Lutein Protocol
”Hass avocados were found to contain the highest content of Lutein among commonly
eaten fruits as well as measurable amounts of related carotenoids (zeaxanthin, alpha-carotene,
and beta-carotene). Lutein accounted for 70% of the measured carotenoids, and
the avocado also contained significant quantities of vitamin E”. Journal of Nutritional Biochemistry Jan
2005 "According to researchers, the same lutein and zeaxanthin content that enables avocado to protect eye health also inhibits Helicobacter pylori—a bacterium associated with development of stomach cancer.13" Avocados Super-Enhanced Carotenoid Absorption “Epidemiologic studies
suggest an inverse relationship between increased Lutein consumption and
decreased incidence of atherosclerosis (6), possibly colon cancer (7 and macular degeneration (9).” “It has long been thought that
carotenoid intake also reduces the risk of certain forms of cardiovascular
disease, stroke, and cancer.” Kritchevsky “In
the case of skin health, Lutein, zeaxanthin, and other carotenoids appear to be
depleted in the skin under conditions of prolonged UV light exposure. Skin
exposure to UV rays generates reactive oxygen species, inflammation in skin
cells, and erythema .Intake of dietary antioxidants, including Lutein and
zeaxanthin, reduces this inflammatory response, as carotenoids are poor
absorbers of UV light.” Ribaya-Mercado “After adjusting for risk factors,
they found a 57-percent decreased risk for AMD in individuals with the highest
intake of lutein/zeaxanthin (6 mg daily), compared to those who consumed the
lowest level (0.5 mg Daily.” Seddon et
al “Richer demonstrated improvements of up to 92 percent in visual
acuity tests after subjects consumed a diet containing five ounces of spinach
(approximately 14 mg lutein) 4-7 times weekly.” “Supplementation
with lutein an antioxidant and DHA an omega 3 EFA promotes beneficial changes
in the eye that may help prevent AMD.” "You need at least
20 mg of lutein and at least one mg of zeaxanthin to make a difference in your
eye health. And most eye supplements just aren’t potent enough to do you any
good. Pick up some dark, leafy vegetables. Spinach, kale, collards and Swiss
chard will do the trick. They’re full of lutein. Eat whole eggs. The yolk
provides another natural source of lutein. Add some color to your meals. Pick a
few orange peppers, zucchini and squash. Toss in a few kiwi fruit. All contain
zeaxanthin. In fact, the more colorful your food choices, the better your eye
health may be.” Doctor Al Sears MD
"Studies of adults with age-related macular degeneration show that supplementing with 10 to 12 mg of lutein per day raises the density of protective pigmented cells in the retina by up to 175% compared with patients taking placebo.18,19 This means that it enhances the eye’s own ability to protect against damaging blue and ultraviolet light. It is important to note that lower doses, such as 6 mg per day, have proved insufficient to significantly improve pigment density, and have only borderline effects on vision.20 In patients with early age-related macular degeneration, 48 weeks of supplementation with lutein at 10 or 20 mg alone (or at 10 mg in combination with zeaxanthin) produced significant increases in electroretinogram signals. This is a measure of the power of light-sensitive cells to produce electrical impulses after stimulation by light.21 Multiple large clinical studies have now demonstrated that supplementation with lutein and/or zeaxanthin can improve retinal function, increase the ability to see contrasting colors and shapes, and improve visual acuity.19,21-24 " Saffron Improves Vision in Aging Humans "Alpha-carotene is getting a lot of attention as a vision-enhancing, retinal-protecting supplement. Recent studies, however, suggest another intriguing—and potentially ground-breaking—effect of alpha-carotene in the blood: prolonging life. There is now good support for a mechanism by which it could do so. Large-scale studies have shown a significant association between serum levels of the carotenoid alpha-carotene and the risk of dying. In a study of more than 15,000 people, individuals with the highest alpha-carotene levels were 39% less likely to die from all causes compared to those with the lowest levels." Saffron Improves Vision in Aging Humans “A large meta-analysis involving 71 published papers and representing more than 387,000 individuals showed that people with higher lutein intake, or higher blood concentrations of lutein, have a reduced risk of coronary heart disease, stroke, and metabolic syndrome.2 The reason lutein provides such wide-reaching effects is because of its ability to protect tissues from oxidative stress and inflammation—two factors that play a major role in cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. This study will likely change the way we think of lutein, broadening its appeal to everyone who wants to optimally protect their blood vessels, heart, and brain against the ravages of oxidative stress and chronic inflammation. Lutein has long been associated with vision protection, which it provides both by reducing oxidative stresses in the eye and by lowering chronic inflammation that can contribute to cataracts and age-related macular degeneration. oxidative stress and chronic inflammation also contribute to cardiometabolic diseases such as heart disease, stroke, and diabetes.” Newly Discovered Benefits of Lutein Research conducted at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign reveals an association between higher serum levels of the carotenoid lutein and better preservation of crystallized intelligence—the ability to use knowledge and skills acquired over one’s lifetime.* “Previous studies have found that a person’s lutein status is linked to cognitive performance across the lifespan,” Lead Researcher Marta Zamroziewicz. Note want to be thinking clearly enough to REJECT the needle; keep your Lutein high "An article in the Journal of the International Neuropsychological Society reports an association between higher levels of the carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin and better brain efficiency. ... “The observed results suggest that L [lutein] and Z [zeaxanthin] promote cognitive functioning in old age by enhancing neural efficiency,” the authors conclude." Eye Nutrients Linked to Efficient Brains
Lutein is an essential fat-soluble antioxidant
(See
Antioxidant Protocol) carotenoid (See Carotene Protocol)
required by your eyes,
skin (See Skin Protection Protocol) and others. Cooking of lutein/zeaxanthin-containing foods may increase
bioavailability by disrupting the cellular matrix of the carotenoid-protein
complexes. Lutein
and zeaxanthin are powerful antioxidants, and lutein is widely known as the
primary nutrient for protecting ocular function. It has long been thought that
carotenoid intake also reduces the risk of certain forms of cardiovascular
disease, stroke, and cancer. Lutein and zeaxanthin may prevent cellular damage
in these conditions by quenching singlet oxygen or neutralizing
photosensitizers. Lutein and all the
carotenoids are fat soluble so always eat a little good fat (See
Fat Soluble Nutrients Protocol) with them.
"You need at least
20 mg of lutein and at least one mg of zeaxanthin to make a difference in your
eye health. And most eye supplements just aren’t potent enough to do you any

health may be.” Doctor Al Sears MD
Foods high in Lutein always eat with a little good fat"Egg yolks are the richest source of two superstar carotenoids—lutein and zeaxanthin. 1. Not only are bright yellow yolks loaded with these fat-soluble antioxidant nutrients, they are more bioavailable than those found in vegetables, corn and most supplements.2,3 While these nutrients have a reputation of combating macular degeneration4,5 and cataracts6 and supporting overall healthy vision, they have a long list of other benefits, including protecting the skin from sun damage7 and even reducing one’s risk of colon8 and breast cancer.9" Jen Allbritton, CN "You need at least
20 mg of lutein and at least one mg of zeaxanthin to make a difference in your

I also take a 20 mg Lutein
supplement (See Supplement Protocol) three times a week
and eat at least one avocado a day. "Studies also suggest that you absorb lutein much better from a purified lutein supplement, which may contain nearly twice the levels you get from spinach or other vegetable sources.” Doctor Joseph Mercola MD
