanthin. This is the natural 5 to 1 ratio found in the eye.

Question: Does Preserve Mac Forte Advanced contain beta-carotene?
Answer: No, Preserve Mac Forte Advanced does not contain beta-carotene. The National Eye Institute reported the results from their AREDS 2 study in May of 2013 and they found that when replacing the beta-carotene from the original AREDS formula with 10 mg of lutein and 2 mg of zeaxanthin that it slows age related macular degeneration even more and reduces risk of vision loss. Research studies have suggested a link between high doses of beta-carotene and increased cases of lung cancer in people who smoke. Replacing beta-carotene with lutein and zeaxanthin makes this formula safe for smokers and increases the effectiveness of the vitamin supplement in slowing AMD.

Question: What is lutein?
Answer: Experts feel that lutein acts like a natural pair of sunglasses. It concentrates in the macula and protects this sensitive area from the ultraviolet rays of the sun. Lutein levels in the macula have been shown to increase when lutein is increased in the diet with the right foods or with proper supplementation.

Question: How does lutein protect the macula?
Answer: Lutein increases the pigment in the macula, and the increased pigment protects against the oxidative forces of the sun. These forces damage the retina and the macula over time.

Question: Do all of these essential supplements act in the same way?
Answer: The items in PRESERVE MAC FORTE ADVANCED all work by interfering with chemicals and forces (oxidation) that harm the macula.

Question: Does smoking accelerate AMD?
Answer: Smoking has been linked to an increased risk for AMD. This is especially true for people who have a certain genetic history in their family.

Question: Are there any treatments for dry AMD?
Answer: There are some treatments being tested; however, currently the only known way to slow the process is with proper vitamin and mineral supplementation.

Question: Do all patients with AMD go blind?
Answer: No, but any person who has AMD can go blind if they live long enough and do not take action to slow the natural progression of the illness.

Question: Can’t I just get enough anti oxidants in my diet so that I do not need supplements?
Answer: There are doctors and nutritionists who feel that you can get everything that you need from your diet. There are others who feel that supplements are essential. My personal belief is that the supplements certainly cannot hurt. Almost all of the best sources are found in foods that usually are cooked. Much of the nutritional value can be lost with cooking, so supplements could be even more important than the nutritional sources because they are not altered by cooking.

Question: What are lutein and zeaxanthin?
Answer: These are two substances that you are likely to hear the most about if you have AMD. These are two chemicals from a group of substances called carotenoids. Carotenes are derived from tuberous plants like carrots, yams, sweet potatoes, and winter squash. There is also a group called xanthophylls and these are derived from plant leaves. The most important xanthophyll for AMD is lutein. Lutein is found in spinach, kale, collard and mustard greens, and egg yolks. Plants make other types of xanthophylls; however, lutein is the only one that accumulates in the eye. Zeaxanthin is much like lutein and together they help produce a richer and more vibrant pigment in the retina. This helps protect the macula from further degeneration.

Question: I have read about something called drusen. What exactly is drusen?
Answer: Drusen is the name of the damaged spots in the macula. A drusen is a yellowish spot that forms indicating that there is an area of damage. Sunlight is particularly harmful to the retina and can cause drusen. Both lutein and zeaxanthin help filter out the most harmful ultraviolet blue spectrum of sunlight. This helps reduce additional damage.

Question: You said that lutein helps make pigment. What exactly does that mean?
Answer: There is a very rich pigment that covers the back of the eye. This pigment is protective. Lutein is important because it determines the thickness of the yellow macular pigment layer. Yellow lutein is located in a layer covering the all important rods and cones of the retina. Thus this layer protects these highly sensitive areas from the damage of unfiltered sunlight. The thicker and richer this layer becomes, the more protection that is offered against the oxidative damage of sunlight.

Question: What else can I do besides wear good sunglasses and take the proper nutritional supplements?
Answer: Most experts recommend a number of things to slow the progression of AMD. You should stop smoking immediately if you are a smoker. You should be on vitamin and mineral supplementation. You should see an ophthalmologist every year and more frequently if you detect a change in your vision. You should drink less alcohol. Lastly you need a good pair of sunglasses that have UV protection. Many sunglasses do not have UV protection. Without this protection, sunglasses offer no help to filter out the damaging rays that speed the progression of AMD.

Question: Should everyone take nutritional supplements to protect against AMD?
Answer: If you are over 50 you should begin by seeing an eye doctor. An ophthalmologist is the best choice for your evaluation. The doctor will look into the back of your eye to see if there is evidence of drusen. Even if there are no drusen, many eye doctors recommend starting a program involving dietary supplements. If there is a family history of AMD, you should begin supplements. In addition you should begin supplements even before the age of 50 if you have a diet that is lacking in the items listed previously.

Question: I hear a lot about free radicals. What are free radicals?
Answer: Research has shown that the activity within the cells of the body produces a type of oxygen that is quite reactive and unstable. This oxygen is called a free radical. This unstable oxygen is essential for the body to be able to fight outside infections or to reduce areas of inflammation within the body. Unfortunately these free radicals also can cause harm to some other chemicals of the body like proteins, lipids, and even all-important DNA. Because there is a very high level of lipids in the area of the eye called the retina, it is particularly sensitive to the damaging effects of free radicals. These free radicals cause oxidation and that leads to damage. That is why the protective supplements are called ANTI OXIDANTS. Their mission is to reduce the level of excess free radicals. This in turn leads to a slowing of the macular damage.

“I found it [Preserve Mac Forte Advanced] on the Internet and started reading about it and decided I need to try this. I had been  diagnosed 5 years ago with macular degeneration and I had been to a specialist for cataracts.  I looked on the Internet and found this and thought that this sounds like something that would really help me.

I’ve been using it about 5 months.  I want to tell you that in between times I had gone to another specialist.  Six weeks after I started taking Preserve Mac Forte my  eyesight had changed tremendously.

When I went to the first doctor in May he told me my eyesight was 20/70 and 20/60. When I went to the next doctor 6 weeks later after taking Preserve Mac Forte my eyesight had gone back to 20/40 and 20/30. I was pleased.  That had been the prescription in my glasses the last two years so I continued taking Preserve Mac Forte.   I had been taking another vitamin but it wasn’t doing what this did.

I believe the mixture of vitamins and minerals is what is helping my eyes.   I told two of my doctors already that I was taking this and they both wanted to know where they could get it.  They thought about prescribing this to other patients or at least telling them about  it. “

-Janice Sims, Montgomery, Indiana

“I was having quite a bit of problems at night driving at the time and I went immediately on the Preserve Mac Forte and right after I started on it, I had an improvement in vision and have been on it ever since.  So that would be approximately 4 years and it has improved my vision considerably.

I had a break in the use of it for about a month and I started having a problem with one eye.  It was like there was a light in the left eye… like a center vision problem… just a small central vision problem there, but I got right back on it and everything straightened right back up.

There is quite a bit of difference because I was having to use my glasses and there was blurriness in my vision at that time, but now I can sit and watch television with no vision problem at all without my glasses.

All I know is that within a month’s time I realized dramatic improvement in my vision and it has done nothing but help me from the moment I started taking it, and all I can say to anyone is to try it.  I would like to tell you that I appreciate how you have serviced this account.  You are excellent on servicing it. “

“My mother had macular degeneration and was blind.  It started in her 70′s.  The doctor told her it was hereditary.  One day I decided to get on the computer and look up macular degeneration and I happened to come across Preserve Mac Forte.  I thought, if I could start taking this then possibly I would not have the problem.  So I decided to start taking it.  I took 2 in the morning and 2 in the evening.  This was 3 years ago.  After 6 months I noticed that my glasses were really bothering me.  So I went to my eye doctor and he told me my eyes were better.  My glasses went down one step.  I continued taking it and after a year I regressed back 2 pairs of glasses.  I went back to my doctor and he said he could not believe what had happened.  I would like for other people to know that Preserve Mac Forte works.  If anyone is skeptical about trying Preserve Mac Forte I would say don’t hesitate and take it immediately.”

“I found the product on the Internet.  I tried  Preserve Mac Forte because of reliability of the source and have been using it about 10 months.  The thing I like most is the ease of taking.  I have tried other products, but this has more ingredients to help my eyes.   I have already had a friend change to this product.  Our doctor also suggested my husband take one pill per day as a precaution.  I have macular degeneration and so far this [product] has helped to stabilize the progression.”

-Mrs. R. Scott Patton, Jasper, TN, Age: 82

“I heard about this product from a friend.  I decided to try it because my friend had good results.  I starting using Preserve Mac Forte in November of 2008 and what I like most is that it seems to be helping my condition.  The improvement that I have experienced is the macular degeneration has not progressed since first found.  I would tell people who are thinking about trying Preserve Mac Forte that originally I was somewhat skeptical, but would recommend to try it for 6 to 8 months and see if it helps you.”

-Dennis Reeder, Morrow, Georgia, Age: 75

“The thing that first attracted me is the fact that the doctor who has made the vitamins to help me has [AMD], so I think someone is very understanding of something if they have it themselves.  I know I have gotten my medicine when I was supposed to the whole time and I’ve been thankful about taking it.  Everybody has been really, really nice to me. I couldn’t say anything bad about this company at all.   It’s not that expensive because the doctor that I talked to in Abington, VA about it said that you need to continue taking that because sometimes you get really expensive stuff and what you have is not that expensive so it is something that is affordable.”

-Joyce Ann Patton, Cedar Bluff, Virginia
