ZeaGold®*
ZeaGold® natural zeaxanthin is a paprika extract used as an ingredient for the global nutritional supplement industry. This product line is the only dietary zeaxanthin extract from paprika used for the improvement of ocular and skin health. Clinical research has shown the effectiveness of this ingredient in both product forms offered which include oleoresin and beadlets.
ZeaGold® zeaxanthin is derived from paprika, a GRAS substance (Generally Recognized As Safe) and exempt from color certification in the United States. This is an important benefit in functional foods because ZeaGold® may be used as a nutrient while also imparting color.
Zeaxanthin is a yellow-orange carotenoid pigment found in fruits and vegetables such as peppers, corn, and oranges.
