• Collagen and hyaluronic acid
  The vitreous body is made up of water (about 99%) and is rich in hyaluronic acid, produced by cells which are called hyalocytes. Collagen and hyaluronic acid constitute the organic fraction of the vitreous body, which has a structural function. The structure of the vitreous gel, also due to oxidative stress, age and/or particular conditions, can undergo some alterations, with a consequent loss of part of transparency and the formation of vitreous opacities. It is, therefore, very important to preserve the integrity of the relations between the collagen and hyaluronic acid molecules.
• Turmeric
  Curcuma Longa extract, thanks to its antioxidant properties, it is useful for the cells’ protection from oxidative stress. Cureit® is a formulation of Curcuma Longa extract which, in the studies carried out, has shown a significantly higher absorption than standard turmeric formulations.
• N-acetylcysteine
  N-acetylcysteine (NAC) is a N-acetylated derivative of the amino acid cysteine.
  Experimental studies have shown that NAC can help to counteract the process of alteration of vitreous collagen.
• Carnitine
  Carnitine is a conveyor of long-chain fatty acids to the mitochondria to produce ATP which is crucial in the body’s various biosynthetic reactions.
• Vitamin C
  Vitamin C protects cells from oxidative stress and contributes to the physiological formation of collagen for normal blood vessel function.
• Minerals
  Zinc intervenes in the process of cell division and contributes to protect cells against oxidative stress and to maintain normal eyesight. Magnesium is a mineral that contributes to maintain electrolyte balance and normal energy metabolism.
