Results of these studies have shown some benefit in individuals at high risk for vision loss, and they are safe to use. There is, however, no evidence that they are beneficial in PXE. It is possible that these supplements would be helpful.

AECC - Association for Emissions Control by Catalyst
A catalyst helps substances react together but remains unchanged in the process. In an automobile catalytic converter, the catalyst helps the pollutants (unburned hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides) react with each other and with oxygen to form less harmful compounds (water, carbon dioxide and nitrogen). Modern catalytic converters do not "sap power" because they are designed as an integral part of the exhaust system.

Research has shown unprotected dirty toothbrush bristles carry mold, germs, decaying food, and harmful bacteria. In chemistry and biology, catalysis is the acceleration (increase in rate) of a chemical reaction by means of a substance, called a catalyst, that is itself not consumed by the overall reaction. This means catalysts reduce the amount of energy needed to start a chemical reaction (in this case, eradicating bacteria and microbes).
