Green vegetable are good for eyes health
Green vegetables contain lutein and zeaxanthin. Lutein and zeaxanthin alone are carotenoids found in the retina. Foods that contain both these nutrients have antioxidant properties that can reduce the risk of developing macular degeneration and cataracts. Antioxidants can protect the eyes from damage that can be caused by sunlight, cigarette smoke, and air pollution.
Lutein and zeaxanthin work by increasing the pigment density in the macula which absorbs the excess of blue and ultraviolet light and neutralizes free radicals. In this way, lutein and zeaxanthin in the diet can protect the eyes from damage.
The green vegetables that contain high levels of lutein and zeaxanthin are spinach, kale leaf, romaine lettuce, mustard greens, broccoli, and turnip greens. In addition to green vegetables, lutein and zeaxanthin can also be found in peas and avocados.
