    • Is it good to take NOW Foods Lutein every day?

Lutein is an antioxidant that accumulates in the retina, potentially protecting against age-related macular degeneration and other eye conditions. Regular intake may help maintain optimal levels in the body, supporting long-term eye health. However, as with any supplement, it's important to follow recommended dosages.

    • Does NOW Foods Lutein affect the heart?

      While NOW Foods, Lutein is primarily known for its benefits to eye health, some research suggests it may have positive effects on heart health as well. Lutein's antioxidant properties may help reduce inflammation and oxidative stress in the body, potentially contributing to improved cardiovascular health. However, more research is needed to fully understand its direct impact on heart function.

    • Can lutein raise blood sugar?

      There is no evidence to suggest that lutein directly raises blood sugar levels. In fact, some studies indicate that lutein may have a positive effect on glucose metabolism.
