Lutein is present in the retina, but the human body is unable to synthesize the compound naturally, so lutein must be supplied to the body from the outside, either through the daily diet or in the form of supplements. The substance can be obtained from egg yolk, as well as from plant products such as spinach, kale, pumpkin, carrots, and parsley. Zeaxanthin: an organic chemical compound from the xanthophyll group. It is a carotenoid that occurs naturally in the retina. Zeaxanthin can be supplied to the body with food or in the form of dietary supplements. Dietary sources of this compound include tomatoes, corn, broccoli, and spinach, among others. Lutein and zeaxanthin are free radical-scavenging carotenoid pigments often found together in plants. In the body, they are deposited in the macula, a specialized area of the eye responsible for central vision. They act as primary filters of high-energy blue light. Lutein and zeaxanthin help promote normal eye health by neutralizing free radicals formed by light exposure. This product is formulated to promote normal recovery from bright light exposure and the maintenance of healthy contrast sensitivity. This combination improves and protects eye function, strengthening its tissue, increasing the range of vision, and enhancing its quality, thus preventing eye problems. It also strengthens the retina and blood vessels in the walls of the eye. Lutein and zeaxanthin act by improving the health of eye function, especially in problems associated with age.
