Eye Nutrition Fact: Selenium and Glutathione Helps To Prevent Cataracts
Selenium is a mineral involved in the body’s production of glutathione peroxide, another protective enzyme found in the eye. This enzyme is an antioxidant, and is important in DNA and protein synthesis. It affects retinal vessel proliferation, retinal vessels and tissue elasticity. A lack of it can increase the severity of a cataract and cause hemolytic problems. Additionally, glutathione, a naturally occurring compound in the lens of the eye, is an important enzyme that helps prevent the formation of cataracts.
