Lutein is a yellow plant pigment found in fruits, vegetables and animal products such as egg yolks. It accumulates in large amounts in the retina of the eye where it provides antioxidant protection. It is very similar to zeaxanthin, another yellow plant pigment. Most people do not consume enough zeaxanthin in their daily diet, and supplementation may be necessary.
A deficiency may contribute towards problems with vision and eye health.
