The highlight of life starts with food choices - has your food list boosted your eyes?
Time： Nov 04,2024
There are many types of foods that are beneficial to the eyes, mainly including protein foods, vitamin A foods, vitamin C foods, and calcium foods.
1. Protein foods: such as lean meat, poultry, animal organs, fish and shrimp, dairy, eggs, beans, etc. These foods are rich in protein and are the main components of cells, which is very important for tissue repair and renewal. Long term lack of protein can lead to decreased eye function and affect vision.
2. Vitamin A foods: Lack of vitamin A can lead to a decrease in the ability of the eyes to adapt to dark environments, and in severe cases, even develop nocturia. Vitamin A can also prevent and treat dry eye disease. Adequate intake of vitamin A should be made daily, with the best sources being various animal livers, cod liver oil, dairy and eggs, as well as foods rich in carotenoids such as carrots, amaranth, spinach, chives, green peppers, sweet potatoes, and fruits such as oranges, apricots, persimmons, etc.
3. Vitamin C food: Vitamin C is one of the components that make up the intraocular lens, and a lack of vitamin C can easily lead to cataracts with cloudy lenses. Attention should be paid to consuming foods rich in vitamin C in daily diet, such as various fresh vegetables and fruits, among which green peppers, cucumbers, cauliflower, bok choy, fresh dates, pears, oranges, etc. have the highest content.
4. Calcium rich foods: Calcium has the effect of relieving eye tension, and foods such as beans, green leafy vegetables, and shrimp are rich in calcium. Cooking methods can also increase calcium content, such as cooking pork rib soup, sweet and sour pork ribs, etc.
The above foods are beneficial for the eyes, but attention should also be paid to a balanced and diverse diet, avoiding picky eating or overeating. At the same time, for people with eye diseases, it is best to consult a doctor or nutritionist for advice and develop a reasonable diet plan.
