Reduce your risk for macular degeneration

The most important foods for preventing macular degeneration are ones that are rich in zinc, beta carotene, vitamin C, vitamin E, lutein and zeaxanthin and omega-3 fats.
Beta carotene-rich foods: carrots, sweet potatoes, kale, cantaloupe, apricots and cherries.
Vitamin C-rich foods: bell peppers, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, oranges, strawberries and kiwis.
Vitamin E-rich foods: wheat germ, almonds, sunflower seeds, flaxseeds, peanut butter and avocados.
Zinc-rich foods: oysters, turkey, pumpkin seeds and chick peas.
Lutein-Zeaxanthin-rich foods: Occur together in spinach, Swiss chard, watercress, corn and persimmons. (Persimmons are eaten fresh or dried, raw or cooked. When eaten fresh the peel is usually cut/peeled off and the fruit is often cut into quarters or eaten whole like an apple. The flesh ranges from firm to mushy and the texture is unique. The flesh is very sweet.)

Omega-3 fats: wild salmon, sardines, Atlantic mackerel and omega-3-fortified eggs.
