NOW Foods Lutein 10 mg Softgels, 120

Misleading label… really only 10mg of Lutein

This product has only 10 mg of ordinary lutein per pill. The 20 mg of "lutein esters" is not equivalent to the 20 mg pills you can get at Walmart or other places. However, the pills came on time and were good for vision, even at a lower dose than I expected

Vision Supplement

I added this to my supplement regimen when I realized how much was needed for vision issues. My husband & I both take it & find that prior problems with vision seem to have resolved, according to our eye doctor. NOW Foods seems to be a very reliable brand

Good for your eyes

Lutein is essential for healthy eyes. Several friends of mine have eye problems including macular degeneration and all their doctors recommended Lutein. Not that it would cure anything just help in keeping the eye as healthy as possible. Now products are usually excellent that is why I chose Now Lutein. i take it every day

falling sensation

after taking this everyday for a week, i frequently feel a "half a second falling sensation" everyday. at first i thought i may be getting some illness, and i know it is not vertigo as i had vertigo before. i also do not want to go to the doctor as they may be alarmed and put me through many expensive tests to investigate. i googled a bit and it says it is due to stress, nothing to worry about. but i am healthy and not stressed, so i start to think what was it that i had started to intake and i traced it to this supplement. i stopped taking and two weeks later that sensation is gone. my husband is taking too but he is fine. i am writing this so that if anyone feel some weirdness or slight giddiness, it could be this

I Like It

There may be a better product out there but this product is very good. It has lutein derived from Marigold flowers I believe. Whatever the case its good for the eyes

Just the Right Amount at a Good Price

My mother's eye doctors recommended 10 mg of lutein daily for her macular degeneration because that was the amount used in studies. Most of what we find in the local stores is either 6mg or 20 mg or higher. She is on so many meds, we don't want her to take more than the doctor thinks she needs. This Now Foods lutein gives us the amount used in the studies in a bulk quantity that doesn't have us constantly running out and at a reasonable price. Mom's macular degeneration has been stable for many years on this amount of lutein

Contains gelatin, NOT vegetarian

Very disappointed. I wish they had included a photo of the back side of the label on the website so the buyer could see the ingredients. I'm vegetarian and would never have purchased this item if I had known it contained gelatin (hooves and bones of cows). Yuck. Hooray for Amazon--they are refunding my money and return shipping is at no charge to me
