Jarrow FORMULAS® Blackcurrant + Lutein is a powerful formula for reducing eye fatigue and promoting eye function.
New Zealand Blackcurrants are among the most antioxidant- rich berries, due to the high content of polyphenol pigments (anthocyanosides) that lend the berries their rich purple color Blackcurrants are particularly noted for their protective effects on eye health, eye discomfort, and visual fatigue. Lutein and zeaxanthin, antioxidant carotenoids found in dark green, leafy vegetables, are important components of the macular pigment in the eye. The macula is responsible for focus and color differentiation, and the macular pigment protects the eyes from ultraviolet radiation and oxidative stress.
Lutein is an antioxidant in the carotenoid family (a group of naturally occurring fat-soluble pigments found in plants). Lutein is the primary carotenoid present in the central area of the retina called the macula.
While a deficiency has not been identified, people who eat more lutein-containing foods appear to be at lower risk of macular degeneration. One study found that adults with the highest dietary intake of lutein had a 57% decreased risk of macular degeneration compared with those people with the lowest intake, and of the carotenoids, lutein and zeaxanthin are most strongly associated with this protection. In a preliminary study, a similar link was suggested between low dietary lutein and increased risk of cataracts.
