The absorption effect of lutein is mainly related to dietary combinations, and it is usually recommended to take it with or after meals, as it is a fat soluble nutrient that can be combined with high-fat foods to increase absorption rate. At present, there is no authoritative conclusion indicating that taking it during a specific time period has the "best" effect. The key is to maintain regular intake and ensure that there is an appropriate amount of fat in the diet.

1、 Key factors affecting lutein absorption
Fat solubility characteristics 1
Lutein belongs to the carotenoid family and needs to be combined with fat in order to be effectively absorbed by the intestine. Taking it on an empty stomach may lead to a decrease in utilization rate. It is recommended to pair it with foods containing healthy fats such as milk, nuts, and eggs.

Dose and Continuity 2
Research shows that a daily dose of 6-20mg can meet the needs of most people and requires long-term regular use (at least 3-6 months) to observe effects such as visual protection. The duration of a single dose in the short term has a relatively small impact on the effectiveness.
