Nutrition for Healthier Eyes

Eating properly can help to maintain excellent vision and
even improve weak vision. An article at newstarget, in fact,
outlines several different ways one can eat properly for
vision and claims that a healthy diet is the foundation for
excellent vision.

If this is true, it may point to why so
many Americans have failing vision, since our diets are
noticeably lacking in vitamins, minerals, whole foods and
superfoods.

The article, which does not advocate one certain diet for
everyone, points out many ways one can use nutrition to
improve their vision.

The basic message is to eat more fruits
and vegetables, such as dark leafy greens, colorful veggies
full of phytonutrients like beets, carrots and squash, and
fruits high in antioxidants, such as blackberries and
strawberries.

The article also advocates taking vitamin
supplements, drinking fresh vegetable juices and adding
superfoods, such as chlorella, spirulina, nutritional yeast
to one’s diet.

In addition to eating plenty of fruits and vegetables, they
also recommend reducing dietary sugars, which can diminish
nutrients in the body and play a role in cross-linking of
collagen fibers in the eye.

Other recommendations include getting enough essential fats,
using herbal eye washes and resting your eyes by taking off
your glasses.
