Effectiveness
How Vitamin A Palmitate Affects PatientsLutein is a nutrient that is naturally concentrated in a small part of the eye called the macula, which is responsible for central vision. It is believed that lutein can help protect this area from damage caused by high-energy light and oxidative stress. Studies have shown that increasing the amount of lutein in the macula can reduce the risk for eye diseases like Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD).
How Vitamin A Palmitate works in the bodyXanthophylls, such as lutein and zeaxanthin, have strong antioxidant properties. These carotenoids help protect the body from phototoxic blue light and near-ultraviolet radiation from the macula. Lutein is more stable than other carotenoids like beta-carotene and lycopene, making it a particularly good antioxidant. Zeaxanthin is even more effective at shielding the body from radiation. Lutein is also present in the lens, and may help protect against age-related increases in lens density and cataract formation. Carotenoids can also help
