Adequate vitamin C levels also shorten recovery time after illness and helps speed up the wound healing process.

Vitamin C is also essential for the production of collagen, so growing children need plenty of vitamin C in order to build strong connective tissue foundations.  The long-term consequences of childhood vitamin C deficiency include poor skin integrity (stretch marks, loose or sagging skin, acne, increased scaring, early skin wrinkling, etc) and reduced tendon, ligament and cartilage strength and resilience.

BioBalance Crystal Vision™ is a unique liquid formulation of six herbal extracts in a non-alcoholic base, supporting healthy eye function and visual clarity. Nourishing the eyes with lutein, zeaxanthin and anthocyanins, Crystal Vision™ is a tonic for eye fatigue and electronic screen exposure. It supports blood circulation, lubrication, healthy nerve supply and natural resistance to oxidative stress.

Support For

• Clear vision
• Antioxidant eye protection
• Eye lubrication
• Blood flow & nerve supply
• Eye fatigue and electronic screen exposure

In today’s work and home environments our visual field is often restricted to the computer, tablet and smartphone for much of the time. Occupational hazards include eye strain, dry eyes, deteriorating vision and screen fatigue.

Crystal Vision™ is designed to nourish your eyes with lutein, zeaxanthin, anthocyanins and other well-researched eye-specific antioxidant nutrients. These plant pigments support macular health and natural resistance to age-related eye dysfunction.

Lutein and zeaxanthin are two carotenoid pigments that occur naturally in many plants, and are found in high concentrations in the macula of the eye. A third carotenoid in the macula, called meso-zeaxanthin, can’t be obtained from food sources and is created in the retina from ingested lutein. A good supply of these antioxidant nutrients is critical for maintaining healthy eye function, and the same nutrients are also strongly linked to healthy brain function and cognitive performance.

Crystal Vision™ includes New Zealand blackcurrant extract with high levels of the antioxidant plant compounds called polyphenols. Among these are anthocyanins, the dark red flavonoid pigments supporting maintenance of normal blood flow and blood pressure within the eyes. New Zealand blackcurrants are superior to both bilberries and blueberries for overall antioxidant activity and levels of vitamin C.

Published results from several research studies into the effect of blackcurrant supplementation show good outcomes for maintenance of the visual field and physiological indicators of eye health.

There are five other herbs in the Crystal Vision™ formula. Calendula flowers and dandelion greens both supply lutein and zeaxanthin within their nutrient-dense herbal repertoire. Ginkgo leaves circulatory and neuro-protective support, while eyebright’s name says it all – this is a specific herb for eye health. Liquorice root nourishes the membranes and supports healthy stress response mechanisms.

A tonic for managing the strain and stress of electronic screen exposure, Crystal Vision™ supports circulation and capillary integrity, lubrication, healthy nerve supply and the natural immune defences in the eyes. Its high antioxidant concentration helps protect the cells from free radical damage.

This herbal combination provides essential nutrients for healthy eye function, holistically balanced in their natural plant form. To help maintain bright eyes and clear vision.
