Product Description of Xanthophyll CAS#127-40-2
Lutein, or marigold extract, is a rising star in botanical substances, increasingly recognized for its benefits. As a potent antioxidant, it helps reduce the risks of cancer and heart disease while also playing a critical role in eye protection. Lutein is a vital carotenoid found in the eye. A recent study published in Ophthalmology highlights that lutein-rich foods can prevent and treat cataracts, as well as shield the eyes from age-related macular degeneration.
