Eye supplements for healthy vision

Healthy vision or good eyesight requires certain nutrients from a healthy diet or eye supplements. The Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommends that a healthy diet should emphasize fruits, vegetables, whole grains and fat-free or low-fat milk and milk products. It should also include lean meats, poultry, fish, beans, eggs and nuts. In fact, many Americans take a diet that is high in calorie but low in nutrient. A healthy diet should still low in saturated fats, trans fats, cholesterol, salt and added sugars. If your diet is not healthy enough, multivitamins and mineral supplements can offer enough nutrients that your eyes needs.
