Below is general information about the safety of the known ingredients contained in the product Zeaxanthin with Lutein. Some ingredients may not be listed. This information does NOT represent a recommendation for or a test of this specific product as a whole.
LIKELY SAFE ...when used orally and appropriately. Consuming up to 20 mg of lutein daily from both dietary and supplemental sources appears to be safe (3219,3220,60167). Lutein supplements have been safely used in clinical trials at doses of up to 20 mg daily for up to 10 years (11798,60133,60177,94703,94701,100986,104570,107107,108615,109763).
CHILDREN: LIKELY SAFE
when used orally and appropriately.
A specific product containing lutein (LUTEINofta, SOOFT Italia SpA) has been used with apparent safety in infants at a dose of 0.14 mg daily for 36 weeks (91163).
PREGNANCY AND LACTATION: LIKELY SAFE
when used orally and appropriately in amounts found in foods.
The high end of dietary lutein intake ranges from 6.9-11.7 mg/day (3219,3220).
LIKELY SAFE ...when olive fruit is used orally and appropriately in amounts commonly found in foods.
POSSIBLY SAFE ...when olive leaf extract is used orally and appropriately. Olive leaf extract providing 51-100 mg oleuropein daily has been used with apparent safety for 6-8 weeks (92245,92247,101860). There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of olive fruit extract when used in amounts greater than those found in foods.
PREGNANCY AND LACTATION:
Insufficient reliable information available; stick with amounts commonly found in foods.
LIKELY SAFE ...when used orally and appropriately in doses of up to 2 mg daily. Zeaxanthin supplements have been safely used in clinical trials at doses of up to 2 mg daily for up to 10 years (94701,94702,94703,108615).
POSSIBLY SAFE ...when used orally and appropriately in amounts greater than 2 mg daily. Zeaxanthin supplements in doses of 8-10 mg daily for up to 12 months have been used with apparent safety in clinical trials (60175,60245).
CHILDREN: POSSIBLY SAFE
when used orally and appropriately.
A specific product containing zeaxanthin (LUTEINofta, SOOFT Italia SpA) has been used with apparent safety in infants at a dose of 0.0006 mg daily for 36 weeks (91163). There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of zeaxanthin at higher doses or in older children.
PREGNANCY AND LACTATION: LIKELY SAFE
when used orally and appropriately in amounts found in foods.
Zeaxanthin is found in breast milk and levels correlate with infant status (106365). There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of supplemental zeaxanthin.
Below is general information about the interactions of the known ingredients contained in the product Zeaxanthin with Lutein. Some ingredients may not be listed. This information does NOT represent a recommendation for or a test of this specific product as a whole.
Theoretically, taking zeaxanthin with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.

Below is general information about the adverse effects of the known ingredients contained in the product Zeaxanthin with Lutein. Some ingredients may not be listed. This information does NOT represent a recommendation for or a test of this specific product as a whole.
General ...Orally, dietary and supplemental lutein is generally well tolerated. Doses up to 20 mg daily have not resulted in adverse effects.
General
...Orally, olive fruit is well tolerated when used in typical food amounts.
Olive leaf extract seems to be well tolerated.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Orally: Headache and stomach discomfort.
Dermatologic ...Orally, one patient in one clinical trial reported bad skin and acne after using olive leaf extract (101860).
Gastrointestinal ...Orally, three patients in one clinical trial reported stomach ache after using olive leaf extract (101860).
Neurologic/CNS ...Orally, three patients in one clinical trial reported headache after using olive leaf extract (101860).
Psychiatric ...In one case report, a 67-year-old female experienced irritability, anger, a lack of control, and feelings of sadness and negativity after consuming a multi-ingredient product containing olive leaf extract 5 grams, horseradish root, and eyebright daily for 38 days. All psychiatric symptoms disappeared within days of stopping the combined product. It is hypothesized that the hydroxytyrosol component of olive leaf extract contributed to these symptoms due to its chemical similarity to dopamine; however, it is not clear if these symptoms were due to the olive leaf extract or to the other ingredients (96245).
Pulmonary/Respiratory ...Olive tree pollen can cause seasonal respiratory allergy (1543).
General ...Orally, dietary and supplemental zeaxanthin are generally well tolerated. No adverse effects have been reported in clinical research.
