The eye is a highly complex organ that must safely harvest, control, focus, and react to light to produce vision. With age the eye accumulates greater photo-oxidative damage from its interaction with light. Reseach has shown that maintaining optimal vision is now possible with nutrional supplementation, diet and other lifestyle changes.

In particular the carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin are naturally found in the macular region of the eye.  Lutein and zeaxanthin help shield the eye from damaging sunrays.  With advancing age these precious carotenoids decline in the eye.The result is a reduction (shrinkage) of the macular pigment in the eye.

Certain foods are rich in these two important substances.  Fruits and vegetables with a yellow hue such as corn, peaches, mangoes and persimmons contain zeaxanthin. Lutein can be found in vegetables such as spinach, kale, broccoli and greens. For those who don't eat enough of these Super Zeaxanthin with Lutein may provide additional protection against age-related eye disorders.
