Zeaxanthin is a naturally occurring xanthophyll pigment and an oxygenated carotenoid. It belongs to the carotenoid family and is structurally characterized by two ketone groups, giving it an orange-yellow to deep-yellow hue. As a lipophilic compound, zeaxanthin is commonly found in association with lutein, particularly in plant photosynthetic tissues. It plays a crucial role in human health, primarily by accumulating in the macula of the retina, where it functions as a key antioxidant and light-filtering agent.

 

1. Eye Health Supplements: Zeaxanthin is widely used in dietary supplements aimed at maintaining and improving ocular health. It helps protect the retina from oxidative stress and blue light damage, reducing the risk of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and cataracts.
2. Food Colorant: Due to its vibrant color, zeaxanthin is utilized as a natural food colorant in various food products, enhancing their visual appeal without the use of synthetic dyes.
3. Cosmetic Formulations: In the cosmetic industry, zeaxanthin is incorporated into skincare products for its antioxidant properties, which may help protect the skin from UV-induced damage and premature aging.

1. Antioxidant Activity: Zeaxanthin neutralizes free radicals, thereby preventing oxidative damage to cells and tissues. This antioxidant effect is particularly important in the retina, where it helps maintain the health of photoreceptor cells.
2. Blue Light Filtration: By absorbing harmful blue light wavelengths, zeaxanthin acts as a natural filter in the macula, reducing the risk of light-induced retinal damage and improving visual performance.
3. Anti-inflammatory Effects: Zeaxanthin exhibits anti-inflammatory properties, which may contribute to its protective effects in ocular health and potentially in other inflammatory conditions.
