Preventing Blindness (NAPSA)—You may have diabetes and not even know it. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), says that, in addition to the 10.3 million known diabetics, millions more are undi- agnosed. Diabetics live with the terrible knowledge that they will likely go blind someday. “Diabetics need more antioxidant protection than @ healthy persons.” —Dr. Richard A. Passwater Now there is new help for the fight against this leading cause of blindness—antioxidants, such as Pycnogenol (a natural plant extract). Richard A. Passwater, Ph.D., author of Pycnogenol For Superior Health says, “Diabetics need more antioxidant protection than healthy persons. Pycnogenolis the most powerful antioxidant nutrient knownat this time.” Diabetic blindness is caused by blood leaking onto the retina. In five clinical studies, with more than 1,000 patients, Pycnogenol helped seal leaky capillaries. Progression of vision loss was stopped and in some cases vision improved. Antioxidants are not just for diabetics. Pycnogenol, known as the “super antioxidant” helps other antioxidants, such as Vitamins C and E, increase the body’s defenses.
