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 eyes from 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.
