Vitamins
Published February 1st, 2007
Antioxidants can help our eyesight because they prevent the damaging effects of oxidation, particularly in the retina. Vitamins A, C, and E are the most effective antioxidants. In addition to the vitamins themselves, there are a number of associated natural extracts (called carotenoids and flavonoids) that are found to be rich in these vitamins, and which may be easier for the body to absorb. Finally, Vitamins A, C, and E are more effective when taken together with certain minerals (zinc and, selenium) and other vitamins (particularly the B complex of vitamins).
