In Macula is a food supplement that provides many essential nutrients that help regulate and protect the body. The aim is to help keep the structures of the eye healthy and in good condition.
The omega-3 fatty acids are DHA and EPA. These are long-chain polyunsaturated acids that act directly on the structures of the eye. What they do is protect the structures and nourish them so that they can perform all their functions more easily. The daily intake of DHA is also very important for the rest of the body. Lutein and zeaxanthin are pigments that help sharpen eyesight. They act directly on the macula, so they also protect it to some extent from degeneration.
Zinc and copper are two minerals that do not act directly on the eyes, but which are very important for processing vitamin A. Vitamin A is responsible for both protecting and regulating the function of all eye tissues. Vitamin E, on the other hand, is responsible for protecting cells from free radicals. These cause oxidative damage that prevents them from functioning properly and leads to the development of diseases in the different tissues of the body.
Vitamin C, as well as providing antioxidants, helps tissues to repair themselves gradually. This is because it encourages the body to generate the appropriate protein for this purpose. Finally, the B vitamins help the correct metabolism of the nutrients consumed daily.
