Low macula pigment density has shown to predispose the individual to Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD), the introduction of Macushield with the vital antioxidant Meso-Zeaxanthin combined with Lutein and Zeaxanthin can slow the onset and in some cases prevent AMD. Macushield is the only supplement to contain these three essential ocular carotenoids (anti-oxidants) and nothing else: • Meso-Zeaxanthin (10mg) • Lutein (10mg) • Zeaxanthin (2mg)
All three carotenoids are formulated in the scientifically recommended quantities. Lutein & Zeaxanthin are found in the diet and the third Meso-Zeaxanthin (MZ) is made by the body (providing the raw material is present in your diet) and not generally found in a Western diet. It is this third ingredient, Meso-Zeaxanthin that is crucial to central macular pigment health. Macushield is recommended as a preventative measure for anyone whose parent/s or siblings have/had AMD. You are particularly at risk of AMD if you smoke and Macushield is almost unique amongst eye supplements in being safe for smokers to take. Macushield has proven to increase macular pigment density in as little as 4 months and there is increasing evidence that vision may actually be improved in AMD patients taking Macushield each day. Macushield is available now in quantities of 30 or 90 tablets. |
