The lutein from FloraGLO supports skin health and helps prevent aging of the skin. It supplies high quality FloraGLO Lutein, a highly bioavailable, natural source of lutein. Lutein and zeaxanthin are two of the major carotenoids found in humans, and are highly concentrated in the retina of the human eye.

In vitro evidence for the free radical scavenging activity of lutein is found 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 nutrients were found to reduce UV-induced damage to lens epithelial cells. However, lutein was shown to have significantly higher photoprotective activity than alpha-tocopherol, demonstrating its potential as a high-powered antioxidant.

The best sources for these important nutrients are dark leafy-greens like spinach, collards, and kale, in addition to certain yellow-orange fruits \u0026amp; vegetables.
