Lutein
and Zeaxanthin (MAX) are likely the most important
of these Antioxidants. Lutein and Zeaxanthin are specifically
found in the macular area that help with maintaining macular
health and function. The recommended dose by the United Nations,
World Health Organization, Food and Agriculture Organization
for both Lutein or Zeaxanthin is up to 2 mg per Kg per day,
which is around 100 mg or more of Lutein per day. Report
on dose recommendation. Also the same institutions have
given Lutein and Zeaxanthin the safest rating of 100. This
means that the recommended dose is extremely safe and better
if used at higher doses for macular degeneration treatment. Link

degeneration treatment. The Lutein added to the MDS AREDS formula has more
Lutein than most other products and it should provide more protection for your
eyes. The AREDS 1 study is the first study by National Institute of Health

Vitamin E 400 IU, Zinc 15 mg, Copper 1 mg. The Zinc dose has been modified to reduce

only. This Formula also has added Lutein 25mg, Zeaxanthin

AREDS 2 Formula
contains the vitamins used from the AREDS two study which
is based on Antioxidant effects of Omega three oils, Lutein
and Zeaxanthin, and a reduction of Zinc dose for it’s
side effects. Omega three oils (DHA+EPA) are essential fatty
acids, which means our body does not synthesize them and they
must be consumed through our diet (fish) and supplements. Omega
three oils (not Omega six oils) have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory
benefits for the Macular area to slow damage. The Omega three
oils in AREDS2 formula are Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) 350mg
and Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA)650 mg, plus Lutein 10 mg and
