The effect of dietary antioxidant supplementation in patients with glaucoma
Clinical Ophthalmology Jun 04, 2021
Himori N, Inoue Yanagimachi M, Omodaka K, et al. - Researchers conducted the study for analyzing the impacts of a novel supplement containing three food-derived antioxidants (hesperidin, crocetin, and Tamarindus indica) on markers of oxidative stress in patients with glaucoma. Thirty Japanese glaucoma patients were chosen and given 4 tablets with plenty of water twice a day for 8 weeks. The treatment was discontinued, and the participants were observed for an additional 8 weeks. In patients with a high oxidative stress level, an 8-week oral course of antioxidant supplementation was effective. Dietary supplementation may offer promise in the treatment of systemic oxidative stress-related diseases.
