The body needs nutrients for the correct functioning of the ocular system, which are ingested through a varied and balanced diet. However, in certain situations: age, poor diet, bad habits (smoking, prolonged exposure to the sun), aggressive environmental conditions, it is advisable to reinforce the diet with a supplementary supply of nutrients and other ingredients that cannot be synthesised by our body in order to prevent the formation of free radicals.
The intake of Oftan Macula Omega provides the body with: Omega 3 essential fatty acids (DHA and EPA), trace elements (Copper and Zinc) and vitamins (C and E) which help to protect the body's cells against oxidative damage.
Zinc also contributes to the maintenance of vision.
Lutein and Zeaxanthin are carotenoids located in the macula (retina), forming the macular pigment, a yellow pigment that filters blue light and protects the macula against damage caused by free radicals.
Anthocyanins are pigments of the flavonoid family. One of the main functions of flavonoids is their antioxidant activity.
Omega-3 fatty acids (DHA and EPA) are essential for the body. However, the body is unable to synthesise them from other substances and they must be ingested. The retina is rich in Omega 3, specifically DHA, which plays an important role in visual function. DHA contributes to the maintenance of vision. The beneficial effect of this nutrient is obtained with a daily intake of 250mg of DHA, which is why it is recommended to follow a diet rich in Omega 3 fatty oils.
