Eye and Body Complete, 180 Capsules

I take this vitamin/supplement due to the fact that I have a problem with my right macula. I've been taking them for two years.They have all the vitamins recommended by doctors for eye health, plus an added bonus of being a complete multivitamin so you do not need to worry about taking any other vitamins, except maybe a fish oil capsule. Macula Complete also contains many natural ingredients such as green tea extract, grape seed extract, Co-enzyme Q10 and more. I highly recommend these vitamins to anyone concerned with eye health, and overall general health.UPDATE JULY 2016 - I have to revise my review of Biosyntrix Eye and Body Complete. The company, Biosyntrix, has run out of them and so have every one of it's distributors including Amazon. Yet they are still advertising it on the Biosyntrix website! After I placed my order with my credit card, a couple weeks later I got a phone call from their company stating that "the product is not available for a "few more weeks" due to the fact that the manufacturer is unable to obtain one of the ingredients!!! Yet at their website today, there is no mention of it's unavailability. Many people with retinal problems, either Macula Degeneration or other, depend on this formula to aid in the health of their eyes! I find this reprehensible and that it should be stated on the website.

UPDATE (10/19/2015): In my original review (see below), I gave only one star because when BioSyntrx changed the name from "Macula Complete" to "Eye and Body Complete", they also changed the formula, switching to folic acid, which is controversial, because folic acid may be linked to an increased incidence of some types of cancer. It really bothered me that they would do this, while touting it as a "new and improved" version.However, I see now from the BioSyntrx website that they have changed it again, but this time for the better, from folic acid to folate (as 5-MTHF glucosamine salt). (Note that on the Amazon website, if you look at the ingredient list, it does still say "folic acid", as of 10/19/2015. If you order from them, make sure you're getting the newest formulation.)I'm not a doctor or a medical professional but I'm glad they made this change, and I feel much better about starting to take this multivitamin again. It's so hard for the average person, like myself, to know what supplements are safe, in a world where even the "experts" can never seem to agree.ORIGINAL REVIEWThis product used to be known as "Macula Complete", which I took on a regular basis for three years. I stopped a few months back because I developed some neurological symptoms and also extreme light sensitivity. I went for various tests, including blood work, and my B6 level was a full eight times the normal upper limit. I did some reading on "B6 toxicity", and I really believe that this was the cause of my symptoms. This is NOT, however, the reason for my rating. This is just a caution to you that when taking a high potency formula such as this, it is important to monitor your blood levels for those vitamins that can be potentially toxic at high concentrations in the body.The reason for the low rating is that at the same time BioSyntrx changed the name from "Macula Complete" to "Eye and Body Complete", they also tweaked the formulation. One of the changes was to switch to synthetic folic acid from food-based folate (also known as 5-Methyltetrahydrofolate or 5-MTHF). There's much information online from various sources, including government sites, about a possible link between synthetic folic acid and an increased incidence of various types of cancer, including cancers of the lung and prostate. To my knowledge, no such link has ever been suggested for food-based folate. On the contrary, food-based folate is thought to have a preventative, anti-cancer effect.So why would BioSyntrx switch from "generally accepted to be safe" food-based folate to "possibly harmful" synthetic folic acid? If there is a doubt about the safety of synthetic folic acid, wouldn't it have been more responsible of BioSyntrx to stick with food-based folate? Around three months ago, I expressed my concerns to BioSyntrx via their website, but have received no response. Sadly, I've come to realize that perhaps the only reason for making this change was to save BioSyntrx a few pennies per bottle in manufacturing costs. If not, I wish they would at least explain it to us.

Wish the cost wouldn't be so high. Two dollars cheaper than buying it at the Dr.'s Office plus you don't have to drive and use gas to purchase it

My Eye Doctor recommended that I start taking these pills. They have everything in them so I don't need my vitamins any more. However, they are not easy to find in any of my local stores. The only place to get them other than my Doctor's office is over the internet.

I have Been taking the vitamins for several weeks. During this time i have have had an upset stomach, nauseous and a salty taste in my mouth and on the tongue. I finally found out it was the vitamins causing this discomfort by trial and error. I have been taking these vitamins for about three years and haven't had this problem before. I have a few left in the first bottle and have not opened the second one. Have you had any complaints with these symptoms? . Thank you.Shirley Shefstad

The price is reasonable compared to other sites, and this combination seems to be helping my eyesight a little, which is good, because it probably took years for them to deteriorate.

Out of date expiration with a sticker over the top of the outdated expiration!!!

meh.
