Lutein, also known as “plant lutein”, coexists with zeaxanthin in nature. Lutein and zeaxanthin are the main components of plant pigments such as corn, vegetables, fruits, and flowers, and are also the main pigments that constitute the macula area of ​​the human retina. In nature, lutein is highest in dark green leafy vegetables such as cabbage, kale, and spinach, as well as flowers such as marigolds and marigolds. The human eye contains high amounts of lutein and zeaxanthin, but these two elements cannot be produced by the human body and must be supplemented by foods containing lutein and zeaxanthin.
