Nourish your eyes and brain

Generally speaking, eating plenty of foods high in antioxidants is a good overall strategy for improving eye health. Raw vegetables that are rich in antioxidants and various carotenoids (think bright yellow, orange, and red pigments) will help protect and support eyesight. This is due to higher concentrations of lutein and zeaxanthin, two antioxidants found in large amounts around the lens and the retina of the eye, that have been shown to support good eye health.

Specific foods that are high in carotenoids and good for your eyes include:

Carrots
Sweet potatoes
Pumpkin
Broccoli
Goji berries
Cantaloupe
Apricots
Garlic
Spinach
Tomatoes
Supplementally, one of the the most powerful antioxidants known to man that has shown to support excellent eye health is astaxanthin. This “King of Carotenoids” has exponentially more antioxidants than even the most popular antioxidant supplements (like CoQ10, resveratrol, and glutathione), and is a significant addition to nourishing the eyes.
