HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Lutein 10 mg by Lake Avenue Nutrition
Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.
What’s inside
Full disclosure
This product contains one active ingredient: lutein 10 mg per capsule. Lutein is a naturally occurring pigment found in leafy greens and other plant foods; it accumulates in the eye, where it may help protect vision.
The capsule also contains inactive ingredients—rice powder, modified cellulose, and magnesium stearate—which are common fillers and binders.
Does it work?
Moderate evidence
The evidence on lutein for eye health is mixed. It's rated possibly effective for age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and cataracts, meaning some studies suggest a benefit but the evidence isn't conclusive.
For retinitis pigmentosa, retinopathy of prematurity, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, and necrotizing enterocolitis, lutein is rated possibly ineffective based on the available data we hold.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Lutein from food and typical supplement doses is generally well tolerated in adults. Studies have used doses up to 20 mg daily without adverse effects reported.
The safety data on higher supplement doses in pregnancy and breast-feeding is limited, so the facts advise caution and recommend checking with your doctor if you're pregnant or nursing. Lutein does occur naturally in breast milk, but the safety of supplement amounts beyond what appears naturally hasn't been well studied.
Meds to double-check
