What Is MacuGuard Ocular Support?

MacuGuard® Ocular Support with Saffron & Astaxanthin provides important nutrients that help protect the eye’s delicate photoreceptor cells, promote macular and retinal health, help fight eye fatigue and support healthy night vision.

The nutrients our eyes need are often hard to come by, but it’s worth making sure we get enough of them to keep our eyes healthy over time.

  • Contains lutein, meso-zeaxanthin & zeaxanthin for eye health support
  • Provides comprehensive ocular nutrition in a single softgel
  • Helps fight eye fatigue with astaxanthin
  • Includes berry flavonoids to support night vision

What are the health benefits of astaxanthin?

Astaxanthin promotes ocular health, supports heart and mitochondrial health, promotes a healthy inflammatory response and more.

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.

Why Should I Supplement With MacuGuard® Ocular Support with Saffron & Astaxanthin?

"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. It also includes C3G, a cutting-edge berry flavonoid compound that helps support nighttime vision.

"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 nutrients our eyes need are often hard to come by, but it’s worth making sure we get enough of them to keep our eyes healthy over time.  For instance: 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
