Researchers found that increasing consumption of carotenoids, beta-carotene & lutein, might reduce the risk for this progressive neurological disease, which attacks nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. Carrots, yams & mangoes are rich in beta-carotenes, & spinach, collard greens & egg yolks are good sources of lutein.

However, diets rich in the antioxidants lycopene, beta-cryptoxanthin & vitamin C do not apparently reduce the risk for ALS.
