Lutein

Poor nutrition is one of the leading causes of eye deterioration. Studies show that lutein is an important component of visual function and healthy vision depends on good nutrition.*

Lutein is a naturally occurring antioxidant carotenoid found in large concentrations in the eye. Lutein in the macula protects the eyes by blocking harmful blue light rays. Marigold flower petals naturally contain high amounts of lutein.

Research shows that lutein intake through diet and supplementation correlates directly to the amount of lutein found in the macula of the eye. Macular degeneration is a leading cause of blindness in adults.*
