Eye Health

Scientific evidence suggests that optimal eye health is achieved through proper diet and a healthy lifestyle. Foods other than carrots play a large role in the health of these delicate organs. A diet rich in fruits and vegetables, herbs, spices, and fish supplies vitamins, carotenoids, minerals, and essential fatty acids that your eyes need. By contrast, a diet high in saturated fats and sugar lacks many of the antioxidants necessary for optimal eye health, which can lead to a buildup of free radicals. A poor diet and lifestyle also increase the risk of arterial plaque, which leads to restricted blood flow through the eye's blood vessels. Both free radicals and arterial plaque can lead to age-related eye disorders such as macular degeneration.
