Vital nutrient for eye health! How Does NSI® FloraGLO® Lutein work? Lutein (pronounced LOO-teen) is a carotenoid (natural pigment) found in green leafy vegetables, corn and eggs. It functions as an antioxidant protecting healthy cells from damage caused by free radicals, while also filtering out potentially dangerous high energy blue light from the visible light spectrum. After ingestion, lutein is deposited in the eyes, specifically in the macula and the lens. The macula, located in the center of the retina, is responsible for producing the sharp, central vision needed to see fine detail (for reading, sewing, etc.). Higher lutein levels may be associated with macular health. NSI® FloraGLO® Lutein is manufactured using a patented purification process that creates a version chemically identical to that found in vegetables and eggs. It is the only lutein on the market designated GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) for food and beverage products. Studies recommend taking 6 mg to 20 mg daily for eye health, antioxidant protection and more. NSI® FloraGLO® Lutein is better because it:. Is purified with a patented manufacturing process. Is identical to the lutein found naturally in vegetables and eggs. Did You Know? All NSI supplements are packaged in HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) bottles. These bottles keep moisture vapor out, protecting the freshness and integrity of their contents, and are 400% more effective compared other brands currently using PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) bottles. HDPE bottles do not break as glass can and are also recyclable so we urge you to please recycle them.

"Both my daughter and I have been using this product for better than 3 months. I was having some blurring and focusing problems--lutein eliminated those completely! My daughter's eyes were getting tired on a regular basis, but they aren't any more. This product is worth every penny if you're having eye issues. This is a product that I'll take for the rest of my life, because my eyesight is precious!"

"This product does improve my overall eye health (less floaters, less tire eyes, improved contrast). My concern is the soy (soy is linked to estrogen dominance which caused cancer) that present in the 120 softgels bottle. I do notice that soy is not stated on the labels of 60 softgels or 240 softgels version. Just wish that NSI is more consistent on the ingredients listed."

"My eyes dont get dry or itchy considering the weather. My eyes dont get tired using the computer several hours a day.
I still wear glasses. I did not improve my vision. But it did not get worst. So I would say it kept it at the same vision grade (prescription).
Considering the price for its ingredients I am satisfied, but would have desired more, like having a 20/20 vision. :)."

"Since taking FloraGLO everyday now for over two years, I have had improved long and short range vision. At age 51, I use no vision correction and can still read very small print. I highly recommend FloraGLO for vision improvement."

"I love the product Lutein Flora-Glo 20 mg. But, I must say that I was VERY disappointed that 2 of the 6 bottles I ordered are to expire 7/07, while the other 4 don't expire until late in the year 2008. I am calling VitaCost and find out if these 2 bottles will be replaced. Hopefully they will accomodate."
