For friends who often have to face computers, the health of their eyes will be greatly threatened. Some people drink a lot of water before going to bed to moisten dry eyes, but the next morning, their eyes will swell. Here is a popular method for friends, which can effectively protect eyes and avoid the embarrassment caused by eye edema-smearing clean cotton around eyes with chrysanthemum water can quickly eliminate edema.
Chrysanthemum is very effective in treating dry eyes, fatigue and blurred vision. China has known since ancient times that chrysanthemums can protect eyes. Therefore, in addition to smearing your eyes, you may wish to soak some chrysanthemum tea often. If you can drink three or four cups of chrysanthemum tea every day, it will not only make the symptoms of eye fatigue disappear, but also help to restore your vision.
There are many kinds of chrysanthemums. People who don't know the doorways often choose chrysanthemums with big white flowers. Actually, this is a misunderstanding. The real choice should be small, ugly and yellow. It is best to drink chrysanthemum tea without tea, just soak the dried chrysanthemum in water or boil it. Hot drinks in winter and iced drinks in summer all taste good.
Lycium barbarum is a kind of medicine with strong medicinal properties. The ancients once thought that it could make people live forever. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that it can enhance liver and kidney function and increase body fluid. Suitable for fatigue, lumbago, knee pain, dizziness, headache and other symptoms.
Eyes are visual organs, stimulated by light, which make the body perceive the images, colors and movements of objective objects. The main part of the eye is the eyeball. The reason why the eyes can see objects is that the transparent matrix of cornea, aqueous humor, lens and vitreous body of the eyeball distorts and turns the external light to the retina. The retina can feel the stimulation of light because it contains two kinds of photosensitive cells, namely cone cells and rod cells. Under the action of light, a series of chemical changes have taken place in photoreceptor cells. Through these chemical changes, light energy can be converted into electrical energy, causing nerve impulses and transmitting them to the visual center to produce vision.
In medicine, the ability of the eye to finely distinguish the shape of an object, that is, the ability to distinguish the minimum distance between two points, is called vision. There are many reasons for poor eyesight. They are: ① various types of ametropia, including hyperopia, myopia and astigmatism; ② lens opacity, that is, cataract; ③ corneal opacity; ④ vitreous opacity and hemorrhage; ⑤ optic nerve diseases, such as optic nerve atrophy. Optic neuritis, retrobulbar optic neuritis, chronic glaucoma and toxic amblyopia; ⑥ Circulatory blindness, occasionally seen in severe uremia and retinal arteriosclerosis, is mostly temporary; ⑦ Vein or retinal tumor and retinal detachment; 8 acute glaucoma; Pet-name ruby acute iriditis; Attending intraocular bleeding, etc. Among them, myopia is the most common, which is caused by many reasons, such as poor learning environment, incorrect reading and writing posture, too long reading time, weakness, anemia, endocrine disorders, excessive fatigue and so on. Health food for improving visual function can adjust and improve the physiological mechanism of myopia through the above links.
1. A food with eyesight improving effect
To protect eyesight and prevent eye diseases, we need to start from many aspects, among which paying attention to nutrition is also helpful to improve eyesight. In the daily diet, foods that can improve eyesight are:
(1) Foods rich in vitamin A are closely related to normal vision. If vitamin A is insufficient, the regeneration of rhodopsin is slow and incomplete, and the dark adaptation time is prolonged, which can cause night blindness in severe cases. If vitamin A in the diet continues to be deficient or insufficient, dry eye will appear, and the condition will further develop into corneal softening and corneal ulcer, as well as corneal folds and Pitt spots. The best food sources of vitamin A are various animal livers, cod liver oil, fish eggs and poultry eggs. Vitamin A contained in carrots, spinach, amaranth, alfalfa, red sweet potatoes, pumpkins, green peppers and other vegetables can be converted into vitamin A in the body.
(2) Foods rich in vitamin C can reduce the damage of light and oxygen to the lens of eyes, thus delaying the occurrence of cataracts. Foods containing vitamin C include persimmon pepper, tomato, lemon, kiwi fruit, hawthorn and other fresh vegetables and fruits. (3) Calcium, calcium is related to eyeball composition, and calcium deficiency can lead to myopia. Teenagers are at the peak of their growth, and the demand for calcium in their bodies is relatively increasing. If you don't pay attention to calcium supplementation, it will not only affect bone development, but also reduce the elasticity of the developing eyeball wall-sclera, increase the internal pressure of the lens, lead to the elongation of the anterior and posterior diameter of the eyeball, and lead to myopia. Foods containing more calcium mainly include milk and its products, shellfish (shrimp), bone meal, beans and bean products, egg yolk, dark green vegetables and so on.
(4) chromium, chromium deficiency is easy to cause myopia, chromium can activate insulin, so that islets can play the greatest biological effect. For example, the lack of chromium in human body will hinder the function of insulin in regulating blood sugar, increase the osmotic pressure of plasma, lead to the increase of osmotic pressure and diopter of eyeball lens and aqueous humor, and thus induce myopia. Chromium is mostly found in brown rice and wheat bran, and it is also abundant in animal liver, grape juice and nuts.
(5) Zinc, zinc deficiency will lead to visual impairment, and zinc is mainly distributed in bones and blood in the body. Corneal epidermis, iris, retina and lens also contain zinc. Zinc participates in the replacement and transportation of vitamin A in the eyes, maintains the normal tissue state of retinal pigment epithelium and maintains normal visual function. Foods containing more zinc include oysters, meat, liver, eggs, peanuts, wheat, beans and miscellaneous grains.
(6) Pearl, which contains more than 95% calcium carbonate and a small amount of minerals such as magnesium oxide and aluminum oxide, and contains a variety of amino acids, such as leucine, methionine, alanine, glycine, glutamic acid and aspartic acid. Pearl is sweet, salty and cold. The "Zhu Zhen Powder" made of pearl powder, borneol and amber can inhibit the formation of cataract.
(7) kelp. Kelp contains 1/3 mannitol in addition to iodine. There is a thick layer of "frost" on the surface of dried kelp, which is mannitol in kelp. Mannitol has diuretic effect, which can reduce intraocular pressure and has a good effect on the treatment of acute glaucoma. Other seaweeds such as Undaria pinnatifida also contain mannitol, which can also be used as an auxiliary food to treat acute glaucoma.
2. Health foods that help improve eyesight can increase nutrition and improve eyesight through diet, so eat more of the above foods. If we can choose appropriate health food that can improve our eyesight on the basis of daily diet, it can play a very good role in adjuvant therapy. Optional healthy foods are:
(1) Foods rich in vitamin A, such as medlar products.
(2) It is rich in protein, polypeptide and some amino acids, such as taurine and nucleic acid.
The most important thing is persistence. You can choose what suits you.
I hope it works for you. O(∩_∩)O ha!
