Keeping a clear view: just 1 capsule a day takes good care of the eyes

The eyes are our window on the world. We perceive 80% of all information via the eyes. A reduction in eyesight can have a considerable impact on our quality of life. But it is not just normal old age but also computer work and intensive smartphone usage that can take a heavy toll on our eyesight.

So the lutein capsules from Unimedica combine ingredients that comprehensively provide the eyes with nutrients, so contributing to the maintenance of normal eyesight. These nutrients include lutein and zeaxanthin supplemented principally by the “eye vitamins” riboflavin (vitamin B2) and retinol (vitamin A) as well as beta-carotene (provitamin A).

The “eye vitamins” contribute to eye protection and the maintenance of normal eyesight

Lutein and zeaxanthin are secondary plant substances belonging to the carotenoids. Both substances accumulate in the macula, a yellow spot on the retina of the eye. The macular pigment derived from these two elements appears yellow and protects the eyes from damaging wavelengths of light.

Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) is concentrated in the cornea and lens of the eye. There it contributes to the maintenance of normal eyesight and normal mucous membranes, which especially helps protect the lens.

Beta-carotene is the most important precursor of vitamin A (retinol). It is therefore also called provitamin A and helps ensure high bioavailability of vitamin A, since it to some extent provides replenishment.

Vitamin A (retinol) contributes to the maintenance of normal eyesight. It has special significance for light-dark vision and supports the immune system.
