Our eyes is one of the most used and expose part of our body, especially during work time, we spend long hours sitting in front of the computer. So its very important to know the essential nutrients needed for our eyes to keep it healthy. So here's the foods that's needed for our eyes that we must remember to include in our diet. I found this on online internet newspaper.

Avocado, broccoli, eggs, spinach, kale, tomato: all as source of lutein.

• Carrots: rich in vitamin A

• Garlic and sunflower seeds: provides selenium

• Tomatoes: source of lycopene

• Salmon: rich in omega-3 fatty acids

Do you eat any of this list of foods?

I heard that papayas and squash can also help in eyesight. I don't know if it is true but many parents here in the Philippines, teaches kids that they should eat those for better eyesight. lol


myLot reputation of 95/100. careguarden (1264)   ranked 336 out of 5,089 in eating  2 years ago

Yeah, I heard that too, foods that contains vitamin A is good for the eyes,papaya and squash is one of the excellent source of vitamin A so its absolutely true. Kids needs to be taught how to take care of their eyes since the modern technology makes them more prone to eye problem. Anyway thank you for sharing with us and enjoy your day!

I eat most of them as I am working in front of the computer 8 hours daily. I love to have eggs mixed with tomatoes for breakfast.

Cheers.

Well that's good, eggs with tomatoes can be real tasty and you can add it with carrots or banana for dessert. I always have fresh carrots before or after eating if I don't have an apple. Anyway thank you for sharing with us and enjoy your day!

I eat some of those food on the list like avocado, eggs, broccoli, tomato, carrots, spinach, garlic and salmon, but not as often. Actually, I rarely cook these days because I am often busy, so I just dine in or buy take out food in fast food restaurants. I know that it's unhealthy, not to mention impractical since they tend to be pricey at times. I guess i have to make some changes in my life then.


myLot reputation of 95/100. careguarden (1264)   ranked 336 out of 5,089 in eating  2 years ago

Well yeah, you are right, you should maintain to eat those foods on the list if you want to keep your eyes healthy and try to refrain from eating foods outside as it can't be good. Well anyway thank you for sharing with us and enjoy your day!

I have not been eating many of the food that you had enumerated in here.

Tomorrow, I will buy those foods that is good for the eyes and for the health. Most of the ones you've mentioned in here are fruits and vegetables so I would be going to the market tomorrow and buy some of the things good for my eyes. I learned something from you today. Thank you and good day.

Hi careguarden,

I really appreciate your discussion which is very imp. part of our body i.e.Eyes. One must take care of it and eat healthy. Well, among the listed food, I regularly eat eggs, brocolli, tomato, carrot, garlic. I like these food and my family too. Diet and upkeep are two important factors in taking care of your eyes. Eye exercises can restore your sight. Yes, carrot are rich in Vit. A and loaded with beta carotene are especially helpful in maintaining healthy eyes. Besides this when you are out in sun wear UV protective sunglasses. Get polarized lenses, not just darker lenses. The lenses that only make the world darker will just make your pupils dilate and don't do a thing to stop the UV rays. Prolonged exposure to UV rays can harm your eyesight, protection in youth can help prevent loss of eyesight in later years.

Thanks.


myLot reputation of 95/100. careguarden (1264)   ranked 336 out of 5,089 in eating  2 years ago

I am glad that you appreciate my discussion. The additional information you give is very helpful as well and thank you for it. Our eyes need lutein which can be found in foods that will help reduce the risk of age-related muscular degeneration of the eye and aside from that it also help protect against the detrimental effects of long-term computer display light exposure. Anyway thank you for sharing with us and enjoy your day!

Very true, foods rich in vitamin A are good for our eyes. My mom used to tell us to eat squash when she always include it in her favorite dish. Although I only eat eat on that and I can only eat tomatoes when it is fresh like in salad, the amount of daily intake for that is not sufficient.

So we do take food supplements like Zinc which is good not only for the eyes but the immune system, reproductive system and more. I also like to include garlic in my congee. About salmon and tuna, i really like to eat such because they are good also for the heart because of Omega-3.


myLot reputation of 95/100. careguarden (1264)   ranked 336 out of 5,089 in eating  2 years ago

Wow! You must be very healthy not just your eyes but also your entire body, good for you then. I really admire those people who eat healthy foods, because it can't be real easy since those unhealthy foods is hard to resist. Well keep on eating those kind of foods and live a longer life with good eye sight. Anyway thank you for sharing with us and enjoy your day!
