What Is MacuGuard Ocular Support with Saffron?
MacuGuardĀ® Ocular Support with SaffronĀ provides important nutrients that help protect the eyeās delicate photoreceptor cells, promote macular and retinal health, and help support healthy night vision.
The nutrients our eyes need are often hard to come by, but itās worth making sure we get enough of them to keep our eyes healthy over time.
What are the health benefits of Saffron?
Saffron is a kind of spice. Saffron extracts have been used to promote feelings of satiety and to promote visual acuity and eye health.
Carotenoids: Eye-friendly Nutrients
Carotenoids are a class of phytonutrients (plant chemicals) that are obtained from diet or supplements. Eating foods or taking supplements that contain carotenoids can offer a wide range of health benefits. For instance: the carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin are the main pigments in the macular portion of the eyeās retina. Lutein and zeaxanthin protect your eye against light and free radical-induced damage.
Why Should I Supplement With MacuGuardĀ® Ocular Support with Saffron?
"The nutrients our eyes need are hard to come by, and studies show that our bodies sometimes lose the ability to produce them as we age. With MacuGuardĀ® Ocular Support with Saffron, you'll get all the nutrients you need to protect your eyes from oxidative stress. It also includes C3G, a cutting-edge berry flavonoid compound that helps support nighttime vision.
"We also have a version of MacuGuardĀ® that adds astaxanthin. This helps support your vascular health within the eye and helps fight eye fatigue."
The carotenoidsĀ luteinĀ andĀ zeaxanthinĀ are the main components of yourĀ macular pigment, and help protect the eyes from the effects of excess blue and ultraviolet light.
Lutein & Zeaxanthin: vital for healthy vision
That's why this formula containsĀ luteinĀ andĀ trans-zeaxanthinĀ andĀ meso-zeaxanthin, as well as alpha-carotene, another eye health carotenoid that has been associated with protection of the macula and retina.Ā Lutein and the two types of zeaxanthin are very well-known to help preserve the health of the macula and act as defenders against excessive oxidative stress. They help keep eyes functioning well, even over time.
Phospholipids for carotenoids: optimal absorption
Getting these eye-healthy nutrients where you need them most is aĀ hugeĀ part of supporting your vision health. This formula containsĀ phospholipids, which are an integral part of every cell membrane in the body. This helps promote absorption of lutein and zeaxanthin. Good absorption is crucial for these nutrients to make it into the retina of the eye.
Nutrition for night vision: C3G berry flavonoids
MacuGuardĀ® Ocular Support with SaffronĀ also contains an anthocyanin flavonoid extracted from European black currant berry.Ā Cyanidin-3-glucosideĀ encourages the regeneration ofĀ rhodopsin, a retinal compound that converts visible light to the electrical signals that reach the visual centers of the brain, especially in low-light conditions.Ā Rhodopsin needs to be continually regenerated, but science believes that as we age this happens less and less.Ā Cyanidin-3-glucoside may help older eyes see better at night.
Vision-enhancing benefits of saffron
This formula also includes saffron extract. Multiple clinical studies have shown that supplementation with 20 mg of saffron helps support vision and retinal function, as measured both by advanced technical testing and on the Snellen eye chart that is commonly used by doctors to test vision.
