30 Risposte a “Podcast: Protecting Our Vision”

  1. I'm in my late 50's and was diagnosed with ARMD a couple of years ago. I've been taking the AREDS2 supplements but also eat a variety of greens and eat a WFPB diet most of the time. I had so many sunburns when I was younger and I'm sure fried my eyes. My brown eyed dad also had ARMD. I will keep taking the supplements because my fear of blindness is strong.

  2. As an African-American person, I take some offense at the assumption that we eat collard greens all day. We are not all the same, so we do not all eat the same diet. I must admit, I am also a little taken it back by the introduction of the diet to help glaucoma. Why not start with “ glaucoma is the leading cause of blindness in African-Americans”? Why was it necessary to first introduce the number of white women less affected by the disease, and then switch to African-Americans? I fear that it was a way to invite the audience to take the information more seriously, assuming that they may not otherwise. I’ve read every book you’ve ever written and I’ve watched every video that you’ve ever made, but I couldn’t finish this one because it distressed me too greatly. I really expected more sensitivity from you. I do thank you for all the work that you’ve done.

  4. Dr Greger talks about Near-work induced transient myopia!!! Fantastic!! Fun Fact: If you go to an eye doctor with NITM they will most likely put glasses on your face. Fun Fact: the glasses then cause subsequent lengthening of the eyeball = Lens induced myopia and more blur in the distance. Fun fact: you go back to the eye doctor, they give you stronger glasses. Fun fact: this blur progression continues for the rest of your life. Fun fact: if you wear weaker glasses for close work, (about a diopter less than your full prescription) get outside, battle and overcome screen addiction, phone use etc you can REVERSE the blur and get back to 20/20!! Fun fact: I started with Left eye -7.75 and Right eye -6.25. Fun Fact: now at Left -5.5 and Right -4.5 and still getting better vision.

  5. Will spending many hours taking photographs outdoors increase the chances of a macular hole in the eye? I use my right eye on the camera, but my macukar hole and retina detachment are both on my left eye. Hope this may be one of your research projects in the future. I am Chinese with brown skin. Thank you

  6. Since going plant-based, my vision has improved quite a bit. I went in for my eye exam and the doctor noted that my prescription over the previous few years had gone down progressively from 6 diopters to 2.5 in one eye and 2.75 in the other. I also needed a 1.75 correction for reading and now I need none. Then during the pandemic, I stopped wearing glasses entirety since my glasses got fogged up due to wearing a mask. I figured better to see a little rather than not at all. I found that I could get along just fine without glasses and so now I don't bother with glasses.

  7. I bought your new book yesterday at Barnes & Noble in St. Petersburg, Florida yesterday. Thanks for the great work you do to help keep me and so many others healthy!

  8. I'm reading these comments without glasses. I had to wear reading glasses for about five years but 18 months of WFPB nutrition later (1 meal per week or 5% might have some crap in it) I can read right down to a 12 font size. They told me this (macular degeneration) was an irreversible condition that comes with aging. They told me a lot of my problems (joint pain, weight gain, depression, anxiety, lethargy, shortness of breath) were age related and they were wrong about all of that too.

    I simply can't believe how sick I was and my doctor had no answers when a few doors down from his office is a store full of legumes, nuts, herbs, spices, mushrooms, fruit and vegetables.

    I went and asked healthy people what they were doing, and stopped listening to my lardass doctor.

  9. "Nuts and seeds" for increasing absorption of lut./zea./fatty vitamins: I remember studies with some oil doing that. (People typically use that). Is there actual evidence for 'clunky nut & seed bits' doing as well. Is the fat in it present in the intestine early enough when needed for that absorption?

  10. The fact that supplements are so unreliable is maybe good reason to eat a small amount of animal produce, such as fish, instead of taking a B12 supplement. Maybe 80% plants and 20% animal.
