Keep Your Eyes Healthy

by laurel on March 31, 2007

Cooking Light Magazine reports that a cup of cooked frozen spinach has 29,811 micrograms of lutein and zeaxanthin (carotenoids that keep your eyes healthy by lowering the risk of AMD and cataracts).  The amount of carotenoids found in spinach is the highest found in any food.
