I wonder how important the daily Potassium RDA of 4, 700mg is to defer eye macular degeneration, since it is closely related to diabetes/kidneys and circulation? All cells of the body require that "sodium-potassium pump". Some people on other pharmaceuticals or even diabetics cannot consume the Potassium RDA. Seems contraindicative. 🤔

Heart felt thanks to Dr Andrew Huberman and Dr. Jeff Goldberg. I've been giving free Simple Yoga for Super Learning to children in schools. I'll give free classes on Yoga for Eyes to teachers in schools. This video has educated me immensely on the medical side making my sharing of knowledge to the public more scientific and enriched.
Warm regards.

It's not some 3rd world problem. A lot of available treatments and surgeries are suboptimal or poor solutions. Fx. Artificial lenses cant change focus. The treatment for glaucoma related to pressure is pretty bad - Current cutting edge treatment at best seems to slow it down, but likely at the cost of even more vision loss, and may just go back to same speed of degeneration later.
My mother has been fighting it most of her life. And pretty much every surgery or treatment makes vision worse, for the sake of hopefully slowing down the development of the damage, but some just dont.

I just suffered a stroke/small brain bleed due to vasoconstriction. Now left side peripheral vision a bit off. Only been a little over a week. Anyone have any experience with this?!

I thought Huberman was gonna demonstrate some kinda breathing exercise to improve your eyesight 😅

Are there new methods to replace the optic nerve in a , 14 year old?

[dasia]

Disappointing. I thought I'd be hearing something new, something to help heal.

No tools to improve vision in the video.
