LUTEIN TASTE MASKING GRANULES
Lutein belongs to the xanthophyll class of carotenoids and are majorly associated with eye health. Lutein can be obtained from a variety of sources like fruits, vegetables and animal products. It is thought to function as a light filter, protecting the eye tissues from sunlight damage. While these pigments play an important role in plant health, they also provide health benefits for people who eat foods that are a good source of this phytonutrient. It is thought to function as a light filter, protecting the eye tissues from sunlight damage. Foods rich in lutein include egg yolks, spinach, kale, corn, orange pepper, kiwi fruit, grapes, zucchini, and squash. The yellow color of lutein is directly linked to its structure and as a result gives yellow color to egg yolk, animal fat and human eye retinal macula. Lutein contains 40 carbon atoms hence known as tetraterpenoids.
