bone stewed carrot soup
Carrots are considered a "golden" food for the eyes because they contain a lot of beta-caroten, a precursor to vitamin A.
According to research published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, vitamin A plays an essential role in the formation of cadence pigmentation rhodopsin, which helps the eyes see clearly in low light and prevents goosebumps.
bone carrot soup not only provides beta-caroten but also supplements collagen and calcium from stewed bones, helping to improve corneal health.
When cooking, add a little olive oil or sesame oil to help absorb carotenoids better, because this nutrient dissolves in fat.
Eat carrot soup 2-3 times a week, especially for children, the elderly or people with signs of eye strain due to long periods of working at a computer.
Spinach soup with shrimp
Malabar spinach is a familiar vegetable in Vietnamese meals, but few people know that it contains a lot of lutein and zeaxanthin, two important antioxidant compounds concentrated in the golden spot of the eye.
A diet rich in lutein and zeaxanthin helps reduce the risk of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) by up to 25%, the leading cause of blindness in the elderly.
Combining Malabar spinach with shrimp, a natural source of protein and zinc, also helps support eye tissue regeneration and improve visual function. A study in the Journal of Ophthalmology shows that zinc helps enhance the effectiveness of vitamin A in protecting the retina.
You should eat shrimp spinach soup twice a week to supplement eye nutrients and increase overall resistance.
Red pumpkin soup with green beans
