Description
Lot number & expiration date are printed on bottle inside of this package. EASY TO SWALLOW Actual Size **The primary carotenoids proven to be in the retina and lens of the eye. This unique delayed-release formula allows the ingredients to dissolve gradually, thereby contributing to greater absorption by the body. Alcon is involved in research studying the positive effects of antioxidants and carotenoids on healthy vision. Caution: Tablet not to be broken before consumption. Lutein and Zeaxanthin are natural carotenoids that have been shown through structural and clinical studies to be concentrated in the macular segment of the retina. These carotenoids are not produced by the human body, and their accumulation in the eye is dependent on dietary intake. Studies suggest a relationship between these two carotenoids and the maintenance of a normal health macula and clarity of the lens of the eye.1 Zinc is an important mineral found in high concentrations in healthy eyes. Zinc acetate has been proven to be the form of zinc with greatest absorption by the body.2 1Bone RA, Landrum JT, Tarsis SL. Vision Res 25:1531-1535 (1985).
