What is GlaucoCetin Medical Food

Q: What is GlaucoCetin Medical Food

GlaucoCetin is the first regulated vision-specific Medical Food designed to support and protect the mitochondrial function of optic nerve cells in patients with glaucoma. GlaucoCetin combines a unique set of ingredients, specifically designed to stop or reverse the underlying cause of optic nerve loss, and ultimately vision loss, in glaucoma. During the glaucomatous disease process, the metabolism for the optic nerve cells start to fail because of dysfunctional mitochondria. Mitochondria is responsible for energy production in these cells. When mitochondria is unable to function, the nerve cells do not have enough energy to operate, and they eventually die, causing vision loss.

The GlaucoCetin formula has been under development for a decade and is based on years of research showing the importance of natural ingredients for protecting nerve cells. The precursor compound of GlaucoCetin (Glaucohealth™)* has been used successfully clinically since 2016.
