Eyes are not just the window to the soul, but also to our brain. This amazing eye doctor (neurologist + opthamologist: two in one!) has the brains and suggestions to help you keep both your eyes and wits about you. I’m an integrative doc myself specializing in hormones and nutrition. I interviewed Dr. Rudrani Banik on the Dr. Berkson’s Best Health Radio… Dr. B shared pearl after pearl on how to keep seeing and thinking clearly. Whenever I have an eye question, I reach out to her. Now you can read it all on one eye-helpful book. Most ophthalmologists don’t know this stuff – but now you will!

“Brilliant! This is a must-read book to “look” and feel good! In a world where digital eyestrain is becoming alarmingly prevalent, Dr. Banik does a beautiful job showing readers how to take care of their eyes with a healthy diet.”

“A lot of people overlook the importance of eye health until they experience a condition such as cataracts, glaucoma, or macular degeneration. Whether you have an existing eye condition or are looking to prevent one from developing, Dr. Banik’s book ‘Beyond Carrots’ is a must-read. It’s great to see a book that discusses all of the different nutrients that are needed to have optimal eye health, and the specific foods you need to eat in order to get them.”

“Since interviewing Dr Rudrani for my Brave New Girl podcast, I have been so excited to read her new book ‘Beyond Carrots’. I know what she has to say works because since following her protocol I have managed to ‘switch off’ the migraines that I suffered with for eight years. It is also essential that I follow the strategies she outlines in her book, if I wish to maintain my eye-sight, because I have a strong history of macular degeneration in my family. The book is written clearly and is easy to follow with colourful photos that make her nourishing, nutritional advice inviting and inspiring. This is an eye-bible for life.”
