Lutein A

Description:

Lutein A, with the CAS number 127-40-2, is a carotenoid pigment primarily found in green leafy vegetables, fruits, and various plants. It is a yellow to orange pigment that plays a crucial role in photosynthesis by absorbing light energy and protecting plant tissues from oxidative damage. Lutein A is known for its antioxidant properties and is significant in human health, particularly for eye health, as it is a major component of the macula in the retina. This compound is fat-soluble, which means it is best absorbed when consumed with dietary fats. Lutein A is also recognized for its potential benefits in reducing the risk of age-related macular degeneration and cataracts. In addition to its nutritional importance, lutein is used in dietary supplements and food products for its coloring properties and health benefits. Its stability can be affected by light, heat, and oxygen, necessitating careful handling and storage to maintain its efficacy.

Lutein - 10%

CAS: 127-40-2

Lutein - 10% is a dietary carotenoid, which is derived primarily from marigold flowers. It functions through its antioxidant properties, specifically targeting oxidative stress in ocular tissues. This antioxidant activity is crucial for protecting the eyes against damage from free radicals. By absorbing excess light energy, it helps mitigate damage caused by blue and ultraviolet light exposure.
