    The Eye Hormone

    You’ve very likely heard of this antioxidant. But I’ll bet you didn’t know that your eyesight depends on it.

    You see, your eyes are very sensitive. And they’re under constant attack from free radicals that can lead to Age Related Macular Degeneration (AMD), the leading cause of blindness for Americans.

    Fortunately, your eyes have a barrier around your retina for protection. A single layer of cells called your retinal pigment epithelium (RPE).

    Today I’m going to show you how to use the natural hormone that doubles as an antioxidant to strengthen your RPE. That way, you can keep reading, driving, watching your favorite shows, and recognizing the people you care about no matter how old you are.

    “Dr. Sears, Are You OK?”

    When I realized my new sleep remedy worked so well, I got excited thinking about all of my patients who can finally sleep better. Patients like Al, a 59-year old executive who travels so much, his body’s confused from all of the time-zone changes.

    Then there’s Pamela, a single mom and working woman. She’s so stressed about paying the bills and having enough time for her son, she often lies awake at night. As she puts it, “I can’t seem to shut off my brain!”

    And Carol, a sweet woman in her early 70s who always comes to her appointments showing the latest pictures of her grandchildren. She seems relaxed and loves retired life, but she can’t sleep more than five hours a night.

    Chances are you know what it’s like to wake up groggy in the morning, wishing you slept more. The simple truth is, missing a good night’s sleep is not good for your overall health and vitality.

    I’m Happy I Overslept

    It was 8 o’clock straight up. My son was waking me. I was scheduled to play tennis at 6:30 a.m. Oops! I had overslept and missed tennis for the first time ever.

    Once I got over the initial surprise, I was elated. I had slept like a baby. But I didn’t wake up woozy or in a daze. My mind was clear.

    Why was I happy about this?

    The night before, I had tried something different. A new liquid formula I’ve been developing. It contains a powerful ingredient from the bark of the Jamaica dogwood tree. I first learned of this extract while visiting my friend and Jamaican herbalist Ivy Harris late last year…
