Source Naturals - Lutein, 20 mg, 60 Capsules

Lutein is a potent antioxidant carotenoid found in abundance in fruits and green leafy vegetables. Lutein is also one of the dominant pigments found in the macular region of the retina. In the macula, lutein is selectively accumulated from plasma and filters out visible blue light. Recent studies suggest this filtering process sevens to protect the retina from damage caused by light or oxidation. Source Naturals LUTEIN is extracted from the marigold flower and purified by an exclusive patented process (US Patent No. 5,382,714).

FloraGlo lutein studies
Lutein interacts with ascorbic acid more frequently than with alpha-tocopherol to alter biomarkers of oxidative stress in female zucker obese rats.
J Nutr. 2003 Sep;133(9):2838-44. Blakely S, Herbert A, Collins M, Jenkins M, Mitchell G, Grundel E, O'Neill KR, Khachik F. Food and Drug Administration, College Park, MD 20740, USA.
The influence of dietary lutein, with and without moderate amounts of vitamin C or vitamin E, on biomarkers of oxidative stress was examined in rats. Nine groups of immature Zucker obese (fa/fa) and lean female rats (8/group) consumed ad libitum for 8 wk the AIN-93G diet (Control) to which was added either dl-alpha-tocopherol acetate at 0.60 mg/kg or ascorbic acid at 0.75 mg/kg diet. Each of these diets contained lutein oil (FloraGlo) at 0.5 or 1.0 mg/kg diet. These results suggest that lutein independently reduces the activity of SOD and alters more biomarkers of oxidative stress when combined with vitamin C than with vitamin E, and that vitamin E reduces liver lipid peroxidation in obese rats when the accumulation of liver alpha-tocopherol is very high.
