Marigold Extract Powder 5-80% Lutein

What is Marigold Extract Powder Lutein?

Lutein, a natural plant pigment with multiple biological activities, has been widely used in foods, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics. However, due to its largely unsaturated structure, lutein suffers from poor water solubility and stability, is easily degraded and inactivated, and has low oral bioavailability, significantly impacting its effectiveness.

Lutein, broadly defined, refers to the carotenoid xanthophylls, which include lutein and its isomers, such as zeaxanthin and meso-zeaxanthin. Despite their different names, they are all xanthophylls and can be converted into each other and coexist in certain proportions. The primary industrial source of natural lutein is lutein monomers, obtained by extracting and saponifying lutein esters from marigold.

Key Features

1. Supports Eye Health

Researchers have studied lutein and zeaxanthin extract a lot in the subject of food. They are particularly crucial for keeping the eyes safe from blue light and age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The retina has a lot of them. Eating and drinking foods and beverages that are rich in lutein may help keep your eyes healthy and minimize your chance of acquiring eye disorders.

2. Anti-Inflammatory Properties

Because it is anti-inflammatory, marigold extract powder may help lower inflammation in the body and make the immune system stronger as a whole. Researchers have discovered that certain elements of marigold flowers may halt the formation of sensors that make you itch. It seems that marigold flowers could be a natural method to help with skin issues like atopic contact dermatitis. It may also assist those with chronic inflammatory illnesses since it decreases inflammation.

3. Skin Health and Repair

Because lutein extract powder may prevent and reduce inflammation, marigold extract is widely utilized in skin care products. Lutein powder soothes skin that is red and irritated and helps the skin's barrier mend. Researchers have discovered that marigold extract may boost the synthesis of the proteins Occludin and Claudin-1. These proteins are particularly crucial for sustaining the skin's covering function. This is a great way for folks who want their skin to be more flexible and moist.

Applications in Meat Products
Lycopene is the primary component of the red pigment in fruits like tomatoes. It has strong antioxidant properties and excellent physiological functions, making it a preservative and colorant in meat products. Furthermore, the acidity of lycopene-rich tomato products lowers the pH of meat, inhibiting the growth of spoilage microorganisms to a certain extent. Therefore, it can be used as a preservative and freshness-preserving agent in meat products, partially replacing nitrites.

Applications in Edible Oils
Adding lycopene to edible oils can mitigate oil deterioration.
