Product insights

  • This formula combines vitamin A with a blend of carotenoids, including lutein, zeaxanthin, and astaxanthin, to support overall health, particularly for individuals with BCMO1 gene variations that may limit the conversion of beta-carotene to active vitamin A.
  • Vitamin A acetate provides a direct source of retinol, bypassing the need for carotenoid conversion and ensuring adequate vitamin A levels for cellular and immune function.
  • Lutein and zeaxanthin are key carotenoids found in the macular pigment of the eye, supporting the integrity and density of this pigment and promoting optical lens health.
  • Astaxanthin offers antioxidant support, protecting retinal health by neutralizing free radicals and supporting the eye's natural defenses.

The research

3 cited studies
1.
Lutein and zeaxanthin supplementation and macular pigment optical density

Research indicates that lutein and zeaxanthin supplementation can increase macular pigment optical density, which is associated with improved visual function and reduced risk of age-related macular degeneration.

2.
Astaxanthin and retinal health

Studies suggest that astaxanthin's antioxidant properties may protect retinal cells from oxidative stress, supporting overall retinal health and visual acuity.

3.
Vitamin A and immune function

Research demonstrates that vitamin A plays a crucial role in supporting immune function by promoting the development and function of immune cells.
