A lot of interest has been generated in the two carotenoids, lutein and zeaxanthin since evidence that increased consumption of both of these, most notably lutein, may help to maintain a healthy vision as we age.
Lutein is a yellow carotenoid that is not made in the body, and so it has to be obtained from the diet or through supplements. Like all carotenoids, lutein is an antioxidant, and since it is found in the macula of the eye, it may protect the macula tissue from harmful oxidation by quenching free radicals. The reason that this is of such importance is that it is the macular that is responsible for detailed vision. Furthermore, lutein has also been shown to filter high-energy blue light that can damage the macula.
