We recommend Maxivision Lutein Formula

 Maxivision

Each capsule of Maxivision Lutein formula contains 10mg of elemental lutein (200mg of FloraGLO Lutein), 514 mcg of elemental zeaxanthin, and 400 mcg of elemental cryptoxanthin.  This product can be used by itself or with other products.

Lutein has been shown to be fundamentally involved in macular degenerative disease.  Studies range from 6mg per day for prevention and maintenance to 20 mg per day for therapeutic use.  Nutritional studies show the average person only consumes about 1.5 mg of lutein per day.  Since the human body cannot produce lutein, the accumulation in the eyes is dependent upon the dietary intake from food or supplements.
