Ginkgo and Nicotinamide for Glaucoma Treatment

How do two common supplements (Ginkgo and Nicotinamide) stack up against glaucoma, the leading cause of irreversible vision loss in the world?
I previously covered ginkgo for cognitive function in Ginkgo Biloba as a Brain Health Supplement for Dementia (nutritionfacts.org/video/gink....
I’ve got some older videos on glaucoma: Greens vs. Glaucoma (nutritionfacts.org/video/gree...) and Dietary Treatment of Glaucoma (nutritionfacts.org/video/diet....

Hi Dr Greger! This post is off-topic, but your website recommends putting a comment under any of your videos if I have a question, so here it is. 😊
I just learned that my favourite burger has modified cellulose as one of the ingredients. It got me thinking about the fact that I've seen this ingredient many times and not thought much about it, so I looked it up and found that it's made of cellulose from trees or *cotton*. The heavy pesticide use associated with cotton farming makes me wonder about the pesticide levels found in modified cellulose, but I couldn't find anything about that online. Do you know anything about it?

So ordinary vitamin B3 doesn’t help glaucoma?

[@sandrineogerkillians2926]

How promising 😊

[@josephcullen2512]

Forskholin is something else that can probably help

[@risenshine2783]

Hi i heard it is nicotinamide that they are using in research studies, its not the same as niacin

[@concernedcitizen9101]

I'll tell you the real reason why so many people are being diagnosed with glaucoma but you have to close your eyes.
