How to loose weight quickly and safely by Dr Michael Lange 

Obesity is an epidemic in America and it is a root cause for many diseases.  If you are over weight it increases your risk of general  health problems and ocular disease. Macular degeneration , dry eye,  retinopathy  and glaucoma are all more prevalent in the over weight populations.  Our nation is consuming calorie dense nutrient deficient overly processed foods that are filled with harmful antibiotics, pesticides  and hormones.  To add fuel to the fire we are becoming more sedimentary and lazy.  Loosing weight is simple math, you  must burn more calories than u consume. For every 3500 calories less you intake or burn is equivalent to one pound of weight.  I have developed a system that is simple and works quite well. This system uses the highest quality nutrients available and is not based on any stimulants that will speed up your metabolism and potentially cause other health issues.  I believe if you keep it simple then everyone can follow this and get the results you need.

Our largest meal  traditionally in most Americans is supper and this should be our smallest meal.  A typical supper may consist or spaghetti and meat balls, 2 slices of french bread with butter,  salad with oil and vinegar, glass of sweet tea  and a red wine or cold beer  followed by  desert.  This meal will have between 2500-2700 calories depending on how much u eat. U can easily see that one meal could actually be much higher in calories than this depending on what you eat and how much.

My simple system consists of taking one scoop or Fortifeye Super Protein and one scoop of Fortifeye Blue Green Super food combined with two cups of spring water or well water and gently blending or shaking.  Drink this and take one Fortifeye Super Omega with the shake and one at bedtime . New science indicates  1.5mg- 2mg of omega 3 fish oil enhances weigh loss by increasing fat metabolism.   This combination will give you 20 grams of the highest bio-available whey protein concentrate from grass-fed New Zealand A2 cows with only 120 calories,  a combination of 12 FODMAP free fruits and vegetables  with only 25 calories and  all the omega 3 fatty acids u needs with 12 calories. This is a complete  meal replacement that  has only 157 calories , 3 carbohydrates, 1 gram of sugar and 3.9 grams of fat.  You are getting everything you need for a complete nutrient packed  meal in one drink. The Blue green superfood was made with fruits and vegetables that do not aggravate  Irritable Bowel Syndrome.  If you drink this every day as a replacement for your supper and you were eating the typical american supper you will loose between 4 and 5 pounds per week by following this one simple meal replacement and everything else remains the same in your life.  Once you start the program you will see it is easy to follow. New studies indicate a good whey protein will actually decrease hunger urges and curb your appetite making it easier to follow the plan. This whey protein concentrate will also make u feel better by stimulating the production of your master antioxidant called glutathione.  learn more about Fortifeye super Protein at  www.newzealandwheyproteinconcentrate.com

If you  add a little cardio exercise a half hour a day by biking, walking, swimming , in line skating, elliptical, tread mill or stationary bike you can easily burn and additional 200-400 calories daily. which could  equal another pound of weight loss per week. I also recommend a half hour of sun a day between noon and 2 pm without sun screen to get adequate Vitamin D. Several studies have confirmed a link between vitamin D deficiency and belly fat.  So by getting a little bit of a sun tan it may actually help with the weight loss and make you  look healthier at the same time.

I have 100s of patients that have lost significant amounts of weight safely  by following this simple meal replacement protocol and are healthier today because of this.  This was developed to work well with diabetics, celiac, IBS  and people following the paleo or low carb diet.

You have to have the will power to loose the weight for this to work and you can not eat anything after you have your drink for supper. Only drink water after the Fortifeye  combination and you will see the pounds come off of you very quickly.  Learn more about these 3 Fortifeye products discussed at www.fortifeye.com

I also recommend for Breakfast and lunch following a paleo meal plan.  I always recommend discussing your weight loss goals  with your physician  and  following up with your personal physician as needed.  Drink to your health!!

Glutathione is crucial for good ocular health as well as overall health.

7 Feb

Dr Michael Lange discusses the importance of maintaining Glutathione levels for good eye and overall health.

Glutathione is the “master antioxidant” found in every cell in our body.  Glutathione  levels have a direct impact on our overall health and eye health.  Glutathione is synthesized in the body from 3  amino acids : cysteine, glutamine and glycine.  The specific form of cysteine is a key limiting component of glutathione production since it is relatively rare in the correct form in the  typical American diet. When glutathione levels are deficient the body can not protect the cells against free radical damage and disease.  Rapid aging, compromised immune system and chronic illness is  a direct result of low levels of glutathione.  Research indicates that close to 100 diseases may be related to a deficiency in this Master Antioxidant .  New science also indicates that decreased levels of glutathione may increase the risk for dry eye, glaucoma, cataracts and macular degeneration.  Glutathione was one of the most common deficiencies found in spectracell intracellular blood analysis  done on patients that had both macular degeneration and dry eyes at The Lange Eye institute .

Glutathione levels drop as we age increasing our risk of compromised immune system and chronic illness.  These levels are highest when we are young and healthy and lowest when we are old and sickly.   Toxins in our environment, food and water we consume daily also negatively impact these levels. Glutathione is the bodies natural detoxifier that is crucial for promoting healthy DNA and mitochondrial functioning.  ATP and energy production  are directly influenced by glutathione levels.

Some symptoms of low  Glutathione levels are : lack of energy, tired, depression, joint pain, dry eyes, dry skin, poor sleep, dizzy spells, brain fog, weakness, skin rashes and frequently sick.

So you can see that maintaining optimal levels of Glutathione is essential for over all wellness and well-being of the entire body and eyes.  If these levels are low then we have a compromised immune system and chronic disease can flourish.  All health care providers should address this potential problem through properly educating the patient on life style modifications and dietary changes however realistically many will not follow these recommendations and fall back into their toxic lifestyles.

I have found one of the best ways to stimulate Glutathione levels is by consuming a non denatured (cold processed) whey protein concentrate from grass-fed cows 1-2 times a day.  This type of whey protein contains the Tri peptide of amino acids necessary for production of the master antioxidant.  The correct form of cysteine (not cystine)  along with glutamine and glycine is necessary for this conversion.  It is important to use a concentrate not an isolate, the whey concentrate has higher levels of immune building cofactors and is less processed than the isolate.  The cows need to be grass-fed all year round not partially fed grass and grains.  The cow’s milk must be free of pesticide, hormones and antibiotics .  I have also been impressed with whey protein concentrate derived from the milk of New Zealand A2 cows.  A2 cows are cows that are relatively difficult to find and have not gone through any genetic mutations over the last few 1000 years, each cows DNA is checked to make sure they are an A2 cow.  It is very difficult to find a non denatured whey protein concentrate from New Zealand grass-fed A2 cows for a reasonable price with 20 grams of protein.  This is why I decided to develop Fortifeye Super Protein.  Fortifeye Super protein is non gmo, non denatured, cold filtered, gluten-free, soy free, sugar-free, low carb, corn free and free of pesticide, hormones and antibiotics.  If you want kick-start your immune system and give the fuel  your body needs to promote wellness then consider Fortifeye Super Protein.  you can learn more about this bio active whey protein here  www.newzealandwheyproteinconcentrate.com

Fodmap and Paleo friendly organic blue green superfood developed by Fortifeye Vitamins

Blue green Superfood

 

NEW FODMAP FRIENDLY ORGANIC BLUE GREEN SUPERFOOD DEVELOPED BY DR MICHAEL LANGE AND FORTIFEYE VITAMINS

Fortifeye Organic Blue Green Superfood

Dr Michael Lange has been taking care of patients since March 1993 and  has seen how poor diet has negative impact on his patients.  He has been involved in nutritional research to support ocular and overall health.   More and more people are plagued with digestive problems and are not fueling their bodies with the beneficial nutrients to promote overall wellness. The typical person today is eating overly processed, calorie dense, nutrient deficient , fast food filled with pesticides, hormones and antibiotics.  Dr. Lange recommends an all organic gluten-free paleo type of diet to his patients, family, friends and radio listeners. However even on this particular type of diet many people will still notice significant bloating, tenderness in the abdomen, belching and gas after eating this type of diet. Many of these people have irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and specific fruits  and vegetables  can cause these symptoms as they go thru the digestive system.   Dr. Lange and Fortifeye Vitamins decided to research and develop a powdered super food using all organic and non gmo fruits  and vegetables that people could consume that were on a low carb diet, diabetics and people with IBS. People with IBS will react poorly to certain fruits and vegetables that actually cause fermentation and gas in their digestive system.  These type of foods are called FODMAP which stands for Fermentable oligosaccharides, di-saccharides, mono-saccharides and polyols.  These are very common foods in the typical American diet and new research indicates that restricting these foods may benefit irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)  and other functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGID).

Fortifeye Organic Blue Green Super food  is  an all organic, gluten-free, non gmo powdered combination of specific fruits and vegetables that are both Paleo and FODMAP friendly.  Everything including the flavor system was taken into consideration in the development of this powder that can be mixed with water or beverage of choice.  All nutrients are sourced from America and it will be available in chocolate and berry flavors.  Many greens drinks will use inexpensive binders, bulking agents and fillers such as flax, psyllium, acacia, oat bran etc  to make the customer think they are getting healthy fiber and  more product per scoop when in reality both soluble and insoluble fibers may block the absorption of valuable nutrients.   Fortifeye Vitamins uses none of these fiber fillers in their new Organic Blue Green Superfood.  Many of the greens drinks on the market will also use 30-40 different nutrients with only small window dressing amounts of each nutrient or will use a “proprietary blend” so u don’t  know what you are actually getting! When purchasing  a powdered super food you want to know the exact amount of each nutrient that is in the product.  Fortifeye  Organic Super Food shows you on the label exactly how much of each nutrient is in one scoop. This new Blue green super food is a combination of Spirulina, kale, spinach, barley grass juice, wheat grass juice, parsley, cucumbers, peppermint leaf, blue berries, strawberries, cranberries and cinnamon.  These particular fruits and vegetables were picked to be compliant with Paleo and FODMAP diets .  This combination also works well synergistically with potent anti oxidants profiles to promote overall wellness in the eyes and body.  When combined with Fortifeye Super Protein and Fortifeye Super omega, this superfood  can be used as a meal replacement.  Fortifeye Organic Blue Green Superfood will be available by March 2016. Fortifeye Vitamins released their new bio active whey protein concentrate from grass fed New Zealand A2  Cows in November 2015.  learn more about Fortifeye Super Protein here :  www.newzealandwheyproteinconcentrate.com

Why I developed a new grass fed whey protein concentrate.

2 Jan

Why I developed a new grass fed whey protein concentrate by Dr Michael Lange

After years of nutritional research with macular degeneration and dry eye patients I found a large percentage of these patients were deficient in glutathione. Most of these patients were lacking the specific amino acids necessary to stimulate glutathione production do to their poor diets. I also found the best way to stimulate glutathione was for these patients to consume a non denatured whey protein concentrate once or twice daily. I rapidly found out all whey protein is not created equal. I have developed my reputation of developing the highest quality supplements in the industry and not cutting any corners in the development of nutritional supplements. I have found after working with patients for nearly 25 years that the vast majority are not getting good quality protein during the day especially for breakfast. When I started to reccomend a whey protein supplement to my patients I found that a really good quality protein with a decent concentration was hard to find for an affordable price. I started to research different types of whey protein and found out most whey protein is overly processed and comes from cows that are fed genetically modified grains,filled with pesticides, antibiotics, synthetic sweeteners, binders and hormones. I also found that most cows are A1 cows that have gone thru a genetic mutation altering the beta casein protein in the milk causing many digestive issues and other potential health problems. After extensive research I wanted a whey protein that came from A2 cows that graze year round on pesticide free grass and are not given antibiotics or hormones of any type. I also elected to use a whey protein concentrate instead of a whey protein isolate. The whey concentrate is the least processed form of whey protein that has not been stripped of the good fats, immunoglobulins ,minerals and enzymes. Whey protein isolates are overly processed and stripped of the valuable anti aging immunoglobulins. I also wanted a non denatured whey protein concentrate to maintain the natural quality of the whey protein the way God intended it. Non Denatured whey protein has the highest biological value of any protein. I found with my patients one of the best ways to stimulate glutathione is by consuming a non denatured whey protein concentrate daily. When protein is heated or denatured it converts covalent bonded cysteine to cystine a much less bio-available form of the amino acid. Covalent bonded cysteine is the most important amino acid responsible for the production of glutathione. Glutathione is crucial at all ages for a strong immune system. Lastly I decided to use New Zealand Grass fed A2 cows as the source for Fortifeye Super Protein because these cows met all of the criteria I required for the perfect protein I can stand behind and trust. A2 cows milk have not gone through a genetic mutation that alters the protein causing the digestive issues and other potential health problems associated with A1 cows milk. I worked for some time on a natural organic flavor system combined with non gmo sunflower lecithin to make both the vanilla and chocolate flavors delicious and creamy. Fortifeye Super Protein since it is grass fed year round has a higher ratio of omega 3 to omega 6 than a grain fed cows milk. This higher omega 3 ratio is crucial when dealing with patients with dry eye. Also since this is a grass fed concentrate it is much higher in CLA (good fat) and Lactoferrin (muti-functional protein) both have been found to be lower in dry eye patients. Making a smoothie in the am for breakfast using Fortifeye Super Protein or another non denatured whey protein concentrate from grass fed New Zealand A2 cows is a great way to start the am. I also recommend drinking another smoothie within 30 minutes of working out to maximize the results of your workout. Many of my patients have improved dry eye symptoms , lost  fat  and gained muscle when they have started following some simple life style adjustments and added a daily smoothie using this type of protein. I developed Fortifeye Super Protein so doctors and consumers now have a whey protein concentrate they can trust. You can purchase Fortifeye Super protein online at www.fortifeye.com or thru any physician that carries Fortifeye Supplements.  learn more science behind Fortifeye Super Protein here:  www.newzealandwheyproteinconcentrate.com

Natural treatment of dry eyes by Dr Michael Lange

Dry Eye Vitamins

revised article by Dr. Michael Lange 12/6/15
The day I graduated from Optometry school in 1992 is the day I began looking for natural approaches to help my patients.  I have tried just about every combination of vitamins and minerals in an effort to  improve ocular and overall health.  I started the Fortifeye Vitamin company and became a certified nutrition specialist in my quest to find the nutritional answers I was looking for.  I have been involved and am currently involved in ongoing nutritional research aimed at helping patients.   Since I live and practice in Florida one of the biggest problems I encounter with my patients is dry eye syndrome. It seems that just about everyone in the Florida area has some form of dry eye.  Dry eye nutrition is an area I have been involved in for numerous years. I have developed and re developed many dry eye vitamins over the…

New Zealand Grass Fed Whey Protein Concentrate from A2 cows boost immune system.

27 Nov

stimulate your immune system with grass fed whey protein concentrate and just maybe help your dry eyes too.

Natural Dry Eye Treatment

Dr Michael Lange and Fortifeye Vitamins has developed a new grass fed whey protein concentrate from New Zealand A2 cows called Fortifeye Super Protein.  This protein will be available in the middle of December and will come in 2 flavors: chocolate and vanilla.  Dr. Lange used about 10% more organic flavoring along with organic sunflower lecithin to make both have a delicious creamy  taste.  These A2 cows have not gone thru any genetic mutations altering the casein protein the way A1 cows have. Very few grass fed whey proteins come from A2 cows.  These cows are free range and feed on pesticide free grass all year long. This whey protein concentrate will have a higher ratio of omega 3 to omega 6 than a grain fed  protein. The CLA  ( good fat) will also be higher in a grass fed whey protein concentrate over a grain fed  protein.   This whey protein…

Nutrition for Dry Eye

the latest in nutrition for dry eyes!!

Dry Eye Vitamins

Nutrition for Dry Eyes by Michael Lange OD, CNS

Nutrition for dry eye is a subject I discuss with my patients on a daily basis.  I have a very large dry eye patient population and have learned what works and what does not work over the last 25 years.  I have used the traditional approach using a combination of heating and massaging the lid margins to open the meibomian glands, using a good artificial tear with hyaluronic acid like oasis tears plus or blink preservative free and  cleaning the lids with a good lid hygiene foam like ocusoft or cliradex.  So for dry eye 3 things are still crucial:  cleaning, heating and lubricating.  I have also used all the prescription medications available for dry eye over the past 25 years.  Since I have become more in tune with the natural approach to dry eyes I find I prescribe medication very rarely now.

Fortifeye Super Protein

Fortifeye Super Protein

IMG_7082MA30667468-0001

Dr Michael Lange briefly describes all new Fortifeye Super Protein.

Fortifeye Super Protein is an all new Non Denatured whey protein concentrate from grass-fed New Zealand A2 cows.  These are cows that have never been genetically altered that feed year round on pesticide free grass pastures in New Zealand.  This protein is rBGH & rBST hormone free, antibiotic free,  non GMO, soy free, corn free, wheat free and  gluten-free.  A2  milk is produced from A2 cows which have the protein A2 beta casein which is differnt form the A!1 beta casein produced by A1 cows.  A2 beta casein is the original form of beta casein produced by cows 1000s of years ago.   A1 beta casein is believed to have occurred 1000s of years ago from  a series of genetic mutations.  A2  cows milk and beta casein is believed to be more nutritious than A1  and actually have some preventative aspects to the protein. This is a non denatured whey protein concentrate that means no excessive heat or acid has been used in the creation of this whey protein concentrate. Another name would be undenatured whey protein concentrate. Undenatured whey protein is the same thing as non denatured whey protein concentrate.  A whey protein concentrate is more natural and less processed than a whey protein isolate.  This protein has not been stripped of the immunoglobulins and healthy fats that are crucial for absorption of the protein and enhancing the immune system.  Fortifeye Super Protein contains the full range of immune building  and regenerative components like: CLA,  Lactoferrin, Immunoglobulins, peptides, growth factors and covalent bonded cysteine ( precursor of glutathione).  Fortifeye’s non denatured whey protein concentrate  has gone through the processes to preserve and maximize the biological activity and  bio availability of the whey protein.  This protein has two delicious creamy chocolate and vanilla flavors.  Only organic and natural flavorings have been used in this product.  Adding  a good non denatured or undenatured whey protein concentrate  from free range grass-fed A2 cows to your daily nutritional regiment is a step in the right direction of anti-aging.  Fortifeye Super Protein will be available mid to late November at www.fortifeye.com and thru many anti aging physicians offices.

Is the blue light u are being exposed to daily from your computer, tablet, smart phone, television and indoor lighting harming you?

2 Aug

Dr Michael Lange of Lange Eye Care and Associates and Fortifeye Vitamin discusses the potential harm blue light is causing and how a lens called  Blue Light Defense may  be the answer.  Blue Light protection is a hot new topic!

Studies are now proving that a specific wave length of light in the blue-violet  spectrum is harmful to our eyes and possibly our entire body.  This blue-violet light that is being produced and emitted by smart phones, computers, tablets, over head indoor lighting and television to mention a few.  All of us on a daily basis are exposed to extreme levels of this potentially harmful blue light.  Blue light nearest the range of 400-420 nm seems to have the most destructive effects on the retina in the eye.   These blue light rays not only may cause early aging in the eye with cataract formation at a younger age  and earlier signs of macular degeneration but new studies also indicate these blue light frequencies of light may have some negative effects on our general health. New studies indicate this evening light exposure especially  blue light exposure may interfere with our sleep patterns.   To be able to filter these harmful blue light rays by wearing a pair of glasses that has a lens that absorbs the harmful blue light was only a dream a few years ago.   Blocking and filtering the harmful blue light ( Blue Light Defense)  is now a reality. Blue light protection  is a hot topic in all of the continuing education seminars for eye care providers.  Many companies now have lenses that claim to block and filter the blue light. One must be very careful when shopping for blue light protective lenses.  First and foremost find out how much of the blue light and at what frequency in nanometers is actually being blocked. Many companies are selling only coatings that will have a minimal filtering effect  on the blue light and may block only small percents of the harmful blue light. Also u must make sure the lenses are cosmetically appealing to you. Some of these new generation Blue blocking lenses are yellow, yellow-brown, orange ,red or purple and may be cosmetically unappealing to you and actually may decrease the transmission of light into the eye .  Blue Light Defense lenses are one of the most exciting break thrus in the optical industry!  This is a lens that is almost clear and blocks over 99% of the wave lengths of blue light from 400-420nm. Theses lenses also block a good portion of the blue light all the way to 450 nm.  These blue light absorbing properties are actually throughout the lens in the monomer not a coating.  This lens comes in trivex material, 1.60 and 1.67 high index.  Dr Michael Lange says this is a true anti aging lens, “to be able to offer a lens to our patients that filters some of the most damaging rays of light and is almost totally clear is absolutely amazing!”    Dr Lange has been using this lens with his patients since November 2014 and states that patients comment all the time on how happy they are that purchased this particular lens. Many patients will state that their eye strain has been reduced significantly while working on the computer and many also state they are sleeping better.  Dr Lange was the first to use this new lens in the country but states many eye Doctors will be offering Blue Light Defense to their patients in the end of 2015.   Dr Lange recommends parents  purchase these lenses in no prescription for their children that don’t need a prescription that are on a digital app like smart phone or tablet throughout the day. He also says it is a no brainer to use this material  in all prescription eye wear. Why wouldnt u??  Here is a link  to purchase  non prescription Blue Light Defense  lenses and frame combo.  This price is only a short term  introductory price since the frame alone sells for this price and the lenses are basically free.  The internet is selling many  blue filtering lenses for a very discounted price however remember “you get what you pay for”.  Most of the blue filtering lenses are filtering a very small amount and virtually useless. Make sure you look for Blue Light Defense.    www.bluelightdefense.com
