Planning your diet around antioxidant content is a good thing to do even if your high-risk years for cataracts are far away. And you don’t even have to memorize a list. Just aim for color : greens (leafy veggies), oranges ( the fruit named for the color as well as sweet potatoes); yellows (sqashes and bananas); reds (apples, cabbages, and beets0; and purples (brinjals, peppers, asparagus, and beans).
