Your eyes require lutein to function properly.

Mmm, I just finished prepping dinner so it'll be quick to throw together when my fiance comes home. I made steak with a marinade of tamari, ketchup, olive oil, basil, garlic, and a bit of honey. The other-half will grill it for me. Bought some good-looking semi-locally grown green beans to steam, along with brown rice. They had really ripe plums at Whole...
