Lutein, also known as marigold extract, a hopeful in the field of botanical substances, is gaining popularity today. Lutein is not only an antioxidant that inhibits the risk of cancer and heart disease, but it also plays an important role in protecting the eyes. Lutein is an important carotenoid present in the eye. According to reports, lutein-containing foods have been shown to combat cataracts and protect the eyes from age-related macular degenerative diseases.

Function and Application:
1. Lutein has an important protective effect on the macula in the retina, and when it is deficient, it is easy to lead to macular degeneration and blurred vision. When it is deficient, it is easy to cause macular degeneration and blurred vision, which in turn leads to vision deterioration, myopia and other symptoms. Lutein is the precursor of NA, which can be converted to VA in the human body.The main physiological function of lutein to the eye is as an antioxidant and photoprotective effect. The optic nerve is non-renewable and very vulnerable to damage by harmful free radicals, and the antioxidant effect of lutein can inhibit the formation of harmful free radicals. Lutein (marigold extract) can absorb a large amount of blue light. Before reaching the sensitive cells on the retina, the light first passes through the highest aggregation area of lutein, and then if the lutein content at the macula is rich, it can minimize the damage.Lutein powder can be used to make lutein supplement for eyes and lutein gummies for eyes.
2. Lutein has a strong oxidizing effect, can inhibit the activity of reactive oxygen radicals, preventing the destruction of normal cells by reactive oxygen radicals. Experiments have shown that reactive oxygen radicals can react with DNA, proteins, lipids, weakening their physiological functions, which in turn triggers such as cancer, atherosclerosis and other chronic diseases. Lutein can inactivate single-line oxygen through physical or chemical quenching, thus protecting the body from damage and enhancing the body's immune system. Lutein can reduce the incidence of cataracts.
3. Lutein can inhibit the proliferation and differentiation of preadipocytes and play a role in lowering fat.
4. As a natural plant pigment with multiple biological activities, lutein has been widely used in food, medicine and cosmetics.Marigold powder extract can be made into lutein softgels.
