Our Macular Support Formula‡ supplement is a combination of antioxidants and botanicals designed to protect and support the macula, the central area of the retina responsible for sharp vision. Since the macula is extremely susceptible to free radicals, current research emphasizes the importance of antioxidant supplementation in maintaining and improving macular health. This antioxidant formula helps protect and promote eye health.‡ The formula includes NAC (N-acetyl-l-cysteine), which helps to make glutathione—one of the natural antioxidants found in retinal tissues. NAC has been shown to protect against oxidative damage to the lens and to support healthy glutathione levels. Bilberry, containing anthocyanidins, contains antioxidant pigments that may help moderate visual fatigue and improve light to dark adjustments. Combined with these cofactors, grape seed extract helps provide antioxidant balance in the retina. This formula is also enhanced with lutein and zeaxanthin, the two major carotenoid pigments stored in the macula, the central part of the retina responsible for sharp vision. Lutein and zeaxanthin promote the integrity and density of the macular pigment, as well as help maintain the health of the optical lens. The antioxidant activity of carotenoids and vitamin C provide optimal macular protection and ocular health.‡
