See clearly with these power veggies

Posted on May 18th 2008 9:00AM by Jacki Donaldson
Here are some must-haves to jot down on your next grocery list: Leafy spinach, kale, turnip greens, squash, green peas, broccoli, and corn. These are just a few of the foods rich in lutein and zeaxanthin -- two plant nutrients one large study reveals can reduce your risk of developing age-related macular degeneration.

You might be 35 percent more likely to ward off the most serious form of macular degeneration by incorporating these veggies into your diet. So get them on your list, get them in your cart, and get them in your mouth. They'll do your body good. You'll see.

Happy shopping. Happy eating.
