Zeaxanthin is a dietary carotenoid that accumulates in the retina (particularly the macula) and has antioxidant activity that may improve obesity, prevent age-related macular degeneration, and protect against nonalcoholic steatohepatitis.
Phytic acid sodium salt (Sodium phytate hydrate) is known to function as a [PO4]3- storage depot and a precursor for other inositol phosphates and pyrophosphates. It is a potent chelator of divalent and trivalent cations in vitro.
trans-Zeatinriboside (Ribosylzeatin) is the most active and ubiquitous form of the naturally occurring cytokinins that promote cell division, stimulate shoot proliferation, inhibit root formation, slow the aging process, and activate gene expression and metabolic activity.
Zeaxanthin dipalmitate (Physalien) is a lutein carotenoid found in fruits with anti-inflammatory, hepatoprotective, and anti-oxidative stress activity that attenuates ethanol-induced liver injury.Zeaxanthin dipalmitate restores mitochondrial autophagy, a function that has been inhibited by ethanol intoxication. Zeaxanthin dipalmitate protects degenerated photoreceptors in the retina of mice and improves visual acuity in a mouse model of photoreceptor degeneration, and may be used in studies of alcoholic fatty liver disease (AFLD) and retinitis pigmentosa (RP).
