Is Macular Degeneration Preventable?

STORY AT-A-GLANCE
While most people dealing with macular degeneration accept it as a sad reality of aging or genetics, one expert suggests the disease is preventable through dietary changes

Ophthalmologist Dr. Chris Knobbe, founder and president of the Cure AMD Foundation, asserts the skyrocketing rates of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) worldwide are actually caused by the increased consumption of processed food

Knobbe asserts those consuming the most processed food not only develop AMD, but are also more likely to be affected by cancer, heart disease, hypertension, obesity, Type 2 diabetes and stroke

Because macular degeneration is an irreversible condition, prevention is key; eating a whole food diet, blocking blue light and sleeping in total darkness are a few of the ways you can protect yourself from AMD
