What is Lutein Ester Oil?
Our Lutein Ester Oil is a highly purified carotenoid oil-dispersed additive of Tagetes erecta L., standardized to lutein esters levels that are exact enough to agree with the industrial applications. It has multiple market specifications that are generally acknowledged to purchase and formulate nutraceutical, food, and animal health products.
Available Specifications (Lutein Ester)
10% Lutein Ester Oil (= 5% free lutein equivalent)
Suitable for standard-dose and multi-ingredient form, too.
20% Lutein Ester Oil (approximately 10% free lutein equivalent)
Chosen as a preferred source of general dietary supplements and softgel manufacturing that upholds economies.
40% Lutein Ester oil (~ 20% Free lutein)
It is appropriate for concentrated formulations, where it is desired to obtain a large result per gram of dosage.
All specifications are determined by HPLC, and these are then provided in purified carrier oil, like sunflower oil or MCT oil, where there is good solubility, oxidative stability, and compatibility with lipid-based delivery systems.

Dosage
The safety level of Lutein Ester Oil taken as recommended in the product must vary according to the product formulation, target market regulations, and health benefits. Generally, the inclusion rate of dietary supplements and functional foods would be 5 mg -20 mg Lutein Esters per serving, a balance between efficacy and feasible formulation. In feed applications, the dose can vary according to species and intended nutritional support and is usually manufacturer-specific. Manufacturers have a need to consider such factors as product form, delivery system, and stability to determine the most prescribed dose. We, technical personnel, assist the group in making appropriate levels of use by offering technical advice to achieve such a goal in line with the regulations at large and consistency in the performance of its products when they are made commercially.
Benefits
1. Enhanced Retinal Nutrient Delivery
The stability of lutein ester is higher in an oil-based form, which is able to deliver to the retina via lipid transport processes in a more efficient manner. This could maximize the availability of nutrients with regard to the macula and the peripheral retina.
2. Support for Blue Light Filtering
This oil is more likely to be added into cell membranes through its lipophilic characteristic and replace high-energy blue lights with a natural filter to alleviate fatigue situations due to digital screens.
3. Promotes Long-Term Visual Adaptation
Its supplementation might enhance the changes between brightness and low lighting conditions in the eyes, enhancing visual performance in dark and light environments with time.
4. Stabilized Antioxidant Activity in Lipid Tissues
The carboxylic acid, which is esterified, is more stable under digestion and transport. This aids the sustenance of antioxidants of lipid-rich organs such as the brain and eyes, where there is concern over oxidative stress.
5. Supports Healthy Aging of Skin and Eyes
Through protection against light-induced oxidative damage, it can potentially enhance the integrity of ocular tissues and skin that is exposed to sunshine, thus helping to maintain eye health.
6. Facilitates Biointegration with Dietary Fats
It is easily incorporated into dietary fats and boosts absorption without calling upon further emulsifiers or elaborate carriers, as with high-fat meals or softgel products.
7. Improves Tear Film Lipid Stability
Preliminary data indicate that esterified lutein in the oil-based form could aid in the stabilization of the lipid layer of the tear film, providing some support for the dry eye conditions.
8. Neurological Support via Lipid Pathways
Once hydrolyzed in the body, it passes to the brain via the lipid transport system, adding to the health of the nerve, whereby it contributes to nerve health more so in areas of vision, memory, and processing speed.
9. Convenient Integration in Functional Foods
Due to its stability and solubility in oil, it can be suggested to be utilized in functional beverages and oil-based nutritional systems, and many people can use it as a long-term use in healthy routines more easily.
10. Less Risk of Crystallization
In contrast to some of the powdered or crystalline powders of lutein, lutein ester in oil does not repulse and crystallize, which ensures consistency of dose delivery and absorption.
Safety
It has been well researched globally and is attributed to be a safe ingredient to be used in diet supplements, functional foods, and animal feed products. Many regulatory authorities around the world, such as the U.S. FDA, EFSA (European Food Safety Authority), or FSANZ (Food Standards Australia New Zealand), have reviewed Lutein and its esters and given them permission to be used in set dosage limits with safety data. The oils obtained through non-GMO marigold flowers are produced in accordance with high GMP, HACCP, and tested harshly in order to adhere to the international guidelines on food safety by the presence of contaminants, e.g., heavy metals, pesticides, residual solvents, and microbial contents. Such quality checks guarantee that they adhere to international regulations such as Codex Alimentarius and regional policies so that a manufacturer is in a position to add lutein ester oil to products that they intend to sell in the market.
