It is crystalline lutein suspended in sunflower oil. Lutein is a carotenoid which is present in our daily diet since it is found in dark green leafy vegetables such as spinach. However, the intake needed to notice its health benefits is very high (6-10 mg per day), according to research. As other carotenoids, lutein is an effective antioxidant that protects from blue light absorption and it is also, selectively, accumulated in the macula of human retina, and filters potentially phototoxic blue light and near-ultraviolet radiation. Lutein not only supports eye health, but also reduces the skin´s sensibility against UV light damages. This product is an orange thick liquid with a slightly floral odor. 收起 |
