DESCRIZIONE
Micro micellar form of carotenoids or xanthophylls, which show improved absorption and biovailability by living organisms, providing higher levels of carotenoids in the blood stream, and consequently are deposited at the target tissues at a faster rate, and more efficiently than crystalline carotenoids, which does not contain any crystal forms of carotenoids, and which are obtained as micro micelles after melting Lutein diacetate or Lutein dipropionate in their natural original lipid vegetable matrix, in the presence of lipids, phospholipids, fatty acids, emulsifiers and moisture, and are ingested in a dosage between 2 to 50 mg, to provide an absorption of the carotenoid solubilizate which is at least 20% above than that of crystalline carotenoids, and provides a macular pigment deposit which exceeds at least 10% of Macular Pigment Optical Density, than the deposition obtained by ingesting crystalline Lutein. Thus preventing tissue degeneration, UV light damage to skin and the retina, and in general to act as more effective and efficient antioxidants than when administered in crystalline form.
