How Macu-Support Works
Macu-Support is from the Douglas Labs Vision product line.
The ocular lens, macula and retina are continually exposed to oxygen. Both light and oxygen can create free radicals that damage the membranes of visual cells. Adequate antioxidant intake is essential in supporting the macula, and recent studies have shown the critical protective role that nutritional supplements play in supporting normal vision and eye protection.
The normal ocular lens is rich in the antioxidant vitamins C and E, which scavenge oxygen and light, induced free radicals. High levels of vitamins C and E, and other natural antioxidant defense systems appear to be necessary for complete protection of the delicate, highly transparent lens crystalline proteins.
Zinc is an essential mineral for normal visual signal transduction in the retina, an essential cofactor of superoxide dismutase (SOD) , an antioxidant enzyme that removes potentially dangerous superoxide radicals in the visual cells, the lens, and other tissues.
Lutein and zeaxanthin are nutritionally important carotenoids that occur in selected, often brightly colored vegetables, such as spinach, kale, and corn.
These specific carotenoids are efficient quenchers of free radicals in the body, and research has shown that they are the predominant pigments found in the macula.
