Description
"Lutein Extract" is a supplement containing a carotenoid found in leafy greens and marigold flowers, known for its role in visual function. It accumulates in the macula, where it helps filter blue light and maintain retinal integrity. Its antioxidant properties strengthen cellular protection, supporting skin resilience and cardiovascular function. This extract is included in combinations designed for eye health and oxidative balance. Its targeted role in retinal defense makes it a key component in vision-support solutions.
