Contains Lutein and Zeaxanthin:
Lutein and Zeaxanthin intake increases macular pigment density. Lutein and Zeaxanthin are principal components of the macular, where they are collectively known as macular pigment and where they are believed to play a major role in protecting retinal tissues against oxidative stress.
To ensure the best possible eye health outcomes for patients, FloraGLO® Lutein and Optisharp™ Zeaxanthin, as used in the Age-Related Eye Disease Study 2 (AREDS-2) clinical research trial, are chosen as the key ingredients.
Antioxidants
Antioxidants act as ‘free-radical scavengers’. Free radicals are common in the body, arising through a variety of mechanisms. Many of these free radicals are dealt with by the body’s own free radical, antioxidant defences. Some free radicals, however, escape these defences and cause cellular damage. Research suggests that accumulation of free radical cellular damage can result in degenerative conditions.
The antioxidants Zinc and vitamins C and E play a significant role in defending against free radical damage in the macular region of the retina and lens of the eye.
