Healthy Eyes Are Sexy Eyes

by Evgania Mehler

Did anyone ever tell you that you had “bedroom eyes”? That means you have incredibly sexy eyes. Now there is a way to keep them that way. Just imagine how you would feel if you were in your eighties and someone told you that you had sexy eyes. Take my word for it, it can happen.

Are you constantly on a diet? There are certainly enough of them out there to choose from. In fact, there’s one for every part of your body. Do they work? Maybe, maybe not, but there is a diet that works. It targets your whole body with an extra added benefit, your eyes. You probably didn’t know that your eyes need a healthy diet too. This diet will help you get and maintain a healthy body and healthy and sexy eyes.

For the most part, we take our eyes for granted. Try closing your eyes and walking around the house for a few minutes. If you didn’t break your toes or fall over something, you did great. But how would you like to have to do that all the time? That’s why we need to stop taking our eyes for granted and take care of them.

Mother knows best. She told us to eat our carrots so we could see in the dark. She knew what she was talking about. Carrots and other orange vegetables contain beta-carotene, which converts to Vitamin A in our bodies and enhances visual acuity. Our eyes are better able to adjust to light changes such as daylight to darkness. If you didn’t mind your mom, you better start if you want to see after dark.

Do you go to your favorite restaurant and order a big plate of spinach, kale or collard greens? Uh, probably not. Most people wouldn’t be caught dead eating that stuff. However, that stuff contains a powerful ally for your eyes. They contain lutein which can help prevent cataracts and macular degeneration.

If you can’t make yourself eat green leafy vegetables, then tomatoes, carrots, red peppers, and squash are also high in the nutrient lutein. Now, there has to be something in that list that you like. I can make the whole list sound delicious by telling you that green algae can also be used to treat degenerative sight problems. Makes spinach and kale sound good, doesn’t it.
