Factors Differentiating the Antioxidant Activity of Macular Xanthophylls in the Human Eye Retina
Macular xanthophylls, which are absorbed from the human diet, accumulate in high concentrations in the human retina, where they efficiently protect against oxidative stress that may lead to retinal damage. In addition, macular xanthophylls are uniquely spatially distributed in the retina. The zeaxan...
