Evidence notes

Lutein has good evidence for eye health, supported by the AREDS2 trial and meta-analyses showing benefit in age-related macular degeneration. However, FruiteLP as a specific branded extract has limited independent peer-reviewed validation. Grade reflects strong evidence for lutein itself tempered by proprietary formulation specificity.

Grade B: Some human trials support key claims; further confirmation needed.
