While corn is a starchy vegetable with more natural sugars than non-starchy veggies (lettuce, peppers, onions, broccoli, etc.) it does still have quite a few reasons to keep it part of a healthy diet. It contains fiber which is good for gut health while helping you feel full between meals. It has vitamin C as well as being a good source of lutein and zeaxanthin, both of which we need for eye health and to prevent cataracts. (source)
