10 mg Lutein, 2 mg zeaxanthin, 10 mg meso-zeaxanthin

"This is a lutein (10mg), zeaxanthin (2mg) and meso-zeaxanthin (10mg) one-a-day food supplement which combines all three macular carotenoids.~These three nutrients are found at the back of the eye, at the macula, where they form the macular pigment (yellow colour). Meso-zeaxanthin is particularly concentrated at the centre of this pigment.~Lutein and zeaxanthin can be found in fruits and dark green leafy vegetables and meso-zeaxanthin is present in some species of fish and seafood."
