LUTEIN – FOR A SHARP EYE

Lutein is a vital nutrient that is particularly important for the eye. It is found in large quantities in the macula – the area of sharpest vision. Metabolism is particularly intense here, producing many waste products – including free radicals. Lutein offers the sensitive structures in the macula dual protection: As an antioxidant, it neutralizes harmful free radicals, thus preventing oxidative stress and protecting the retina. Lutein is also able to absorb UV radiation from sunlight, thus protecting the eye from damage.

IN THE LONG TERM: LUTEIN

Lutein supports healthy eye metabolism. With increasing age, the lutein content of the eye decreases. Medicom's targeted lutein supplement for the eye is complemented by vitamin E, as vitamin E also neutralizes free radicals and supports lutein in its function.

Vital substances for the eyes

Lutein capsules from Medicom with the carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin as well as vitamin E to protect cells from the harmful effects of free radicals.

Provide your eyes with optimal nutrients. For many people, the concentration of lutein and zeaxanthin in the eyes can slowly decrease with age. But you can do something about it: With just one Lutein softgel capsule daily, you'll get the amount of these two important carotenoids you need.

Lutein from Medicom contains lutein and zeaxanthin, which are found in particularly high concentrations in the macula lutea of the eye – the area of sharpest vision and highest visual activity. Lutein and zeaxanthin can filter UV rays. Lutein also contains vitamin E, which is an important fat-soluble antioxidant and, together with lutein and zeaxanthin, protects cells from the damaging effects of free radicals. Vision can deteriorate with age, so taking lutein is recommended as a preventative measure.

GOOD TO KNOW

The carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin cannot be produced by the body itself; therefore, they must be obtained through food. Vitamin E protects these carotenoids from oxidation.

Protection from within

Your eyes are your window to the visible world. As natural as the gift of sight may seem, it depends on several factors that aren't so obvious. The center of your vision is the so-called macula lutea in the center of the retina. This is where the distribution of color-sensitive sensory cells is most dense. This is also where the highest concentration of lutein and zeaxanthin in your body exists. These two substances can filter UV rays and protect your eyes from other unwanted influences.

The plus of lutein and vitamin E for the eyes

As people age, the concentration of lutein and zeaxanthin decreases in many people, so additional intake makes sense. In addition, an unhealthy lifestyle, stress and illness can increase the number of free radicals in your body - molecules that steal electrons from other molecules and thus throw your cells out of balance. As a preventative measure, we recommend the carotenoids lutein, zeaxanthin and vitamin E to protect cells, including the eyes, from free radicals. So that you can keep your eyesight clear in the future.

What do secondary plant substances have to do with the eyes?

Plant substances, Secondary plant substances are valuable natural substances. They include carotenoids, for example. Carotenoids form a large class of naturally occurring fat-soluble pigments (from the Latin pigmentum “color, dye”). They are found in the chromoplasts of plant organisms and give many plants and fruits their color. Carotenoids can also be found in animals whose diet includes pigment-containing plant parts. Humans also absorb carotenoids through their diet. The following carotenoids play a special role in our organism: α-carotene, β-carotene, lycopene, lutein and zeaxanthin. The latter two are found in high concentrations in the human eye. The point of so-called “sharp vision” has long been referred to by doctors as the yellow spot or macula lutea. The name comes from the fact that the spot appears yellow under the microscope. However, it was not until the 1980s that it was conclusively determined that this yellowing was caused by an increased accumulation of zeaxanthin and lutein in an area of only one millimeter.

What exactly is lutein?

Lutein (from the Latin luteus "yellow") is a xanthophyll (from the ancient Greek xanthós "yellow" and phyllon "leaf"), i.e. a pigment from the photosynthetically active cells of plants. In nature it is always accompanied by zeaxanthin. In humans, lutein is found in large quantities within the eye in the so-called macula - the area of sharpest vision. Here, a particularly intensive metabolism takes place, in which many breakdown products are produced - including free radicals. Lutein offers the sensitive structures in the macula double protection: As an antioxidant, it neutralizes harmful free radicals, thus preventing oxidative stress and protecting the retina. Lutein is also able to absorb UV radiation from sunlight and thus protects the eye from damage. With increasing age, the lutein content of the eye decreases. Lutein cannot be produced in the body and must therefore be supplied.

What exactly is zeaxanthin?

Zeaxanthin is a xanthophyll (from the ancient Greek xanthós "yellow" and phyllon "leaf"), a pigment found in the photosynthetic cells of plants. Zeaxanthin plays an important role in converting light into heat, preventing damage to the plant from high levels of radiation. Zeaxanthin, along with lutein, also occurs as a pigment in the human retina, particularly in the macula. This secondary plant substance acts as a filter to protect the eye from excessive light exposure.

What makes lutein so special?

In younger years, normal eye metabolism is often taken for granted. However, with increasing age, the lutein content of the eye decreases. Even if one of the following applies, supplementing with lutein might be beneficial for you:
•You eat little (green) vegetables?
•Are your eyes often exposed to strong UV radiation?
•Do you already have problems with your eyes?
Health and well-being are not to be taken for granted. Your body is constantly working to stay fit and defend itself against harmful invaders. Free radicals are one such example. These are oxygen-containing molecules whose chemical structure is missing an electron. Free radicals therefore search for a suitable electron and attack intact molecules, essentially stealing them. Initially, this electron theft, known as oxidation, is something quite common. However, if the number of free radicals exceeds a certain level, the body experiences oxidative stress. Persistent stress promotes a wide range of complaints and illnesses and reduces your performance.

How long should I take lutein?

You can take lutein at the recommended dose on a permanent basis.
