Lutein and zeaxanthin, forming the macular pigment, are a protection for the organ of vision. It protects the eyes from the effects of sunlight and has an antioxidant effect.
Functional action:
To maintain health and protect against infections, our body needs antioxidants. One of them is lutein and zeaxanthin (Lutein & Zeaxanthin), which are produced by the American vitamin manufacturer NOW Foods in gel capsules.
Many people know how useful lutein and zeaxanthin are for vision, so we try to eat more raw green leafy vegetables, orange, yellow and red fruits and vegetables (spinach, red pepper, raspberries, paprika, avocado, kale and many others), since lutein and zeaxanthin are not synthesized in the body, but must come from food.
To maintain good vision, a person should receive from 5 to 10 mg of lutein with food every day (250 g of spinach or 500 g of sweet pepper).
However, our usual diet contains much less lutein than the norm. NOW Foods can help us by presenting this complex for protecting the eyes when working at a computer and optimizing the functioning of the visual apparatus during increased visual loads, age-related changes.
Lutein and zeaxanthin protect the retina, its central part (macula), and the lens from destruction. These carotenoids naturally accumulate in the retina, maintain healthy light sensing and contrast sensitivity, and reduce the brightness of light.
They not only protect the macula from the effects of the blue spectrum of sunlight, but also prevent the development of atherosclerosis of blood vessels, including the vessels of the eye, prevent the development of cataracts, diabetic retinopathy.
