Imiphumela yocwaningo, ebifundisisa uhlobo lokukhula kwe-cataract kwabesifazane asebekhulile, ibijabulisa. Njengoba kwenzekile, ukudla ukudla okunevithamini C ephezulu kungavikela kakhulu ukubona kwamehlo.
Ekuhlolweni kuthathe amaqoqo amawele angama-324. Eminyakeni eyishumi eyedlule, abacwaningi baqaphe indlela abadla ngayo kanye nesifo sabo. Kubahlanganyeli abadle ukudla okunokuqukethwe okuphezulu kwe-vitamin C, ukuqhubeka kwe-cataract kwehliswe ngama-10% amaningi. UVitamin C uthinte umswakama wemvelo wamehlo, obumvikela ekungenweni yilesi sifo.
I-Ascorbic acid inokuningi ku:
- amawolintshi,
- ulamula,
- upelepele obomvu noluhlaza okotshani,
- ama-strawberry,
- i-broccoli
- amazambane.
Kepha amaphilisi kavithamini ngeke asize. Abaphenyi bathi ababoni ukwehla okukhulu kobungozi kubantu abathatha amaphilisi kavithamini. Ngakho-ke, uvithamini C kufanele udliwe ngesimo sezithelo nemifino.
Umcwaningi oholayo, uProfesa Chris Hammond waseKing College London, uthe: “Izinguquko ezilula ekudleni njengokunyuka kwezithelo nemifino njengengxenye yokudla okunempilo kungasiza ekuvikeleni ku-cataract.”
I-cataract yisifo esihlasela abantu asebekhulile ama-460 kwabesifazane abayi-1000 nabesilisa abangama-260 kwabangu-1000. Ukufiphazwa kwelensi yeso okuthinta ukubona.
Okuningi mayelana nezinzuzo zezempilo zamawolintshi kanye nokulimala okufundwe ku-athikili yethu enkulu:
