IN THIS EPISODE OF THE HUMAN UPGRADE™...

… Dave talks with Mark Bell about eyesight and ways to approach vision problems.

Mark is a world record-breaking powerlifter, the owner of Super Training Gym, The Strongest Gym in the West, and the inventor of the Sling Shot, a bench press accessory tool to help lifters add pounds to their bench press, help lift through injuries, and reinforce proper technique.

He’s built a life and business based on high performance. So when he began experiencing worsening vision over the past several years, he wanted to know how he could improve it.

“There's strength and there's flexibility,” Dave says. “And as you age, your eyes, the muscles lose strength. The tissues lose flexibility and this has to do with collagen types and cross linking of collagen. You're actually seeing yellowing of parts of the lens in your eye. And then, there's also a neurological thing where the brain may not actually be connecting.”

In this “Interventions with Dave” episode, you’ll learn about:

Effective supplements for eye health
How mitochondrial health affects vision
The importance of morning sunlight
Eye exercises to restore ability to focus based on the Bates Method and Meier Schneider’s "Yoga For Your Eyes"
Gabor patches to stress your brain's visual perception area
Eye training using an app, like GlassesOff.
Palming
IV stem cells
