What is Doctor's Best Lutein with Lutemax? Doctor's Best Lutein supports healthy visual function, maintains macular pigment density, and supports cognitive acuity. Doctor's Best Lutein with Lutemax provides lutein, zeaxanthin, and meso-zeaxanthin, three carotenoid nutrients with clinically proven benefits for vision and eye health. It provides a highly bioavailable, natural source of lutein and zeaxanthin esters. Lutein, zeaxanthin, and meso-zeaxanthin are the three major carotenoids found in humans, and they are highly concentrated in the human retina. Lutein is the major carotenoid found in human blood, and its concentration is high in the human retina. Lutein, zeaxanthin, and meso-zeaxanthin work synergistically to promote eye health. Lutein, zeaxanthin, and meso-zeaxanthin are also potent free radical scavengers that contribute to the body’s antioxidant defenses. How do they work? Most of the beneficial effects of xanthophylls such as lutein, zeaxanthin, and meso-zeaxanthin are attributed to their ability to inhibit reactive oxygen species and scavenge other free radical species that are either derived from the environment or generated internally during natural metabolic processes. There is evidence that lutein’s free radical scavenging activity is being investigated in studies of its effects on human lens epithelial cells. In one such study, cell cultures were exposed to ultraviolet (UV) light after pretreatment with lutein or alpha-tocopherol. Both supplements were found to reduce UV-induced damage to lens epithelial cells. However, lutein was shown to have significantly greater photoprotective activity than alpha-tocopherol, demonstrating its potential as a potent antioxidant. Lutein has also been shown to be an effective “blue light” filter, another daily source of oxidative stress to the polyunsaturated fatty acid-rich photoreceptors in our eyes. Why should I take Doctor’s Best Lutein with Lutemax? Lutein, zeaxanthin, and meso-zeaxanthin are pigments that belong to a class of carotenoids called xanthophylls. Since the human body does not synthesize them, we rely on dietary sources for these carotenoids. The average American consumes only 2 mg of lutein and zeaxanthin per day. The best sources of these important nutrients are dark green leafy vegetables such as spinach, collard greens, and kale, as well as certain yellow-orange fruits and vegetables. Lutein, zeaxanthin, and meso-zeaxanthin are called “macular pigments” because they are the only carotenoids found in the lens and macular region of the human eye. Lutein, zeaxanthin, and meso-zeaxanthin are three of the most abundant carotenoids in our blood and various body tissues; their levels are largely determined by our diet. Lutemax 2020 is the highest quality lutein with increased levels of zeaxanthin isomers. Doctor's Best has further enhanced this formula by adding meso-zeaxanthin, providing a complete eye health supplement. Supplementing Doctor's Best Lutein with Lutemax and meso-zeaxanthin may help maintain healthy vision.
