Description
MacuShield Gold combines the three macular carotenoids: Meso-Zeaxanthin, Lutein and Zeaxanthin. Scientific research shows that these three nutrients are found at the back of the eye, at the macula, where they form the macular pigment (yellow colour). Meso-Zeaxanthin is particularly concentrated at the centre of this pigment.
The macula is a specialised part of the eye, responsible for our detailed, central vision. Lutein and Zeaxanthin can be found in fruits and vegetables and Meso-Zeaxanthin is present in some species of fish and seafood. The macular pigments in Macushield are obtained from marigolds (Tagetus Erecta), specifically grown for this purpose.
