Carotenoids may reduce migraines
Association between serum carotenoids levels and severe headache or migraine in adults: a cross-sectional study from NHANES.
Indicates potential protective effects.
We investigated the relationship between carotenoid levels in the blood and the prevalence of severe headaches or migraines among US adults. Using data from over 8,900 participants in the NHANES survey, we found a noteworthy inverse association between levels of lutein, zeaxanthin, and several other carotenoids with the incidence of migraines.
While these findings suggest that carotenoids might offer some protective benefits, further research is needed to confirm these results and understand how they work.

Lutein reduces headaches and eye strain
Macular Carotenoid Supplementation Improves Visual Performance, Sleep Quality, and Adverse Physical Symptoms in Those with High Screen Time Exposure.
Moderately relevant study findings.
We explored the effects of macular carotenoid supplementation, specifically lutein, on headaches and various health indicators related to excessive screen time. In this placebo-controlled trial involving 48 young adults, participants took 24 mg of carotenoids daily for six months.
While we observed significant improvements in visual performance and a reduction in headaches, eye strain, and fatigue, it’s essential to note that the direct link between increased macular pigment and headache relief was not established. However, overall symptoms related to excessive screen time showed improvement, enhancing participants' quality of life.

Carotenoids may reduce migraine risk
Association between serum carotenoids and migraine in adults: a cross-sectional study from NHANES data.
Moderate relevance for migraine treatment
We examined how serum carotenoid levels, specifically lutein, relate to migraine risk among U.S. adults. In our study of over 7,700 participants, we found that higher levels of carotenoids were linked to a lower risk of migraines.
Notably, lutein and zeaxanthin showed significant promise, with a reduced probability of migraine in those with higher levels. However, we did not observe any potential benefits from other carotenoids, such as lycopene.
This suggests that increasing carotenoid intake might help reduce migraine frequency, warranting more research.

No more headaches
Lutein has been perfect for my eye health. Long hours at a computer caused my eyes to redden and headaches from strain. After taking lutein, I noticed improvements within a week and have no headaches now. I take it regularly with short breaks. A consultation with my ophthalmologist confirmed its effectiveness. Highly recommend it!

Prevented migraines
Due to extensive computer work, I frequently dealt with migraine headaches. Fortunately, this product has alleviated my headaches. I believe it can help delay conditions such as presbyopia and cataracts if taken proactively.

Reduced eye pain
Eye pain has decreased significantly. I suffer from strong myopia and weak eyes that react badly to light, causing headaches for a long time. Since I began taking this product daily, the pain has lessened considerably. I find it reasonably priced and easy to swallow. I will continue this in the future. If you're experiencing eye pain, I recommend giving it a try.
