Summary
This scientific review article focuses on the carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin, specifically their role in preventing age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and other neurodegenerative diseases. The authors highlight the crucial importance of these pigments, found in foods like kale and spinach, in protecting the eyes from oxidative stress and free radicals. They discuss the accumulation of lutein and zeaxanthin in the macula of the eye and their ability to delay the progression of AMD and cataracts. The paper emphasizes the need for adequate intake of these carotenoids through dietary sources and recommends consuming xanthophyll-rich foods.
