A common side effect of diabetes is diabetic retinopathy, resulting on chronic bleeding in the retina and resulting vision loss.

There are specific nutrients that can help preserve vision by acting as powerful antioxidants, natural anti-inflammatories as well as strengthening the integrity of blood vessels such as omega-3 fatty acids (fish oil), vitamin C, grapeseed extract, taurine, lutein, zeaxanthin, alpha lipoic acid and bilberry.

Other herbs and nutrients such as vanadyl sulfate, gymnema sylvestra and chromium help balance sugar, make the body more insulin sensitive and support the pancreas.
