Zeaxanthin Powder From Marigold Extract

1.What is Zeaxanthin?

Zeaxanthin also known as “zeaxanthin” and “zeaxanthin”, is a fat-soluble pigment component of lutein and a dihydroxy derivative of β-carotene.
Zeaxanthin is an oxygen-containing natural carotenoid and is an isomer of lutein.
It is widely distributed in nature, and most of the zeaxanthin in nature is the all-trans isomer.
Zeaxanthin cannot be synthesized in the human body and needs to be obtained through daily diet.

2.Characteristics of DayNatural’s Zeaxanthin Powder

Zeaxanthin Powder is a natural pigment and nutritional supplement extracted from marigold (Tagetes erecta L.). Marigold is an annual herbaceous plant of the genus Tagetes in the Asteraceae family.

3.Mechanism of Action of Zeaxanthin Powder

• Zeaxanthin is highly enriched in the macular area of the retina, with a maximum absorption band of ‌ 400-500 nm‌. It can effectively filter high-energy blue light (such as from electronic screens, LED lights, etc.) and reduce photo-oxidative damage ‌.
• Strong antioxidant defense ‌
  A single zeaxanthin molecule can quench ‌over 1,000 singlet oxygen ‌, and its antioxidant capacity is ‌10 times that of vitamin E.‌‌
  By activating the ‌Nrf2/ARE pathway ‌, it upregulates endogenous antioxidant enzymes such as glutathione and superoxide dismutase. ‌
  Inhibit the ‌NF-κB inflammatory pathway ‌and alleviate chronic retinal inflammation ‌
• It works in synergy with lutein to form “macular pigment optical density” ‌
  In the macular area, zeaxanthin is concentrated in the ‌fovea ‌, while lutein is distributed in the ‌ periphery ‌. The two work together in a ratio of approximately ‌1:2 to 1:5‌ to form a natural “sun protection layer”, enhancing visual acuity and contrast sensitivity .

4.Application fields of Zeaxanthin Powder

• Food additives (natural yellow pigment, used in beverages, baking, sauces).
