July’s Dietitian Pick of the Month is: Alcon ICaps® Lutein & Omega-3
Did you know?
• Lutein and zeaxanthin are critical in maintaining the health of your eyes. The American diet only provides about 2 mg daily - far below intakes clinically shown to
help your eyes stay healthy.
• Taking eye vitamins containing 10 mg lutein and 2 mg zeaxanthin can help bridge this gap.
• Alcon ICaps Lutein & Omega-3 is formulated with FloraGLO brand lutein, the most trusted brand by doctors*.
The benefits of taking lutein and zeaxanthin every day:
• Maintains healthy vision as you age
• Act as powerful antioxidants that work like internal sunglasses, protecting your eyes from damaging light
• Shown to reduce the risk of certain eye conditions
• Reduces the time your eyes need to recover from glaring light, like headlights, while driving at night
*Based on the results of the National Disease and Therapeutic Index Syndicated Report among physicians who recommend a
dietary supplement with lutein for eye health – Aug. 2010 – Aug. 2011 (USA data).
