and links in the description below about anything that I mentioned including

things I may forget. so I want to make this video just to share a couple of eye

health tips that are proven in the literature that actually show benefits

for eye health and preventing future eye disease - tip number five coming in at

the bottom of the list is actually to watch your cholesterol levels and to

decrease your saturated fat intake it's not really big medical news that hearing

a high elevated level amount of cholesterol and saturated fat in the

diet isn't good for you but it's certainly not good for the eyes either

there are studies that suggest having elevated amounts of cholesterol and

eating high amounts of saturated fats actually contribute to the development

of age-related eye diseases such as macular degeneration also having higher

amounts of these levels in your bloodstream also contribute to other

diseases like diabetes and high blood pressure both of which actually

contribute to different retinal diseases within the eye. not only are other

diseases like diabetic retinopathy which can cause blindness hypertensive

retinopathy from high blood pressure that can hurt the eye as well as actual

cholesterol plaques that get released from this cholesterol getting stuck in

your arteries can actually get all the way up to the eye and cause a stroke

within the eye that we call a Hollenhorst plaque. that means decreasing the

amount of foods in your diet that have elevated amounts of bad fats such as

fast food or processed meats including high-fat dairy products such as milk

butter and cheese could not just be beneficial for your whole body and heart

health but also for the eyes this is actually compounded again by having a

decreased body mass index so getting out exercising watching you eat is

associated again with less eye health issues we're tip number five is to

decrease the bad fats in your diet tip for is to increase the good fats in your

diet namely omega-3 fatty acids in case you haven't heard omega-3 fatty acids

are considered the good fats that we find in some natural food sources such

as oily fish like salmon as well as from some vegetable sources including nuts

and seeds there's even an algae based supplement

that I've found that you can actually take as an alternative to taking fish

oil capsules as a supplement now there's a whole lot of omega-3 debates on how

omega-3 fish oils could help with heart health or joint health or even

neurological brain health there are a lot of documented studies that show

support that omega-3 fatty acids can help with dry eye symptoms as well as

preventing retinal disease what's really interesting is that research studies

have consistently shown that people who eat a diet with higher amounts of

omega-3s in them have decreased risk of developing age-related eye diseases such

as that macular degeneration as well as people with diabetes in fact a recent

study found that people who had omega-3s higher than their diet and diabetes not

only developed diabetic retinopathy less but people who did develop it it wasn't

as severe and people who needed treatment for it responded better to the

treatment that's some amazing support for having omega-3s in your diet and

even if you're not diabetic there is a lot of evidence supporting that omega-3s

are good for your eyes and your whole body as well tip number three is to eat

more foods with high levels of antioxidants in them that is namely

fruits and vegetables the high levels of powerful antioxidants that are found in

foods like fruits and vegetables often contain high amounts of vitamin C

vitamin E zinc zeaxanthin as well as a very

powerful eye nutrient called lutein these have all been found to be very

beneficial for the processes inside the eye to keep the eye healthy and prevent

eye disease mainly because we are constantly looking at everything around

our world that means the light is actually entering the eye and causing

the photoreceptors within the retina to turn over and constantly regenerate and

that requires a very high amount of metabolism and a faster working

metabolism causes more amounts of reactive oxygen species with

antioxidants basically negate in fact there's actually eye diseases like

macular degeneration where its standard of care for eye doctors like my

to prescribe vitamins because it helps those diseases so much so yes just as

you've probably heard throughout your entire life eat your fruits and veggies.
