MM Lutein & Zeaxanthin 25MG,150 ct.

Lutein and Zeaxanthin are natural pigments, also known as “carotenoids,” fat-soluble antioxidants found in fruits, vegetables and plants—including marigolds and sunflowers. Antioxidants protect the body from cellular and tissue damage caused by harmful molecules called free radicals, which cause a “biological rusting” (oxidation) and may enhance the negative effects of aging. The retina (or “macula”) is a light-sensitive tissue that lines the inner surface of the eye. The macula contains the highest concentration of Lutein and Zeaxanthin. In a healthy body, Lutein and Zeaxanthin are naturally present in a 5:1 ratio. Research has shown that adding Lutein and Zeaxanthin to a healthy diet may support eye health and overall vision health.*
