Carotenoids: Eye-friendly Nutrients
Carotenoids are a class of phytonutrients (plant chemicals) that are obtained from diet or supplements. Eating foods or taking supplements that contain carotenoids can offer a wide range of health benefits. For instance: the carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin are the main pigments in the macular portion of the eye’s retina. Lutein and zeaxanthin protect your eye against light and free radical-induced damage.

"The nutrients our eyes need are hard to come by, and studies show that our bodies sometimes lose the ability to produce them as we age. With MacuGuard® Ocular Support with Saffron, you'll get all the nutrients you need to protect your eyes from oxidative stress.
"We also have a version of MacuGuard® that adds astaxanthin. This helps support your vascular health within the eye and helps fight eye fatigue."
--Dr. Michael A. Smith, MD: Director of Education and Spokesperson for Life Extension.
The carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin are the main components of your macular pigment, and help protect the eyes from the effects of excess blue and ultraviolet light.1-3
