Lutein Vitamin

Many people think lutein is a vitamin but it is not. Lutein belongs to the class of carotenoids which are compounds found in fruits and vegetables. Other carotenoids include zeaxanthin, lycopene, and beta carotene. Lutein would not be classified as a vitamin, but rather as a beneficial plant substance. Lutein is required to be ingested through the diet since it it found in high amounts in the retina and helps in providing optimal vision.

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 serves to protect the retina from damage caused by light or oxidation. This Lutein product is extracted from the marigold flower.
