Why You Need to Attend Convention
By Jan Bloom |
I attended my first convention in 1994. I felt I had practically wasted the previous year trying to figure out on my own how to make my business grow. So I was hungry to truly understand firsthand how this business really worked.
I’m not one to run from a challenge—and attending the convention had several. It was a challenge to leave my kids (ages 4 and 6), arrange for my work to be covered, and most of all, a challenge to step on to that airplane—I had an incredible fear of flying.
But, if I had not made that trip, my life would be very different. My husband would still be caught in his exhausting medical career, we would never have had the income to enjoy the lifestyle that we now enjoy, and, more importantly, I would not have become the independent woman I am today.
Attending the sessions and learning firsthand from the leaders, took me from Bronze Rank to Presidential Rank. I matched my husband’s six-figure medical practice income in just five years.
Every convention I attended since then enabled me to discover the strengths and skills I possessed.
This business brings out in you qualities that you did not even know you had!
Since that first convention, I have not missed one in 14 years! This is a HUGE reason everyone needs to be in Orlando—it will cost you more in the long run if you miss it.
Jan Bloom is a member of the Franchise Advisory Board as well as the Unicity Medical Advisory Board. She’s an accomplished speaker, trainer, and recognized for her successful leadership and business development skills.

What is Normal Vision Anyway? |
Our eyes function differently when we reach our 60s than they did when we were in our 30s. We simply don't see as well at certain distances. By the time we celebrate our 80th birthday, our eyesight will have almost certainly declined further. Such changes in vision are perfectly normal, offer few serious risks, and, in general, are easily corrected with eyeglasses or contact lenses.
But how do you know what constitutes a "normal" change in vision strength and what is more serious? To determine the answer, your doctor will want to know your specific symptoms. |
The Aging Eye--Normal Changes and Their Symptoms
Symptom: Difficulty reading newsprint or prescription bottles.
What's happening? The most likely culprit is presbyopia, which is the tightening of the muscles of the eye that allow us to focus at close distances. Familiar to almost everyone over 40, this condition occurs naturally and is easily corrected with bifocals or reading glasses. |
|
 |
|
You may also be experiencing reduced visual acuity. Normal visual acuity is 20/20 for a young person and 20/40 for an older person. In other words, an older person will normally be able to see at a 20-foot distance what a younger person sees at a 40-foot distance. Again, this is to be expected and is not a dramatic enough change to prevent you from functioning fairly normally. |
Symptom: Increased need for light; dimness makes it difficult to focus on close tasks like sewing or handcrafts.
What's happening? As we grow older, the once-clear lens of the eye grows progressively hazy and yellow, allowing for less light to pass through. An older person normally requires four times more light than a younger person--by age 80, it might be ten times. To compensate, natural sunlight works best, followed by natural full spectrum bulbs that imitate sunlight and are now available commercially.
Symptom: "Do these socks match? Are they both black or is one dark blue? I can't quite make out the white plates when they're resting on the white tablecloth."
What's happening? It's common for the aging eye to experience reduced contrast sensitivity, which makes it difficult to differentiate similar patterns and colors. The simple use of bolder contrasts can make your home safer and easier to navigate.
Other normal symptoms of the naturally aging eye: |
-
Difficulty adapting to changes in light and dark environments
-
Difficulty with glare
-
Reduced depth perception
-
Reduced ability to see colors
-
Eye dryness
-
Floaters (tiny specks, usually noticeable in bright sunlight)
|
Is It Serious? The Warning Signs
While we can all expect some decline in vision as we grow older, severe or persistent symptoms could indicate a serious degenerative condition that could lead to low vision, or even blindness.
Contact your eye care professional immediately if you experience: |
-
Sudden hazy or blurred vision
-
Recurrent pain in or around the eye
-
Double vision
-
Seeing flashes of light
-
Seeing halos around lights
-
Unusual, even painful, sensitivity to light or glare
-
Changes in the color of the iris
-
Sudden development of persistent floaters
|
At any age, it's important to have your eyes checked regularly. If symptoms or concerns arise, contact your eye care professional as soon as possible.
What Can You Do?
Good eyesight contributes greatly to your wellbeing and quality of life. If you don't take care of your eyes by giving them proper nourishment your eyes can be subject to many degenerative conditions. Without proper care you could even lose this precious gift.
Most people don’t even consider that our eyes have special nutrition needs. Many of the common ailments that come with age such as cataracts and macular degeneration can be greatly improved with proper care and nutrition.
But how do we obtain these nutrients and in the proper amounts? |

A Message From Unicity’s Chief Science Officer…
“VISUtein is unlike any other vision product on the market. The secret to its extraordinary efficacy is first of all the high dose of lutein. Lutein is part of the most sensitive spot on the retina, the yellow spot, and many declines in vision when aging are due to a reduced lutein concentration of that spot. While most products provide only a sprinkle, VISUtein features 18 mg per day, which is fulfilling the requirement of lutein supplementation by vision scientists.
“Another unique feature of VISUtein is the combination of N-acetyl cysteine (NAC), and zinc. Both are well-known antioxidants, but their combination in one product makes the retina protected from most free-radical attacks. Zinc is the most abundant mineral in the eye, and forms essential complexes with antioxidant enzymes. NAC is the precursor of the body’s own detox system: glutathione. Boosting up glutathione, through NAC supplementation is known to prevent or delay serious destructive processes in the retina, preserving vision.
“And think of this: VISUtein has been compared directly to the most recognized brand of vision products in the market by Dr. David Newsome, and VISUtein performed better on all three test scores, visual acuity, recovery from a flash, and contrast sensitivity. There is no product like it.”
Dr. Peter J. Verdegem, Ph.D., MBA |
