Abstract: We review the direct evidence for the safety and efficacy of XanMax® 2002 free lutein/zeaxanthin. Animal studies demonstrated that XanMax® 2002 lutein/zeaxanthin was well absorbed into the blood and with increased macular deposits of lutein and zeaxanthin, and increased antioxidant potential. In a human study, these increases in macular levels of lutein and zeaxanthin were demonstrated to improve macular pigment optical density (MPOD) by 40%. The three studies, when integrated together, demonstrate that supplementing the diet with XanMax® 2002 can be measured by absorption into the blood, deposition in the macular, and improvements in MPOD. No abnormalities or adverse events were reported. We conclude that supplementation with XanMax® 2002 lutein/zeaxanthin is a safe and effective means to increase macular pigmentation, therefore demonstrating benefits for healthy aging and improved eye health.
