Information @ a Glance
- Lutein is a dietary
carotenoid that is present in most fruits and vegetables as well
as human plasma, breast milk, organs, tissues, and ocular
tissues
- Lutein used in dietary
supplements and the food industry is commercially derived from
the dried petals of marigold flowers, the most abundant source
of lutein in nature
- Lutein is the primary
carotenoid in the macula (the central area of the eye’s retina).
Clinical studies have shown that lutein may protect the macula
from potentially damaging forms of light and thus may slow or
stop the progress of Age-Related Macular Degeneration
- About 80% of the content that
is found in marigolds is lutein and 5% is zeaxanthin
- Marigold flowers (Tagetes
erecta) are grown, harvested, dried, and then pellets are
manufactured from the dried flower petals .
- The marigold extract is
heated to increase flowability and then purified by a patented
process.
- This process removes the
fatty acids commonly found in marigold extract and produces
crystalline lutein and zeaxanthin.
