AHS13 Shilpi Mehta — Nutrition for the Eyes, Brain and Heart: An Eye Doctor's...Ancestral Health Society
Ocular health is strongly connected to systemic body health especially in cardiovascular, neuronal, and inflammatory diseases. The eye is the window to the health of the body and inflammation elsewhere can manifest symptoms in the eye. I suggest an anti-inflammatory Paleolithic inspired diet is likely to improve and possibly prevent ocular diseases such as dry eyes, cataracts, macular degeneration, glaucoma, etc. which have inflammatory origins. I will discuss common ocular conditions that have inflammatory causes, an evolutionary perspective on eye diseases, and offer practical recommendations for food and supplements to optimize eye health, which also help the body, especially the heart and brain.

on things you eat or drink that you know are not
improving your health (coffee, soda, donuts,
desserts, fast food, unhealthy snacks, etc.)?
7. How does your daily diet compare
to what your body needs?
The USDA spent about a
zillion dollars to figure out
the minimum of what our
U.S.D.A., mypyramid.gov
bodies need. The New
Food Pyramid can be a bit
confusing, but let’s simplify
it and answer the question
above.
Following are the requirements for a hypothetical active 35-year-old
woman. If you’re male, you’ll need a bit more. If you’re sedentary or
an older adult, you’ll need a little less.
8. GRAINS VEGETABLES
6 oz. per day 2½ cups per day
6 - 9 servings 4 servings
Furthermore, you should vary your
veggies each week as follows:
FRUITS Dark Green Vegetables = 3 cups weekly
Orange Vegetables = 2 cups weekly
2 cups per day Dry Beans & Peas = 3 cups weekly
Starchy Vegetables = 3 cups weekly
3 - 4 servings Other Vegetables = 6 1/2 cups weekly
MILK MEAT & BEANS
3 cups per day 5½ oz. per day
3 servings 2 - 3 servings
9. OILS & FATS SUGARS
6 tsp. per day Mostly in
your dreams
Note that these should Fats & sugars combined, 265 calories per day
be “good” fats, and that (less than in one 2-oz. Snickers bar, or about
you’re already getting
the same as one small serving of fries)
some of these fats in
your meat and dairy
foods.
Who eats like this?
What’s a Serving?
Bread, cereals, pasta, rice, starchy vegetables Milk, yogurt, cheese
- 1/2 cup whole grain cereal, pasta, rice, corn, potato - 1 cup milk or yogurt
- 1 slice whole grain bread - 1/2 cup cottage cheese
Fruit Dry beans, eggs, fish, meat, nuts
- 1 whole fresh fruit - 2-3 oz. fresh lean meat, poultry, fish
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh fruit - 1/2 cup dried beans
Vegetables - 1 egg
- 1 cup raw, leafy vegetable (iceberg lettuce does not Fats, oils, sweets - use sparingly
count) - Salad dressing, mayonnaise, margarine, butter,
- 1/2 cup chopped vegetable oil, pie, cake, cookies, ice cream
10. Inadequate Nutrient Intake
The Anarem Report reveals that not
a single person out of the 21,500+
people surveyed consumed 100% of
the DV for even any one of the
following ten nutrients:
• Protein • Thiamin
• Calcium • Riboflavin Fiber:
• Iron • Vitamin B-6 The American Cancer Soc., Nat’l.
Cancer Inst., and American Heart
• Vitamin A • Vitamin B-12 Assn. all recommend a daily fiber
intake of 20 – 35 grams. The average
• Vitamin C • Magnesium American gets 7-10 grams per day.
11. The Myth of the Well-Balanced Diet
Close to nature, organic; fresh = picked that day
12. The Myth of the Well-Balanced Diet
Dinner today. Far from nature; fresh = never canned, maybe frozen
13,000-15,000 chemicals added to our food (9-12 lbs./yr./person-USDA)
13. The Nutrients We Expect May Not Be There
% more (less) in organic vs. commercial produce
Wheat Sweet corn Overall average
Calcium 120% 1800% 63%
Iron (15%) 160% 59%

“The research literature contains numerous reports which suggest that natural
vitamin C, for example, has been found to be more effective than synthetic ascorbic
acid. This fact has been recognized for a long time. In 1954, for example, it was
reported that cases of scurvy failed to respond to doses of synthetic vitamin C. A
cure was effected when individuals suffering from scurvy were given a natural food
substance containing vitamin C.” Consumers’ Research magazine
39. Who’s Looking Out for Us?
“Supplements don’t get the same pre-market safety and efficacy evaluations that
drugs get, nor does the FDA set standards to ensure that labels accurately reflect
contents.” Time, July 31, 2000
8 of 21 brands of ginseng tested were found to contain high levels of pesticides.
Many also contained high levels of lead. consumerlab.com website
“The USDA tested ginseng products, and they found that 39 of 43 ginseng-labeled
products on the shelves in health food stores had no ginseng in them.”
UDSA radio report, Sept. 17, 1998
“Out of 13 brands of probiotics bought over the counter, only two matched their
labeled microbiological specifications qualitatively and quantitatively.”
British Medical Journal 312 (7022): 55-6
“Some pills had 10 or 20 times as much active ingredient as others.”

40. The Shaklee Difference
Heritage
1915 – Dr. Forrest C. Shaklee
creates Vitalized Minerals, the
world’s first multivitamin
supplement
1956 – Dr. Shaklee founds a company based on
living in harmony with nature and on the
Golden Rule: Shaklee Corporation
1960 – Shaklee introduces Basic H, one of the first nontoxic,
biodegradable cleaners (biodegradable is not yet a word in the dictionary)
2000 – Shaklee becomes the first company in the world to
obtain Climate Neutral certification, totally offsetting its CO2 emissions
and achieving a net zero impact on the environment
41. The Shaklee Difference
Science
•Over 100 clinical studies published in peer-reviewed
scientific journals such as the American Journal of
Clinical Nutrition, Journal of Applied Physiology,and
the Journal of the American Medical Association.
•Over $250 million invested in research,
development, and testing, resulting in cutting-
edge scientific breakthroughs and patents in
nutrition, skin care, environmentally-friendly
household products, etc.
•Shaklee’s Scientific Advisory Board, internationally
recognized physicians and scientists in the fields of
nutrition, medicine, immunology, cardiovascular
health, etc., provide expert advice and direction.
They are prohibited from endorsing Shaklee.
42. The Shaklee Difference
Purity
•Shaklee’s standards are far stricter than
organic standards. They require purity in the
end product, not just adherence to steps in
the production of raw materials.
•Shaklee performs over 83,000 quality tests
per year (yes, they counted them) on all raw materials and every
significant step of every production run, including every final batch.
That’s 1 test every 6 minutes, 24/7. They don’t have to do recalls.
•Many of the raw materials Shaklee tests,
they reject. Having been rejected by
Shaklee, those contaminated and/or
deficient raw materials are then sold by the
distributor to other manufacturers.
43. The Shaklee Difference
Proof (Pub. in Nutrition Journal, Oct. 24, 2007)
In 2007, a landmark study conducted by
the UC Berkeley School of Public Health
determined that people who took
Shaklee supplements had markedly
better health than people who took
either no supplements or another brand
of multivitamin.
Here are two dramatic examples of
those results. What is not clear in the
charts, however, is that none of the
Shaklee subjects in the test group had
abnormal levels in either of these two
analyses.
Want to be healthier?
45. The Shaklee Difference
The Guarantee
When your products are this good, you can stand
behind them absolutely. This gold seal can be
found on Shaklee products, and it represents our
guarantee—the products are pure, safe, free from
contaminants, and true to the label’s claims. They
have unsurpassed bioavailability and performance.
If you are dissatisfied with any Shaklee product*, for any reason, we
will gladly refund your money. It’s just another
example of Shaklee’s integrity and philosophy.
When you’re committed to the Golden Rule,
you have to do the right thing, even if it costs
money, time and frustration. And Shaklee
does it all with a smile.

•dispersed through the body by the S.M.A.R.T.
system—the most advanced delivery system
available today that puts the right nutrients in
the right place at the right time;
•conceived and created by a company with
over 50 years of history of creating good
health—the number one natural
nutrition company in the
country…
•all in convenient daily
