American Ginseng (Panax quinquefolium) is thought to be particularly good for the adrenal glands and is often recommended as part of a treatment for the immune system, improved energy and balanced blood sugar. American ginseng is gentler that the Asian varieties: it has more of a yin function.

Bilberry (Vaccinium myrtillus) appears to play a significant role in the prevention of cataracts as part of a healthy daily regime. In one study, a combination of bilberry and vitamin E stopped cataract formation in 97 percent of the patients – without side effects. Bilberry may also strengthen the collagen that supports eye structure. An antioxidant, it may help to protect the lens from oxidation.

Gingko (Ginkgo Biloba) may help to increase visual acuity in people with macular degeneration. Ginkgo increases blood circulation to the head, which includes the brain and the eyes, so it can speed healing of all of the tissues associated with vision.
