Astaxanthin is a carotenoid with strong antioxidant activity.
Though it is not stored up in the macula, it circulates in the blood like lycopene, providing a protective filter in the pre-retinal circulation.
Macular Wellness formulas allow you to take a different carotenoid at each meal to support absorption.
The carotenoids compete for absorption, so avoid supplementing Beta Carotene at the same meal.
Also, avoid supplements with stearates or stearic acid listed as 'Other Ingredients.'
