Columbia, SC, USA –<\/strong> By now, you’ve likely heard about lutein. Lutein<\/a> does the body good but you may be wondering what it is and why it’s so important for you. Lutein is a type of carotenoid, which is a fat soluble, yellow to red pigment found in many vegetables and plants. Carotenoids give brightly colored vegetables and autumn leaves their color. Lutein<\/a> is known to be a yellow pigment, but it appears orange-red in higher concentrations. The best news is that lutein is thought to be beneficial for the eyes because it concentrates in the macula.<\/p>\n

Supplements<\/a> are a great way to get lutein into your body, so we’ll highlight a few here. The lutein in these supplements is derived from marigold extract, which is common for lutein, and the zeaxanthin is usually from red peppers, although it can also be extracted from marigolds.<\/p>\n

Top 3 Lutein Supplements:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

1. <\/strong>HEYEDRATE LUTEIN AND ZEAXANTHIN<\/a><\/p>\n

Maintains healthy macular pigment and protects the eyes from free radical damage with 20 mg Lutein and 1 mg Zeaxanthin<\/strong>. This new, simple, easy-to-use formula ensures that your eyes will be protected from blue light and oxidative damage, which can threaten your vision. By starting an eye vitamin regimen with Heyedrate’s Lutein and Zeaxanthin, you can be sure that you’re giving your eyes the best chance at maintaining your eye health for better vision, long into the future. One easy to use, quick release softgel per day provides the lutein and zeaxanthin to start fighting aging eyes and enhance macular and retinal health to preserve your very best vision.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

2. <\/strong>HEYEDRATE OCULAR HEALTH FORMULA<\/a>
<\/strong>
This formula is specifically for those with macular degeneration or for those desiring a more complex ocular formula for enhanced protection. This supplement protects the retina with Vitamin C, Vitamin D, Vitamin E, Zinc, Copper, Selenium, Vitamin B-6, Folate, Lutein, Zeaxanthin, Bilberry, Alpha-Lipoic Acid, Grapeseed Extract, and L-Glutathione<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

3. PURE ENCAPSULATIONS LUTEIN\/ZEAXANTHIN
<\/strong>
This hypoallergenic line of supplements contains 10 mg Lutein and 2 mg Zeaxanthin for overall eye protection. The simple formula is great for those who wish to ensure visual health for a lifetime.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Contrary to other supplements, there is no recommended daily allowance or intake of lutein. The AREDS studies looked at 10 mg lutein, and at least this amount is often found in supplements. There are no known toxic effects of taking too much lutein (or any of the other carotenoids).<\/p>\n

Lutein has so many great benefits for the eyes and vision that it’s well worth looking into a supplement or ramping up your intake via dietary sources such as green leafy vegetables, colorful peppers, squash, sweet potatoes, and carrots.<\/p>\n
