Age-Related Macular Degeneration is the leading cause of blindness in westernized societies. This video is one Opthalmologist’s review of why AMD has gone from a rare disorder in the 1850’s to the epidemic it has become today. The presentation is an hour long, but it is not real science heavy so it’s easy to follow. Dr. Chris Knobbe, MD, presents a fascinating and sound argument that our modern diet of processed foods is responsible for blinding millions of people.
