MacuShield Original CHEWABLE *Veg* For Eye Health Bilberry Flavoured - 30 Day Pack

Macushield Original Chewable contains 3 dietary compounds; lutein, zeaxanthin and meso-zeaxanthin, collectively known as the macular pigments, in addition to vitamin B2 (riboflavin). Macular pigment is yellow in colour and therefore absorbs damaging blue light.

Lutein and zeaxanthin are dietary carotenoids that filter damaging high-energy blue wavelength light from the visible-light spectrum by as much as 90%. Lutein and zeaxanthin are antioxidants and therefore protect against the damage caused by free radicals.

Meso-zeaxanthin is the 3rd component of the macular pigment and is only found at the centre where vision is sharpest. Meso-zeaxanthin is obtained by the conversion of lutein to meso-zeaxanthin in the macula. It is not found in a typical diet. Meso-zeaxanthin is being recognised as a more powerful neutraliser of free radicals than either lutein or zeaxanthin.

Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) helps maintain normal vision.
