Fuji: Astaxanthin Eye Research Significant

MOUNT LAUREL, N.J.—Fuji Health Science Inc. released a statement that seven published human clinical studies have shown a positive link between astaxanthin intake and reduced eye fatigue; all studies used Fuji’s AstaREAL® natural astaxanthin and were conducted at different universities between 1999 and 2005. Fuji has two pending patents related to the use of astaxanthin in eye fatigue and accommodation.

“Up to this point, astaxanthin research has looked like a dart board with small, single studies probing hopeful areas,” said Charles DePrince, president of Fuji Health Science (www.fujihealthscience.com). “However, this critical mass of research for eye fatigue is the first well-researched area for astaxanthin and typical of Fuji’s commitment to the development of scientific data for this exceptional carotenoid.”
