Lutein and zeaxanthin are two carotenoids particularly good at protecting the eyes, the arteries and the lungs from damaging free radicals. Fruits and vegetables, especially dark green leafy vegetables like spinach and kale, are rich in lutein. Although we all know we should be increasing our daily consumption of vegetables, most of us could do better. Webberr Naturals Lutein is made from marigold flowers that contain 20 times more concentrations of potential lutein than spinach.
Lutein acts as an antioxidant, protecting cells against the damaging effects of free radicals. Scientific studies with Lutein have had encouraging results in preventing and even reversing macular degeneration the loss of vision most common in people over 40. Lutein is suitable for people who spend long hours in front of a computer monitor, have a family history of eye disease or who may have damage from the suns rays. With 20mg of FloraGloT Lutein in every capsule, this product is an extra strength formula for superior antioxidant support.
Lutein and Zeaxanthin are important carotenoids present in vegetables (esp. Kale, Broccoli, Brussel Sprouts and Spinach) and blood serum.
Lutein is especially important to relieve eye disorders, such as Macular Degeneration and cataracts. Lutein and Zeaxanthin are deposited specifically in the macula of the eye, and its role postulated to prevent photo-oxidation.
Macular Degeneration is the leading cause of blindness in adults over the age of 40 years old, for which there is no cure or treatment. Lutein consumption has also been associated with reduced risk of heart disease and cancer of the cervix, breast and lungs possibly due to its anti-oxidant ability and concentration of these carotenoids in these body tissues, even during diseased states.
