Ingredients explained
Lutein
Lutein concentrates in the macular region of the retina where it filters high-energy blue light and acts as an antioxidant to help protect photoreceptor cells from oxidative stress.
Caution: Take with food for better absorption since lutein is fat soluble; consult a healthcare provider if pregnant, nursing, or using medications.
Anthocyanins (from Bilberry extract, Vaccinium myrtillus fruit, standardized to 25%)
Anthocyanins provide antioxidant activity in ocular tissues and may help support healthy blood flow to the retina.
Caution: May cause mild digestive upset in some people; stop use if unusual symptoms occur and consult a healthcare provider if pregnant, nursing, or on medications.
How they work together
Lutein primarily supports the macula by filtering blue light and providing local antioxidant protection, while bilberry anthocyanins offer systemic antioxidant activity and may support microcirculation to the retina. Together they address light filtration and oxidative stress from complementary angles.
