About Dr. Wozny
 


A ground-breaking major study in 2001 involving macular degeneration vitamins was sponsored by the National Eye Institute - The Age Related Eye Disease Study (AREDS).


This important research proved, for the first time ever and beyond a shadow of a doubt, that supplements containing high levels of nutrients slowed and possibly even prevented the progression of macular degeneration.


But now there is new research showing that not only can vision be saved, vision can actually improve by adding additional nutrients to the AREDS Formulation.  The Lutein Antioxidant Supplementation Trial (LAST) demonstrated visual improvement in patients taking specific high-dose supplements that include lutein and zeaxanthin.  Some vitamin supplements list the amount of zeaxanthin in micrograms, or mcg.  But this is only 1/1000th the amount of zeaxanthin found in high quality formulas!


AGE-RELATED-MACULAR-DEGENERATION ("ARMD") Is A Major Public Health Catastrophe That Must Be RECOGNIZED And MANAGED Properly!



BLINDNESS is our SECOND HIGHEST FEAR (cancer being 1st).


MILLIONS of people are losing their eyesight, going BLIND, through macular degeneration, a degenerative eye disease, associated with aging, genetics, poor nutrition, and lifestyle choices (cigarettes and excess alcohol consumption).


NUTRITION PLAYS A VERY STRONG ROLE IN THE HEALTH OF OUR EYES!  There is strong evidence that the dietary use of LUTEIN and ZEAXANTHIN will help many people.  We invite all to consider the possible benefits of these NUTRITIONAL DIETARY SUPPLEMENTS that do NOT require a Rx.  If we do not attempt "improvement" or "prevention", what is the ultimate outcome?  Essentially, "blindness"...


Macular Degeneration is the number one cause of blindness in our aging population.  Almost 16 million Americans currently suffer from this retinal disorder that obscures central vision.  Approximately 25% of people over age 65 have some manifestation of Age Related Macular Degeneration (ARMD). Lutein and Zeaxanthin were identified in 1995 as the only two carotenoid antioxidants specific to lens and macula health.  Selectively accumulated from plasma and deposited in the lens and macula, Lutein and Zeaxanthin filter light and serve as potent free radical scavengers.  The macular pigment, composed of Lutein and Zeaxanthin, functions as a color filter to protect the light-sensitive photoreceptor cells (responsible for visual acuity) from ultraviolet- light-originated free radical damage.  Studies in 1997 revealed a 30% reduced macular pigment density in eyes with ARMD, found a correlation between reduced macular pigment density and increased lens density (cataracts) in seniors, and demonstrated that macular pigment density can be increased with dietary and/or supplemental lutein.  Maintaining sufficient levels of lutein & zeaxanthin, (the only carotenoid antioxidants active in the retina) can prevent ARMD and cataracts and preserve youthful visual sensitivity.

20MG LUTEIN

60 capsules






What does Lutein do?


Lutein is an antioxidant carotenoid that occurs in nature with zeaxanthin, a closely related carotenoid. Lutein and zeaxanthin concentrate in the eye’s macula and lens, as well as in the skin, breast and cervical tissues.* Both lutein and zeaxanthin protect the macula from degradation normally associated with aging and oxidative stress.* The macula is responsible for focus and color differentiation. Lutein and zeaxanthin are found in dark green, leafy vegetables. While the average American intake of lutein is only 2 mg per day, other population groups consume up to 20 to 25 mg per day.*


Jarrow FORMULAS® Lutein is extracted from marigold petals. Each softgel contains 20 mg elemental lutein from 40 mg lutein esters,which are naturally occurring, more stable and are well absorbed.


Suggested Usage 


Take 1 softgel per day with food, or as directed by your qualified health care consultant.


Other Ingredients:  Soybean oil, beeswax and gamma tocopherol. Softgel consists of gelatin, glycerin and water.  No wheat, no gluten, no dairy, no egg, no fish/shellfish, no peanuts/tree nuts.
