INGREDIENTS

VISTASAFFRON is manufactured in the USA from globally sourced ingredients.

DESIGNED FOR BABY BOOMERS

VISTASAFFRON Macular support, helps Baby boomers protect their eyes, especially the macula, this tiny oval-shaped area of the retina.* You use it for reading, driving, watching television and any detailed work. This is the area that is responsible for central vision. It is therefore crucial to care for your macula, especially as you age. With that in mind, we designed our formula with seven highly antioxidant ingredients that target the lens, retina and macula of your eyes. Because a healthy eye means a healthy macula.

Baby boomers in particular need to be careful with their eyes and learn how to support and care for their macular health.

Factors that contribute to damaging your eyes

UV rays from the sun

Artificial blue light

Lack of antioxidants

Pollution

Aging

Your Macula health

First, you need to know that the macula needs a lot of oxygen, more than any other organ in your body. The eyes cells that we use to see are the photoreceptors. Their role is to transmit images from your eyes to your brain, and to do so they use oxygen and nutrients. This function, like any other activity in the body, generates byproducts, mainly free radicals and little fat deposits.

A healthy body is able to constantly feed the photoreceptors with oxygen and nutrients. It also removes and neutralizes byproducts efficiently. But as you age your body can loose its ability to do so: free radicals and fat deposits then accumulate. With time this excess can become toxic for the photoreceptors and prevent them from functioning properly. It is therefore important to supplement yourself with antioxidants, especially as you age.

VISTASAFFRON focuses on antioxidants so you can help your body keep free radicals under control.*

Organic saffron

Saffron is an amazing ingredient that people have used for its health properties for centuries. It is particularly interesting for your eyes. Saffron is highly antioxidant and promote a good supply of oxygen to your eye cells.* Labor intensive and requiring a lot of care, it is therefore very expensive and attracts many counterfeiters. This is why we chose a high quality extract, organic and non GMO. It is also standardized to high levels of  safranal and crocin, its main components. So you always get the same amount of active ingredients in each VISTASAFFRON vegetable capsule.

Macular carotenoids

Another important point you need to be aware of is the role of macular carotenoids: lutein, zeaxanthin and meso-zeaxanthin. These yellow pigments are naturally present in your retina and macula in high concentration. They filter UV rays from the sun and blue light from electronic devices. They also fight free radicals and oxidation.  Once again, as you age the concentration of lutein and zeaxanthin decreases and the pigment layer in your retina becomes thinner. It is crucial to replenish those carotenoid pigments, especially if you expose your body to the sun and  artificial blue light a lot, and if you are over fifty. Having a diet that is not very rich in vegetables and fruits is another factor. VISTASAFFRON contains the 3 macular carotenoids, in the right amounts and best 5:1 ratio. We choose a marigold extract Lutemax® 2020, the best source for lutein, zeaxanthin and meso-zeaxanthin.

Marigold has one of the highest concentration of Lutein and zeaxanthin in nature. It provides both zeaxanthin isomers (RR and meso). Its lutein-zeaxanthin ratio of 5:1 is similar to your body's.

Three other powerful antioxidants

Alpha-carotene is another important yellow pigment that is naturally present in the retinal pigment epithelium. It helps protect your retina.*

We also use astaxanthin, an antioxidant that has the rare capacity to quickly cross into the tissues of the eye.* We get ours from a natural source, Haematococcus pluvial, a green micro algae.

Organic Goji berry extract: Goji berries contain high levels of healthy antioxidants, and are especially high in zeaxanthin. They are rich in Zinc, Selenium, Iron and Potassium. They also contain 8 essential amino acids (out of 9), which is rare.
Τhe antioxidant activity of Goji berries is 2 to 4 times superior to that of blueberries.*
