Intro
Xanthophyll, also known as marigold extract, is one of the brightest hopes in the field of botanical substances and is now gaining popularity.

Not only is it an antioxidant that inhibits the risk of cancer and heart disease, but it also plays an important role in protecting the eyes.

It is also an important carotenoid present in the eye.

Xanthophyll is A carotenoid, a photosynthetic pigment, which is widely found in vegetables (such as spinach, cabbage, broccoli, etc.), flowers, fruits and other plants.

It can transfer absorbed light energy to chlorophyll A in a special state of for its conversion of light energy, and has the effect of protecting chlorophyll.

The pure product is a ridged yellow crystal, metallic luster, unstable to light and hydrogen, insoluble in water, easily soluble in fat and fatty solvents.

Protect vision:
Xanthophyll has an important protective effect on the macula in the retina, and its deficiency can easily lead to macular degeneration and blurred vision.

Then appear vision degradation, myopia and other symptoms.

Lutein is a precursor of NA that can be converted into VA in the human body.

The main physiological function of lutein on the eye is as an antioxidant and photoprotective.

The optic nerve is non-regenerative and is easily damaged by harmful free radicals.

The antioxidant effect of lutein can inhibit the formation of harmful free radicals.

Lutein (Marigold extract) can absorb a lot of blue light.

And the wavelength of blue visible light is close to ultraviolet light, which is the most potentially harmful light that can reach the retina.

Light passes through the highest concentrations of lutein before reaching sensitive cells in the retina, and an abundance of lutein in the macula minimizes this damage.
