Doctor’s Best – Lutein with FloraGLO
What is Doctor’s Best Lutein with FloraGLO?
Doctor’s Best Lutein with FloraGLO with Zeaxanthin maintains healthy visual function and supports macular pigment density. 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. Lutein and zeaxanthin are also potent free radical neutralizers that likely contribute to the body’s spectrum of antioxidant defenses.
How does it work?
Most of the beneficial effects of xanthophylls, which are photochemical transformations of lutein, are ascribed to their ability to quench reactive oxygen species and scavenge other free radical substances that are either taken in from the environment or generated internally by natural metabolic processes. 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. Lutein has also been found to be an effective filter of “blue light,” another daily source of oxidative stress on the polyunsaturated fatty acid-enriched photoreceptors of our eyes.
Why should I take Doctor’s Best Lutein with FloraGLO?
Lutein and Zeaxanthin are yellow pigments in a class of carotenoids called xanthophylls. Since the human body does not synthesize them, we rely on dietary sources for these carotenoids. The average American consumes only 2mg of lutein & zeaxanthin per day. The best sources for these important nutrients are dark leafy-greens like spinach, collards, and kale, in addition to certain yellow-orange fruits & vegetables. Lutein, zeaxanthin, and meso-zeaxanthin are referred to as “the macular pigments,” as they are the only carotenoids found in the lens and macular region of the retina of the human eye. Over 20 studies in humans using FloraGLO Lutein, established a body of literature published in peer-reviewed journals or presented as abstracts at scientific conferences that confirms the efficacy and safety of this particular ingredient.

so we have lutein and zea, so that’s good because they seem to work better together and can fight free radicals more effectively when combined. Additionally, they are the only dietary carotenoids that accumulate in the macula region, located at the back of the eye. And thanks to this, they have the ability to protect your eyes from harmful blue light, they reduce oxidative stress markers that damage the eyes, reduce the inflammatory process, protect your skin. To see some effects, you need to take at least 10-20mg daily for at least a month. Please do not take it with foods containing lutein (such as egg yolk as it already contains lutein). I am constantly trying several brands so far and they seem to be doing well. So I guess it’s enough to choose a brand that you can rely on. Cheers

This brand will generally offer wonderful results and improvements. I believe it is necessary to take a few months to see results. So far I feel good and I can take it once in a while while my parents will take it more regularly. Lutein is useful for the eyes and also improves the condition of dry eyes. I’m not sure this helps with computer work because my job involves the computer all the time. Vision is improved a bit but I don’t think it will really make a difference but I feel like I’ve forgotten to add artificial eye fluid sometimes lately which means I don’t feel pretty bad about dry eyes and forgot to notice it. This one has 20mg, so it’s actually great stuff on the side, so hopefully I’ll feel a lot better over time. Thanks for reading.

I bought it as a good quality supplement to keep my eyesight healthy. As a student, I spend a lot of time in front of my computer screen and my lessons. Causing eyestrain from time to time. So I decided to give them a try because I like the brand and the quality supplements they offer. So far I’m really happy! Good size capsules.

We continue to order this Sprite. The capsule size is quite small, easy to swallow. If you have vision problems why not just take it to improve your eyesight.

A highly bioavailable natural source of lutein extracted from marigold flowers, the most abundant source in nature. Lutein is a major carotenoid found in human blood, with high tissue concentration in the retina of the human eye. Lutein is an important natural antioxidant that can help keep your eyes healthy while keeping your skin healthy! Incredible product!

My eyes are needing more nutrients these days and this product is great. It has trademarked ingredients that have been shown to work. I have been using Dr’s Best products and love what I have used so far.

Lutein is one of the two main carotenoids present in the human eye (macula and retina). It is believed to function as a light filter, protecting eye tissue from damage caused by sunlight. Foods rich in lutein include egg yolks, spinach, kale, corn, orange pepper, kiwi fruit, grapes, zucchini, and squash. You can also get lutein from this supplement!

Did a review on this product earlier. Another plus for people who “eat kosher,” is that this product is not made with gelatin.
