Which diet is good for our eyes?

Vitamins, trace elements, fatty acids – our diet has a major influence on our general health and well-being. Consequently, we can also support our eyes and the quality of the tear film with vitamins and other healthy nutrients.

Tips Superfood for the eyes

Reliable visual acuity and an intact tear film should not be taken for granted. That is why our eyes need important nutrients, with which we should supply the body daily in our diet. Vitamins A, B2, B6, B12, C and E keep the eyes functional and protect them from drying out. The trace element zinc plays an important role in the visual process. Omega-3 fatty acids are also essential for the production of the lipid layer of the tear film. So what should be a must on the menu? Fresh fruit and vegetables such as apricot, avocado, carrots, broccoli and tomatoes, whole-grain products, legumes, dairy products, eggs, offal, fish such as salmon and mackerel, nuts, and vegetable oils such as linseed oil and walnut oil. A balanced and varied diet, rich in vitamins, gives the eyes the nutrients that are particularly necessary for eye health.
