Super Zeaxanthin with Lutein, Meso-Zeaxanthin Plus Astaxanthin and C3G

Super Zeaxanthin with Lutein, Meso-Zeaxanthin Plus Astaxanthin and C3G

The macula, a tiny area at the center of the retina on the back wall of the eye, is a collection of photoreceptor cells, mostly cone cells, responsible for turning light into color images. Being yellow in color allows the macula to absorb excess blue and ultraviolet light that enter the eye, acting as a natural sunblock or sunglasses for this area of the retina. The yellow color is due to the presence of the macular pigment.

Macular pigment is composed of three carotenoids:

  • Lutein and Zeaxanthin Benefits include:

    • Helping to filter out harmful blue light and preventing free radical damage to the delicate structures in the back of the eye.
    • Acting as antioxidants in the eye, they help to protect and maintain healthy cells.
    • Playing a role in cataract prevention.
    • A recent study demonstrated that higher dietary intakes of lutein and zeaxanthin along with vitamin E was associated with a significantly decreased risk of cataract formation.
    • Reducing the risk Age Related Macular Degeneration (AMD).

    There have been several studies have showing that lutein and zeaxanthin improve visual performance in AMD patients, cataract patients and individuals with good health.

  • Meso-zeaxanthin which is formed from lutein in the retina. It is required by the aging macula to maintain its structural density.

    Meso-zeaxanthin is not part of the typical diet, it cannot be replaced except in supplement form.

    Patients with macular degeneration have been shown to have 30% less meso-zeaxanthin in their macula compared to healthy eyes. This lack of meso-zeaxanthin is due to an inability to adequately convert lutein to meso-zeaxanthin in the retina.

This Super Zeaxanthin formula provides therapeutic doses of all three of these carotenoids to help protect your precious eyesight.

Additional ingredients included in this formula are:

  • Astaxanthin a naturally occurring carotenoid pigment.

    Benefits Include:

    • Being a powerful biological antioxidant
    • Exhibiting strong free radical scavenging activity.
    • Providing protection against lipid peroxidation and oxidative damage of LDL-cholesterol, cell membranes, cells, and tissues.
    • May play a preventative role in eye fatigue.
    • In clinical trials conducted by Japanese scientists, it was demonstrated to be effective in reducing bleary-eye feeling, a tendency toward irritation, and preventing eye strain resulting from accommodative dysfunction.

  • C3G(Cyanidin-3-glucoside)from European black currant extract

    Benefits include:

    • Promotes the healthy function of delicate structures within the retina that help with night vision

This special combination of ingredients is an exciting breakthrough in eye care.
