Eat Fruits for Eye Health
The following list of produce contains fruits for eye health – fruits that are good sources of at least one nutrient that benefits your eyes.
There are many others not listed here that will provide a small benefit to your Healthy Eyes, which is, of course, better than no benefit at all, and definitely better than a diet full of fat and sugar. Acerolas Acerolas, also known as the Barbados or West Indies cherries, are an excellent source of Vitamin C, and a fair source of beta-carotene. As a fruit juice, they are also an excellent source of Vitamin C, and a fair source of beta-carotene. Dried Apricots Dried apricots are a good source of beta-carotene because the drying process concentrates the nutrients.
Blueberries and Bilberries Blueberries and bilberries are an excellent source of anthocyanins, which help with night blindness, and have a positive effect on Cataracts and Macular Degeneration. Please note that bilberries may react with anticoagulant medications. Cantaloupe Cantaloupe is a good source of beta-carotene and Vitamin C. Guavas Guava is a good source of Vitamin C, and a fair source of beta-carotene. The pink-fleshed and red-fleshed varieties have more beta-carotene. Kiwis Kiwis are a good source of Vitamin C. Lemons Lemons are a good source of Vitamin C, and a fair source of lutein and zeaxanthin. Persimmons Persimmons are a good source of beta-carotene and Vitamin C. Choose ones that are soft all over or you will discover the puckering effect that persimmons have on the mucous membranes of the mouth.
