What are lutein and zeaxanthin?
Lutein and zeaxanthin are natural, fat-soluble pigments from the carotenoid family. They are especially abundant in yellow-orange flowers, leafy greens and corn. These two carotenoids are among the few that accumulate in the human eye, particularly in the macula lutea and the lens.

What is the function of vitamin A?
The macula lutea is the centre of sharp vision in the retina and home to a high density of sensory cells. Lutein and zeaxanthin accumulate in this region as well as in the eye’s lens. Vitamin A, a fat-soluble nutrient, plays an essential role in numerous bodily functions, most notably, it supports the maintenance of normal vision.

Why is Tagetes erecta used as a source of lutein?
The African marigold (Tagetes erecta) is one of the richest natural sources of lutein and also naturally contains zeaxanthin. Both compounds are gently extracted from the flower petals using a process designed to preserve their natural structure.

 

Recommended intake

2 capsules once a day. Best taken with a high-fat meal and 250 ml of still, lukewarm water.
Tip: add a teaspoon of omega-3 oil to increase bioavailability.


Can the colour of the capsules vary with lutein & zeaxanthin?


At NatuGena, we rely on natural raw materials. Our guiding principle, ‘Knowledge of how naturalness creates health’, means that we use natural raw materials in our products. This is why the colour, taste, capsule size and net weight of our products may vary from batch to batch.
Lutein & Zeaxanthin contains secondary plant substances (including carotenoids) from marigold in its formula. As the name suggests, these give the product its characteristic light yellow to orange colour. Depending on the harvest, the intensity of the colour may be subject to natural variations.
