Meso-Z Vision 30 caps (P1073-30)
Patient One Meso-Z Vision supplies a complex of lutein, zeaxanthin and meso-zeaxanthin, naturally occurring plant pigments (carotenoids) that are concentrated in the macula. Research has shown that macular pigment increases upon supplementation with lutein, zeaxanthin and meso -zeaxanthin, and that macular pigment increases are higher when all three are taken together.
Meso-Z Vision also helps protect the eyes from blue light, the most damaging spectrum of visible light. Today’s “digital lifestyle” increases high-energy blue light exposure risk, creating a new concern for all age groups. Blue light exposure is often associated with electronics having LED screens including computer monitors, smart phones, tablets, e-readers, and TV. This formula helps filter and absorb blue light to help reduce the formation of free radicals, providing antioxidant support for the retina.
Meso-Z Vision Key Ingredients
Lutein, Zeaxanthin and Meso-Zeaxanthin are important eye nutrients that the human body needs but does not naturally make. Most Western diets are low in lutein and zeaxanthin, carotenoids found in high quantities in the retina (macula) of the eye.
Unlike the more familiar lutein and zeaxanthin, a third carotenoid–meso-zeaxanthin–has been detected in the retina. This compound is a stereoisomer of zeaxanthin that is not commonly present in the normal human diet or blood, making supplementation the only practical source outside of the body.
Lutein, zeaxanthin and meso-zeaxanthin are yellow pigments that are critical for the absorption of blue light, which contains a shorter wavelength in the visual spectrum and as such delivers high energy to photosensitizers in the eye. Meso-Z Vision filters harmful high energy blue wavelengths of light and helps protect and maintain healthy cells in the eyes.
