Healthy vision is a crucial part of ensuring the quality of life as we age. MacuGuard™ Ocular Support with Astaxanthin combines ingredients that have been shown to protect eye health in an absorption-enhanced formula. (1-3)
Essential for healthy eyes: Cartenoids
The nutrients our eyes need are often hard to obtain in sufficient quantities from food alone. For instance: carotenoid nutrients found in vegetables such as lutein and specific forms of zeaxanthin make up our macular pigment which is essential to healthy eyesight.
This part of the retina protects underlying lightsensing cells from damage by excess blue and ultraviolet light. Unfortunately, the density of the macular pigment naturally declines with age, and some of us lose the ability to produce meso-zeaxanthin from lutein over time.
That’s why MacuGuard™ Ocular Support with Astaxanthin contains lutein as well as trans-zeaxanthin and meso-zeaxanthin. (4)
Lutein and the two types of zeaxanthin are very well-known to help preserve the health of the macula and act as defenders against excessive oxidative stress. They help keep eyes functioning well, even over time, including night vision. (3,5,6)
In addition, alpha-carotene has been added based on new evidence that it helps support the macular pigment.
Fighting eye fatigue: Astaxanthin
The potent antioxidant astaxanthin that crosses the blood-eye barrier has been shown to counteract free radical damage, support vascular health within the eyes and may play a protective role against eye fatigue.
Japanese scientists have clinically studied astaxanthin. They’ve demonstrated that 6 mg of astaxanthin supplementation daily helped promote visual sharpness and eye health. (7)
Vision-boosting benefits: Saffron
This formula also features saffron extract. Multiple studies showed that individuals with age-related vision concerns, experience improved visual acuity (sharp vision) supplementing with saffron. (8-10)
Optimal absorption: Phospholipids for carotenoids
Getting these eye-healthy nutrients where you need them most is a huge part of supporting your vision health. This formula contains phospholipids, which are an important part of every cell membrane in the body.
This can help promote absorption and accumulation of lutein and zeaxanthin. Good absorption is crucial for these nutrients to make it into the retina of the eye. (3)
Make this innovative formula a part of your nutritional regimen – and help safeguard your eyes for years to come!
