The Science

Vision is an energy problem before it is anything else.

The retina runs on more energy per gram than almost any tissue in the body. Keep the fuel flowing and the cells keep working. That is the whole thesis behind Sight Guard.

The mechanism

How Sight Guard works.

  1. NAD⁺ declines with age

    The body loses much of the NAD⁺ it had in youth. Every cell feels it, and the retina, among the most energy-hungry tissues you own, feels it early.

  2. Mitochondria slow down

    NAD⁺ is the coenzyme that powers mitochondrial energy production. Less NAD⁺ means less ATP for the photoreceptors that turn light into sight.

  3. Sight Guard supplies the precursor

    A targeted NAD⁺ precursor formula gives retinal cells the raw material to keep producing energy, upstream of the decline rather than downstream of the damage.

The decline

NAD⁺ falls on a schedule. Your eyes keep the same workload.

The decline is gradual, predictable, and quiet. The demand on photoreceptors never drops to match it. That widening gap is where age-related visual change begins.

  • NAD⁺Declines with ageNAD⁺ levels fall as we get older across many tissues.
  • RetinaHigh energy tissueAmong the body's highest energy demand per gram. That is why NAD⁺ support matters for what you see.
  • NowWhen to startCollege, your 30s, and every decade after. Start whenever you want proactive support.
What this means for you

You cannot out-supplement antioxidants if cells have no energy to run on. Start upstream.
