Im 50 and do not require corrective glasses whatsoever. I have been unwittingly eating these foods for 15 years not knowing the additional benefit to eye health. These foods work!

Blueberries and coconut milk. Perfect combo.

This is great! I had Smoked Salmon today in a fusilli pasta salad, veggies and a dressing with mayonnaise, lemon juice, pinch of salt, fresh ground pepper, pitch of cayenne. Simply the best! I did not know I would like salmon and the pink Himalayan salt made it delicious. I have been working on all my spices to go organic, the pink salt is awesome and organic cinnamon is delicious. Of course I did not put the cinnamon in the salad but it is great in pumpkin pancakes. This video is great, I have been adding these vegetables into my diet planning in more ways than one. Thank you.

Try to decrease you exposure to blue light.. computers, iPads, phones wear sun glasses out in the sun.. will also help.

Love these video!!!! Thank you much for sharing just great information!!!! I'm sharing too! Keep up the great work!

Make no mistake about this one, which is that I am all about correcting my distance vision, and not correcting my up close vision, because over correcting distance vision is important, because being able to see better far away than normal gives you more advantages than having any correction to up close vision without glasses proves that the farther you see without glasses the better outcome, because than you don't have to worry about the limits that do exist!

Thanks dr. Josh for amazing informative video... God bless you...

[hasank]

great video... why not offset the camera slightly to the left and also move to the left of the screen so people can see the screen and move the camera closer to see the screen behind more closer.

I thought the videos before looked better and more engaging... good info! thanks doc!

Vit A = organ meats, spinach & sweet potatoes are high in oxalates which can be a problem not just for kidneys.

I'd really like to ave a full diet done by you and Josh Axe, Jordan.
