It is vital that we keep our eyes healthy and vision at its best. Lutein is a carotenoid with anti-inflammatory properties and is one of the key nutrients for eye health, but what is it and how much do we need to keep our eyes healthy?

As mentioned, Lutein is a carotenoid. Carotenoids are a type of phytonutrient responsible for the bright colours of many plants and vegetables, particularly the red, yellow and orange hues of many fruit and veg (yep, that’s why carrots are thought to help you ‘see in the dark’!). Other than zeaxanthin – another carotenoid also essential for eye health – Lutein is the only carotenoid found in the retina, located nearer the back eye which is essential for vision.

So, how much Lutein do you need? This depends on a number of factors, including age and current eye condition.
