Eye Health in modern times eyes are deteriorating too soon yeah now you have some short range muscles and long range muscles in your eyes the short range of course get you look at short long at long and by the age of 11 those muscles are set now eye doctors are very being very concerned today having overexposure to short range and underexposure to long range one old doctor he made the statement he said we should spend more time looking at the mountains clouds tops of trees birds flying in the air so if your job is at
a computer ideally every hour you should go and do a bit of long range viewing and ideally if your job is on a computer no computer at night you've had enough eyes need to have if anything over long range and under short range top 10 ways to improve our health number one one best exercise for the eyes rebounding strengthens the eyes exercise increases blood supply to the eyes the reason rebounding strengthens the eyes is when you rebound you increase blood supply more efficiently and effectively through the whole body but the particular exercise that strengthens the
eyes is when you rebound you focus on something so if every 10 seconds on the rebound rebounding you you keep changing your focus can you see how that is strengthening the muscles in your eyes next is sunshine sunshine strengthens the eyes too in his book better eyesight without glasses Dr William Bates he said Sunshine every day we should let our eyes be exposed to the Sun never should we look at the sun our eyes will tell us that but isn't it nice to look at the early morning in the late afternoon sun and what Dr
Neil nedley found is that that resets our cadium Rhythm that's why I can tell you I've been in the US 2 weeks one night I woke at 2 a.m. and couldn't sleep again so I conquered my jet lag how by implementing these laws I went out in the sunshine you even can just go out with your eyes closed and then you can put your head up to the sun and the Rays from the sun will go through the skin and then you can put your head down and open your eyes and your eyes will be
used to the sun then what Dr Neil nedley found was that the eyes are a window to the brain and that your eyes are an extension of your brain so when the ultraviolet rays from the Sun go through neurochemical Pathways and hit the pineal gland it resets your body clock so I found it a great remedy for jet lag is to let your eyes be outside in the sunshine your cadium rhythm is the Rhythm that your brain and thus your whole body runs at and that Sunshine especially the first hour of light in a day
that helps to reset your body clock also helps you to sleep better at night so your eyes need sun because your eyes are taking the sun through to the brain you see your eyes are an extension of your brain so your brain needs sun and your brain gets Suns through the eyes and Sun strengthens eyesight since sunlight can benefit our health should you wear sunglasses Barbara explains various situations where wearing sunglasses may or may not be the best choice let's say you're going out into a hot summer day and you've got sunglasses on the eyes
can't give a message to the brain whereas if we go outside on a hot sunny day the strength of the sun is being monitored by the eyes and the message is sent to the brain and when the sun is very hot and very strong it gives a message to the skin to close up little recept sites so you don't burn so easily but if you go out into hot sun with sunglasses on you can burn a lot easy because your brain didn't get the message that the sun's hot to close the little recepto sides sunglasses
are not good for eyes but here are some situations where sunglasses would be helpful now if someone's going to be driving in the city all day sunglasses can certainly help if someone's going to go skiing white snow Blue Sky strong Sun they will need sunglasses because the glare from that snow can burn their eyes so common sense is necessary hydration eyes need you to be well hydrated use of water drinking adequate water helps to nourish the cells in the eyes and keep that fluid around them plenty of sleep eyes need you to sleep for 8
hours a night ideally starting at about 9:00 reducing stress is important stress anxiety can weaken eyesight one of the biggest stress to the eyes is technology eyes also need you to reduce your technology time that's one of the biggest eye weakness William Bates also showed that we need to stop the stimulants because they are dehydrating not only the body but the eyes he also showed how sleeping at night is essential for the eyes a lot of eyes are deteriorating too young today because of too much time on technology but also that our eyes are observing
technology when they should be asleep that really weakens eyes now let's discuss cataracts which are most commonly related to aging cataracts often develop due to Natural changes in the eyes as we get older however they can also result from other causes such as eye injuries or surgeries for other conditions like glaucoma glaucoma is a group of eye diseases that can lead to vision loss and Blindness by damaging the optic nerve at the back of the eye Barbara explains there may be natural remedies to heal our eyes and there is a way that you can get
rid of cataracts and that is one drop of castor oil wiped over the eyelid it'll go through the lashes the castral will penetrate in through the eyelid and also into the eye through the lashes Castrol penetrates deeper than any other oil and wherever it penetrates it breaks up unnatural formations which a cataract is I've had several people get back to me and testify that their cataracts are going by doing the Casto usually you would do it twice a day glucoma can also be benefited by the castol on the eye if the person is almost blind
from cataracts yeah have the surgery but if it was me I'd probably do the castor oil for a month or two and see if that helps before we dive into the essential nutrients for our health let's first explore a simple and effective home remedy for an eye wash so there is an eye wash that is very beneficial for Sore Eyes for for bloodshot eyes for dry eyes and this can also be used for glooma it's um a half a teaspoon of golden seal and a half a teaspoon of ibrite and one cup of boiling water

because of a high acid diet that many people are living today with a lot of sugars a lot of caffein a lot of starches cereals breads the body releases calcium phosphate to neutralize the acidity and that calcium phosphate can build up as crystals in the kidneys in the gore bladder on the eyes cataracts Barbara further explains why we should avoid modern wheat your eyes nose ears and mouth are all connected by ustation tubes there is some foods that cause a blockage of those tubes and when those tubes are blocked it can affect the eyes it
can affect the ears it definitely can affect the sinus and it's wheat and dairy and refined sugar can certainly feed that along the wheat has been hybridized it's not the wheat the original wheat you can get some original Wheats it's spelt and kamut they are from the original wheat they have not been hybridized if someone is celiac that means severe gluten intolerance they can't even have that but most people who are Gluten Sensitive or gluten intolerant they can usually handle the spelt and the Kut now on to three types of foods we should eat to
strengthen our eyes the cells in the eye need nutrition proper diet is nourishing the eyes do you know that gloma and cataracts all diseases of the western world it's purely reflected on the diet that people are eating so what should we be eating we should be eating a diet that's high and fiber so all plant foods have fiber so your plant-based diet's fiber generous amounts of protein because every membrane around every cell is 50% protein the body needs amino acids to build new cells so we need protein and the best protein the cleanest burning fuel
protein is legumes and nuts and seeds so legumes that's lima beans blackeyed beans canalone beans chickpeas lentils soy soy is only a problem if it's been genetically modified and great fats because the membrane around every cell in the body is 50% fat your best fats are your avocado your nuts your seeds and also a little coconut oil or olive oil but isn't Co out of saturated fat there is no proof that saturated fat cause heart disease did you know that so they're your three essential food groups your fiber there's your vegetables all your plant your
