Mesozeaxanthin and Preserving Vision for those with Macular Degeneration
Many research studies show the value of supplementing with lutein and zeaxanthin in helping to preserve vision for those with macular degeneration. Additional studies show mesozeaxanthin (a member of the lutein family), as an essential nutrient for helping preserve vision for those with macular degeneration, used in the eyes as an antioxidant in the center of the macular where our detailed vision comes from.
The referenced study is one of 3 completed to date demonstrating the value of supplementing with this mesozeaxanthin.
