Zeaxanthin Powder From Marigold Extract

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.

The relationship between marigold and zeaxanthin

Marigold, also known as medal marigold, is a widely cultivated flower plant. Studies have shown that marigold is rich in zeaxanthin, a compound that is believed to help protect eye and cardiovascular health. In marigold, zeaxanthin is mainly found in anthocyanin compounds.

Health Benefits of Zeaxanthin

• Eye protection:
  Zeaxanthin can cross the blood-retinal barrier and accumulate in the retina, helping to prevent eye diseases such as advanced macular degeneration. Studies have shown that taking marigold extracts rich in zeaxanthin can help relieve eye fatigue and dry eye symptoms.
• Cardiovascular protection:
  Supplementing mice with zeaxanthin from marigold extracts can improve their cardiovascular health and reduce cholesterol and triglyceride levels in the blood.

Application of zeaxanthin:

• Food industry:
  Zeaxanthin, as a natural food pigment, is gradually replacing synthetic pigments such as lemon yellow and sunset yellow.
• Health products:
  Research and development of health products with zeaxanthin as the main functional ingredient will have broad market prospects.
• Feed additive:
  Zeaxanthin is used as a feed additive to effectively improve animal nutritional status, egg yolk, poultry meat and skin color.
