For two years, Arlene Clark’s mother, Barbara, watched her daughter slowly deteriorate. “Because of the open sores and inflammation in her bladder, diagnosed as interstitial cystitis,” says Barbara, “her body was just shutting down because she couldn’t eat. She looked anorexic and was losing her hair.”

Arlene tried many different nutritional supplements suggested by her mother, including fish oil, without any improvement in her condition.

That changed when Barbara learned about Fortifeye Fish Oil and Fortifeye Complete Plus through her husband, who heard Michael Lange, OD, CNS, a board-certified optometric physician and certified nutrition specialist, on the radio talking about nutrition.

Researched and developed by Dr. Lange, Fortifeye has combined the power of a very potent and pure Omega-3 fish oil with a carefully developed antioxidant combination.

“We started listening to him daily, on his show “Ask the Dr,” and thought, Wow, this man really knows nutrition.” When they met with Dr. Lange, Barbara and her husband learned that not all fish oil and vitamin supplements are created equal. “He explained that if you break up a fish oil capsule, put the oil in a Styrofoam cup, and the oil eats the cup, you know it has ethanol in it.”  In fact, he explained further, many vitamin supplements you purchase over the counter could be toxic.

“I actually had to convince Arlene to try Dr. Lange’s super omega fish oil supplements and antioxidants,” says Barbara, “but it was just a matter of taking the right supplements and she was a different person.”

Nutrition crucial to eye care

“An eye exam may save your life,” says Dr. Lange. “We can tell a lot about a person’s health in an eye exam and the key is early detection.”

Dr. Lange is one of four optometric physicians in the country certified by the American College of Nutrition.

Proper nutrition is an integral part of the conversations between Dr. Lange and his patients. “That’s why I started the Fortifeye Vitamin Company,” he explains. The Fortifeye supplements are a science-based line of Nutraceuticals that have been developed over years of testing.

Dr. Lange reflects, “We’ve reformulated many times based on the research. For example, we’ve taken out beta-carotene from our vitamins. From the research, we know that lutein is good for the eye, but beta-carotene blocks the absorption of lutein.

“A majority of the public has a Vitamin D3 deficiency. We were the first vitamin company to take all Vitamin A retinol out of our vitamins. Just a little above the US RDA amount of Vitamin A retinol will block the absorption of Vitamin D3 and thus create a negative snowball effect on our visual health as well as overall health.”

Excellent results

After taking just a few of the Fortifeye Fish Oil capsules and Fortifeye Complete Plus, Arlene noticed an improvement in the way she felt. Barbara recalls, “It was amazing, the immediate relief she felt. It’s the strongest and purest fish oil you can purchase. It takes inflammation out of the body, and that was the secret; that’s what was causing her debilitating pain.” 

Dr. Lange explains, “Fortifeye has combined the power of a very potent and pure Omega-3 fish oil with a carefully developed antioxidant combination.”

Barbara says Arlene experienced steady improvement in her health once she started taking the Fortifeye Fish Oil supplements and Fortifeye Complete Plus. “I would say it took probably six months of taking the triglyceride-based fish oil before she was back to her old self. Her hair started growing in and you could see her skin get a glow back to it.”

Arlene had a follow-up exam with her urologist recently. Barbara recounts, “He told her whatever she’s doing, to keep it up, that the lining of her bladder was smooth and that she’s in total remission.

“It’s just been a miracle. We are so thrilled to have met Dr. Lange. His Fortifeye Fish Oil vitamin supplements have restored our daughter’s health.”

Dr. Lange states, “You can never underestimate the power of proper nutrition. I have seen many miraculous recoveries in ocular health as well as general health in patients that will follow the appropriate diet, take the correct regiment of supplements, and adhere to specific life-style modifications.”
