JOURNAL ARTICLES:
Dietary Antioxidants and the Long-term Incidence of Age-Related Macular Degeneration The Blue Mountains Eye Study. (Ophthalmology. 2007) "CONCLUSIONS: In this population-based cohort study, higher dietary lutein and zeaxanthin intake reduced the risk of long-term incident AMD. This study confirmed the Age-Related Eye Disease Study finding of protective influences from zinc against AMD. Higher beta-carotene intake was associated with an increased risk of AMD."
Effect of dietary lutein and zeaxanthin on plasma carotenoids and their transport in lipoproteins in age-related macular degeneration. (Am J Clin Nutr. 2007)
[Lutein and antioxidants in the prevention of age-related macular degeneration.] (Ophthalmologe. 2007) “The supplementation of lutein and omega-3 fatty acids is not toxic but a positive effect has not been proven by randomized studies.”
Macular pigment response to a supplement containing meso-zeaxanthin, lutein and zeaxanthin (Nutrition & Metabolism 2007) "The data indicate that a supplement containing predominantly meso-zeaxanthin is generally effective at raising macular pigment density, and may turn out to be a useful addition to the defenses against AMD."
