In this session, attendees will explore the role of lutein, a powerful antioxidant, in supporting eye and brain health. We'll discuss the science behind how lutein protects against oxidative stress, enhances visual performance, and contributes to cognitive function. Attendees will leave with practical insights into how dietary and supplemental lutein can be leveraged to optimize both ocular and neurological outcomes.
Learning Objectives:
Upon conclusion of this activity, attendees will be able to:
Define lutein and its role in the eye and brain
Discuss the evidence behind what supplementation can benefit - glare, contrast, etc
Review factors that impact efficacy of supplementation - like gut health, isomer, other vitamins you take with it
Understand the science behind how lutein protects against oxidative stress, enhances visual performance, and contributes to cognitive function
