The Spoon-a-Day Remedy That Made My Dad Read Without Glasses

One evening, I walked into the kitchen and caught my dad doing something that stopped me in my tracks. He was reading the tiny print on the back of a bottleโ€”without glasses. For years, heโ€™d needed them even for larger text.

I laughed and asked, โ€œHow are you even doing that?โ€ He just grinned and pointed to a small jar on the counter. โ€œOne spoon a day,โ€ he said.

Of course, I had to try it myself. After just a week, I noticed something strangeโ€”street signs looked sharper, even at night. My eyes felt less tired after long hours on the computer, and I didnโ€™t have to squint as much. Thatโ€™s when I knew my dadโ€™s little secret was worth sharing.
