Jarrow Lutein Product Information
- Lutein 20 mg/Zeaxanthin 1 mg
- Lutein 20 mg Each Softgel from 40 mg Lutein Ester
- Supports Visual Function and Protects the Macula
- Dietary Supplement
Lutein is an antioxidant carotenoid that occurs in nature with
zeaxanthin, a closely related carotenoid. Lutein and zeaxanthin
concentrate in the eye's macula and lens, as well as in the skin,
breast and cervical tissues. Both lutein and zeaxanthin protect the
macula from degradation normally associated with aging and oxidative
stress. The macula is responsible for focus and color differentiation.
Lutein and zeaxanthin are found in dark green, leafy vegetables. While
the average American intake of lutein is only 2 mg per day, other
population groups consume up to 20 to 25 mg per day.
Jarrow Formulas Lutein is extracted from marigold petals. Each
softgel contains 20 mg elemental lutein from 40 mg lutein esters, which
are naturally occurring, more stable and are well absorbed.
Suggested Use
Take 1 softgel per day with food, or as directed by your qualified health care consultant.
