I recently bought Nature Way Schizandra 580mg. I decided to document 100 days of taking this herbs.
The main purpose of the 100 day log is to reverse lifelong eye damage. Sun and liver damage; are likely the cause. The whites of my eyes are no longer white. I am hoping the claims made about this herb for eye and skin benefits can remedy this problem. That's the main goal of this journey.

As mentioned there are not many articles about the brighting of the eyes; just on improve vision and few mention through reviews and forum post about eye brighting.
I really not here to present information about Schizandra and solid proof. Hence the purpose of the Log.
Other relevant information about me.
What I am taking:

Log terms
- Effects will be noted daily.
- What I took that day, how much etc.
- The focus is one the eyes and skin. As they aren't many log journalizing Schizrandra in such a way.
- Short entries are expected not novels.
- Don't expect John Green to show up and proof read.
I'll add anything I think is relevant to this first post.
