Nitric Oxide Explained: Vascular Health, Exercise Performance, and N1o1 with Dr. Nathan Bryan, international Leader in Molecular Medicine, the first to describe nitrite and nitrate as indispensable nutrients required for optimal cardiovascular health. He details NO as a ubiquitous messenger affecting blood flow, erectile function, cognition, exercise performance, endothelial dysfunction, and aging-related declines in NO production. Bryan explains why PDE5 inhibitors like Viagra prolong cyclic GMP signaling but don't fix NO deficiency, and why beet products often fail due to variable nitrate content and inadequate dosing. He outlines his NO lozenge approach that generates NO gas from sodium nitrite and magnesium ascorbate, plus a fermented beet powder drink (NOBeets), and emphasizes the role of oral bacteria (and harms of antiseptic mouthwash/fluoride) in nitrate conversion. They review published endpoints, including flow-mediated dilation, blood pressure effects, inflammation markers, triglycerides, stem cells, plaque regression, applications to Alzheimer's, glaucoma/microvascular disease, safety/dosing considerations, risks of arginine supplementation, and a dual-chamber topical NO serum developed from wound-healing experience.

Globally, 23 percent of the world’s population had myopia in 2000. By 2020, that rate had risen to 34 percent. Some experts estimate that it could reach 50 percent by 2050. Rates among children and adolescents are even higher in some places, reaching 70 percent among East Asians and an alarming 86 percent among Singaporean Chinese youth 15 and under (British Journal of Ophthalmology, July 2016). Why are so many people, including young people, myopic? Are there implications beyond a need for corrective lenses (glasses or contacts)? Can we reverse this trend by limiting screen time or encouraging more time outdoors? Are there treatments that can help children and adolescents improve their vision? Which Vision Specialist Should You See? Eyes are complicated, and caring for vision problems has become increasingly specialized and technically sophisticated. As a result, ophthalmologists (eye doctors) now often treat just one part of the eye, such as the retina or the cornea. Some surgeons specialize in removing cataracts. Others, like Dr. Sharon Fekrat, are expert in retinal surgery. There are also pediatric ophthalmologists who treat children. In addition, some people need to consult a neuro-ophthalmologist or someone who specializes in inherited retinal degenerations, uveitis or ocular oncology. How can you determine which type of eye doctor you should see to address your particular problem most effectively? What Is in a Complete Eye Examination? Dr. Fekrat will describe the elements of a complete eye examination. Why is each one included? What further steps are needed if trouble is detected? This will give you an idea of how vision problems are assessed and where to turn for treatment. Managing Dry Eyes One of the most common complaints is dry eyes. This condition is uncomfortable as well as common, affecting up to half of adults in the US. What are the causes? Are there treatments? People often use eye drops to alleviate the discomfort. Which ones work best? What can a person do if they have severe dry eye problems and are referred to a dry eye specialist with an appointment months in advance? Is it dangerous to postpone dry eye care? What to Do About Blepharitis When the problem is more the eyelid than the eye itself, doctors call it blepharitis. One typical symptom is crust on the lids, which may feel itchy or scratchy. Some people find that applying warm compresses morning and evening is helpful. Others need medication. You may have seen ads for Xdemvy, which is aimed at reducing the population of Demodex mites living in the follicles of the eyelashes. Mites are not the only problem, however. Sometimes bacterial infections are the underlying cause of blepharitis. Rosacea and seborrheic dermatitis that affect skin elsewhere on the face may also show up with the same symptoms. Topical ivermectin cream has been used off-label on the eyelid margins and may help reduce Demodex mites, but it is not an FDA-approved eye treatment and should only be used under an eye clinician's direction because it is not intended for instillation into the eye. How Will the Doctor Diagnose Glaucoma? Glaucoma is generally understood as a condition in which pressure inside the eye rises and damages the optic nerve. This disease can lead to vision loss. That's why intraocular pressure measurement should always be part of the eye exam. But this simple diagnostic technique alone may be incomplete. We'll ask Dr. Fekrat about additional approaches that might pick up normal-pressure glaucoma. How is it treated? Age-Related Macular Degeneration Deserves Treatment Another of the vision problems that can cause serious impairment is age-related macular degeneration. In this disorder, the central part of the retina, the macula, loses its ability to focus. Patients may notice that the central part of the vision is blurry, and it may be harder to see under low light conditions. Ophthalmologists now have a range of medications to inject to slow the progression of macular degeneration. Dr. Fekrat can describe the difference between “dry” and “wet” macular degeneration and the drugs used to treat them. What Other Vision Problems Are Troubling You?

Integrative ophthalmologist Dr. Rudrani Banik previews Eye Summit 2026, a free online event May 11–15 featuring four daily expert sessions on dry eye and ocular surface disease, cataract surgery advances (including robotic and AI-assisted planning), gut health links to eye disease, and mind-body approaches for migraine, concussion, and visual snow, with VIP options for recordings and live panels. They discuss photobiomodulation (red/infrared/yellow light) as an FDA-approved treatment for age-related macular degeneration with clinical trials showing safety and potential vision improvement, plus research on low-level red light for pediatric myopia. Banik emphasizes annual dilated eye exams after 40 to detect glaucoma and systemic disease. The episode covers dry eye nutrition (dietary omega-3s; supplements including GLA and omega-7; lutein/zeaxanthin with vitamin D), preservative concerns (BAK), GLP-1 drug associations with NAION, gene therapy delivery via viral vectors, and macular degeneration prevention with lutein/zeaxanthin-rich foods like kale, colored peppers, and egg yolks.

But, daily practice often still defaults to drop-heavy regimens that can erode the very ocular surface on which long-term success depends. The chronic use of preserved topical medications can compromise the cornea and conjunctiva, perpetuating ocular surface disease (OSD) and ocular surface inflammation (OSI). These conditions not only degrade comfort and quality of life but also undermine adherence, accelerate treatment failure, and reduce the success rates of both medical and surgical interventions. Recent expert consensus underscores that every glaucoma patient should be screened for OSD/OSI, yet implementation remains inconsistent in daily practice. Contemporary perspectives and data support a shift toward ocular surface-sparing strategies, including preservative-free options, earlier laser strategies, and newer tear-restorative, anti-inflammatory, and neuromodulatory therapeutic options when OSD does occur.=
Glaucoma is a leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide, and often develops without pain or early warning signs. So what is it, and how is it detected before vision is lost? We spoke with Sandra F. Sieminski, MD, Interim Chair and Director of Glaucoma Services at the University at Buffalo, about how glaucoma works, the latest advances in treatment, and why early detection is critical. We also explore the emotional impact of a diagnosis, practical tools for coping, and how staying engaged in your care – including regular eye exams – can help protect your vision over time.

Natural Eye Care with Dr. Marc Grossman, Holistic Optometrist
Your eyes are not separate from your brain. Indeed, they are part of the same system. That is why we take nutrition seriously when we talk about protecting vision as you age, especially if you are worried about macular degeneration, glaucoma, cataracts, dry eye, or the slow creep of cognitive decline.We dig into the MIND diet, a research-backed blend of the Mediterranean diet and the DASH diet for blood pressure, and explain why it is so compelling for both brain health and eye health. I break down what the science is really saying, including long-term data that tracks older adults over years and findings that link higher MIND diet adherence with dramatically lower Alzheimer's risk. We also talk honestly about supplements: they can help, but diet and lifestyle do more heavy lifting when your goal is healthy circulation, lower inflammation, and stronger protection against oxidative stress.You will leave with a clear “what to eat” list you can actually use: whole grains, vegetables with an emphasis on leafy greens, nuts like walnuts, fiber-rich beans, antioxidant berries, olive oil, plus fish and poultry if you include them. We also cover what to limit, including pastries and sweets, fried foods, margarine with trans fats, and excessive red meat and cheese. To round it out, we pair the food plan with practical movement, including a simple aerobic routine and a short workout concept aimed at boosting nitric oxide for better blood flow.If you care about keeping your mind and your sight, subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave a review so more people can find these natural, complementary strategies.

You'll also learn about practical resources to help families take proactive steps together.
Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend! I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks… Sarah: Hi Dr. Cabral. Thank you for all you do! Every time I get a cold or virus I break out in full body hives and it takes my body weeks to reset. I've tried your 21DD but seem to be really sensitive to herbal supplements. (Lots of reactions) Please help! Mohamed: Hey Dr.Cabral, 2 part question. Firstly, how are you? Where are you in terms of your overall well-being. I know you get a lot of baggage trying to help others! Just wanted to let you know You helped me a lot. Thought I'd ask, how is your well-being. My secondary question is about water pH, I have an under sink AquaTru without the alkaline remineralization. I sometimes add mineral drops.. wondering about optimal pH range for water. No Kangen yet haha it's expensive for a college student! Jenny: Hi Dr. Cabral - I know you have given recommendations in the past for the community to look into biological dentists, especially when it comes to removing past fillings, alternatives to root canals, etc. What about for regular 6 month check ups and cleanings? If we continue to go to a "regular" dentist for those visits, what is your recommendation about the dental x-rays they require? Thank you! Anonymous: Hi Dr. Cabral - I have a question about eye health. My father had Glaucoma which eventually led to full blindness. His eye doctor prescribed multiple eye drops to help maintain the eye pressure to help delay the progression, but he was on those for probably 20-30 years (Lumigan, Alphagan, Cosopt). My eye doctor is watching the pressure in my eyes and would like me to begin drops, as the pressure is higher than the "normal" range. I don't want to use drops, but also want to maintain eye health. I follow your protocols, including 2 Omega 3 soft gels and the Daily Vision and Eye Health. Do you have any other recommendations? Is Inflamma Soothe something I should take on an ongoing basis, as well? Thank you for all that you do. Dyan: Hello! Thank you so much for all you do! My boyfriend was diagnosed at 26 with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia, with him being so young there are great chances he will go into remission in five years or so and stop his medication. Doctors say CML is a genetic mutation but I know most cancers are from environmental factors. He's taking 50mg of a TKI inhibitor pill daily (considered chemo). I don't feel confident enough in my knowledge to have him stop his chemo pill just yet, but I know we would both love for him to stop it. What is your thought on Ivermectin for cancers patients? I have read it would respond great with his medication. He is super open to anything I've suggested whether it's diet changes or supplements. What supplements or action should we be sure to take?

Too busy to read the Lens? Listen to our weekly summary here! In this week's episode we discuss:Glaucoma patients who sleep with 2 pillows at night may have increased nocturnal IOP, worse IOP fluctuations, and lower ocular perfusion pressure.Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists and sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors, commonly used for weight loss and type 2 diabetes treatment, may be associated with increased risk of developing non-arteritic ischemic optic neuropathy.Radiomics analysis of optical coherence tomography imaging with machine learning demonstrates accuracy in identifying microscopic corneal texture features in the early stages of keratoconus with potential to serve as an image biomarker for disease detection.
GLAUCOMA MOMENTS !Season 8: Episode 7- GLAUCOMAMOMENTS Season 8 continues and the mission is simple but serious:VISION. FIXED. FOR '26.Because when vision slips, momentum stalls.When focus fractures, progress slows.And when we stop seeing clearly, we start settling quietly.This season isn't about hype it's about alignment.It's about recalibrating your sight, realigning with God's original intent, and refusing to move another step without clarity.We are locking in on what matters.Letting go of distractions disguised as opportunities.And demolishing every last blur that's been keeping us busy but not becoming.No more fuzzy faith.No more double vision decisions.No more walking with purpose but looking in the wrong direction.

Open-angle and closed-angle glaucoma are the two most common forms of glaucoma, but they differ in causes, risk factors, and treatment approaches. In this episode, ophthalmologist Dr. Andrew Smith explains the key differences and similarities between these types of glaucoma, who is most at risk, and how each is treated. Learn what these distinctions mean for diagnosis, care, and protecting your long-term vision.
Host Dr. Andrew Pouw welcomes glaucoma specialists Drs. Karam Alawa and Pujan Dave to discuss the sometimes bumpy transition from academia to private practice. The guests highlight clinical operations hurdles, such as navigating clunky EMR systems and prior authorizations, and managing finite staff and resources. Despite administrative hurdles, they emphasize the need for committed "chair time" to counsel patients and alleviate anxiety regarding disease progression.

In this 10-minute Master Class, we break down a practical, stepwise approach to glaucoma surgery, from knowing when it's time to intervene to managing expectations after MIGS.We'll cover how to think through surgical decision-making beyond drops, why SLT is often the right first step, and how to choose among MIGS options based on efficacy, safety, and preserving future options, not insurance-driven algorithms.You'll also get a clear framework for managing patients after minimally invasive glaucoma surgery, including:How to anticipate and manage early IOP spikesWhen and how to safely taper glaucoma medicationsSetting expectations around hyphema and visual recoveryWhy MIGS outcomes often aren't clear until 3 months post-opThe importance of post-operative gonioscopy for long-term successA concise, real-world Master Class designed to help you make confident surgical decisions and guide glaucoma patients through the post-op period with clarity.
In this episode, we hear from Pr Steve and his wife Toni, which we recorded live on stage at an event held in Bendigo, Victoria. Pr Steve talks about the debilitating, and I mean debilitating, anxiety he suffered and the impact this had on his work, relationship, physical health...so much so, that in 1 year, he spent half a wage on doctors' visits. Toni (& Steve) also tell us about Toni's sleep apnoea. They're incredible stories, such different illnesses, but the same outcome - a complete healing by God. If you haven't scrolled back through the previous episodes of this podcast, or checked out web page, you will find stories from people who have been healed from Mental Illness (depression, PTSD, anxiety) Cancer Arthritis Strokes Heart conditions Addiction Grief Protection from death in accidents Cataracts, Glaucoma. Broken relationship The list goes on and on. Just search Revival On The Air today on Spotify, podcast feed, YouTube, Google or Social Media. Please, please, subscribe like and comment.

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend! I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks… Gaby: Hello! Hope your having a great day. I searched your podcast for something on birth defects, but didn't find a lot. Can you tell me what causes birth defects (besides genetics) and how to prevent them (even with genetics). And if I have MTHFR, should I be concerned about using 1020 mcg of L-5MTHF? I heard that that amount can build up in the body even with this form. I'm using a prenatal with that amount and I'm hoping to become pregnant next year. Derrick: Hi there. My dad is on dialysis and needs to have a kidney transplant. I would love him to see a FM doctor but at 71, the approach feels completely foreign. Please can you help with any diet/supplement recommendations / foundations that could support him. The smallest tips that provide the biggest impact would be so appreciated. Dana: Hi Dr. Cabral, I listened to your review of the Neuropod. I was wondering if you measured the emf's? And what level were they? Thank you, Dana Mohamed: Good day Dr.Cabral, appreciate all the work you do and the entire Equilife team. Thanks for everything. My question is regarding IOP pressure. Laser eye surgery due to "drainage" was mentioned however it seems like it's more for "preventative purposes". However the alternative mentioned was a 20-30% risk of developing acute glaucoma. Her IOP is normal for now… no other alternatives were suggested. I feel like they are jumping to laser eye surgery (risk).. thoughts? Any other tips for eye health in general, nutrition supplements.. etc. I know you mentioned Lutin before. Thanks Sarah: I heard you mention that you add psyllium husk to your shake every day. I am starting to add psyllium husk to my diet, but I am wondering about timing. I read that you should take psyllium one hour before or two hours after any supplements as it can combine with certain nutrients and reduce absorption. If you add the psyllium to your shake with the DNS Powder, does that not reduce absorption of any of the nutrients? I just started taking it and have been careful to take it away from my supplements, but it would be much easier to just take with my shake or meal. I really appreciate your help!
