Give your family foods rich in nutrients showing eye health promoting properties, such as antioxidants, Lutein and Zeaxanthin, Omega 3 Fatty Acids, Zinc, Beta-Carotene, Vitamin D and Fiber. Eyefoods: A Food Plan for Healthy Eyes describes these nutrients and identifies the amounts of each nutrient that has been scientifically shown to decrease the risk of certain eye diseases. Orange Peppers Eye nutrients: Zeaxanthin and lutein, vitamin C, vitamin E, beta-carotene Weekly target: ½ pepper 4 times per week Overview: Of all the different colored peppers, orange peppers have the highest amount of eye nutrients. Just half of a large orange pepper contains nearly 50% of the eyefoods daily vitamin C target, making them the number one eyefood source of this essential nutrient. With higher levels of vitamin E than other vegetables, orange peppers are an excellent low-calorie source of the vitamin, which is more commonly obtained from fat and oils. What about green, red, and yellow peppers? Orange peppers have just the right mix of nutrients to make them an eyefood on their own, although yellow, red, and green peppers also contain high amounts of vitamin C. Meal Ideas: • Enjoy raw orange pepper strips as a snack or as part of a vegetable plate. • Add chopped orange peppers to a spinach or bean salad. • Cut an orange pepper in half or in quarters to make a pepper boat. Fill with egg, tuna, or turkey salad for a healthy lunch. • Saute´ orange, red, and yellow peppers with skinless, boneless turkey breast as a filling.
