MacuCap®LMZ contains 3 macular carotenoids + zinc + vitamin B2. It is geared towards the need for special micronutrients in the eyes and is intended to help you supplement your diet appropriately so that you can meet the special needs of your eyes in the best possible way. Zinc and vitamin B2 help maintain normal eyesight.
The macula lutea (also yellow spot) of the eye contains the three carotenoids as they are combined in MacuCap®LMZ: meso-zeaxanthin, lutein and zeaxanthin. These three carotenoids form the macular pigment.
The macular pigment acts as a blue light filter and antioxidant at the exact point of the retina that has the highest concentration of rods and cones (light receptors). It protects the eye from high-energy blue light, which occurs in natural sunlight as well as in lamps and LEDs. This filter property also contributes to visual functionality, particularly in contrast and glare vision. Macular carotenoids also neutralise free radicals that damage the cells of the eye.
Recommended dosage: Swallow 1 capsule daily (preferably with a meal) with liquid without chewing.
