Lutein & Zeaxanthin

Since 1966, our partner in Mexico has been a leader in the research, development and production of highly bioavailable carotenoids from Marigold.

Our carotenoids are produced under the strictest standards and Current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP) from the optimization of seeds and plants, to cultivation methods, fertilization and manual harvesting of flowers. These processes are followed by a gentle dehydration. Then, meals that contain oleoresins are saponified and isomerized, followed by stabilization and standardization. The final products are packaged and distributed.

Please reach out to our teams if you would like to gain access to the published clinical studies linked to vision health and cognitive health.
