Doctors only?!


Question: what foods most improve eye vision?


Answers: what foods most improve eye vision?

I'm sure you've heard about the imprtance of Vitamin A. But understand that unless you are severely malnourished, a normal healthy diet supplies all the Vitamin A you need. There really is no food that will "improve" your vision. Studies have demonstrated, though, the importance of a diet high in antioxidants for patients with macular degeneration. Several nutritional supplements are available for this purpose. Other than that, I would just recommend a well balanced diet with the use of a daily vitamin supplement if you would like. I have recently seen some "new" "organic" "natural" supplements called Juice Plus and (I think this is right) Mona Vie (or something like that). They have all these claims about how these are so much better than vitamins. They are dramatically more expensive than vitamins and I am not convinced that the cells of your body can tell the difference on a molecular level between "natural organic" vitamins and your standard vitamins. So don't waste your money on these.

The NIH recently completed a very large well-designed clinical study (AREDS) on antioxidants and eye-health. You might find this interesting:

As for the overpriced multilevel-marketed supplements -- avoid them. They simply aren't worth the exorbitant prices and some, like Juice Plus, are an outright scam (the bottle label for JP doesn't even list the amounts of ingredients so you have no idea what you are really taking). Also, a small corrrection to the comment posted above -- there are no organic ingredients in Juice Plus
