Certified IFOS 5 Star, the highest rating awarded by the International Fish Oil Standards program, the world's most rigorous independent third party fish oil testing and certification program. Omega 3 fatty acids EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) are among the most extensively researched nutrients in nutritional science, with thousands of peer reviewed studies supporting their role in cardiovascular health, brain function, and inflammatory balance. Health Canada licensed and manufactured in Canada to GMP standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Science\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat Are EPA and DHA?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) are long chain omega 3 polyunsaturated fatty acids that are essential for human health. EPA is the primary omega 3 fatty acid involved in the production of anti inflammatory eicosanoids, prostaglandins, and resolvins that support a healthy inflammatory response throughout the body. DHA is a structural component of cell membranes throughout the body and is particularly concentrated in the brain (where it constitutes approximately 97% of the omega 3 fatty acids in the brain), the retina (where it constitutes approximately 93% of the omega 3 fatty acids), and the heart. Both EPA and DHA must be obtained from the diet or supplementation as the body's ability to synthesize them from shorter chain omega 3 fatty acids (such as ALA from plant sources) is limited and highly variable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy rTG Form Is Superior to Ethyl Ester Fish Oil\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFish oil supplements are available in three primary forms: natural triglyceride (TG), ethyl ester (EE), and re esterified triglyceride (rTG). The majority of fish oil supplements on the market use the ethyl ester form because it is less expensive to produce. However, ethyl ester fish oil has significantly lower bioavailability than triglyceride forms, with research showing 50 to 70% lower absorption compared to natural triglyceride fish oil. Re esterified triglyceride (rTG) fish oil is produced by converting ethyl ester fish oil back into the natural triglyceride structure, resulting in a highly concentrated, highly bioavailable form that matches the natural structure of omega 3 fatty acids as they exist in fish. Research consistently demonstrates that rTG fish oil provides superior EPA and DHA absorption compared to ethyl ester forms, making it the preferred choice for pharmaceutical grade omega 3 supplementation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat Is IFOS 5 Star Certification?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIFOS (International Fish Oil Standards) is the world's most rigorous independent third party testing and certification program for fish oil supplements. IFOS tests fish oil products for EPA and DHA content accuracy, total oxidation (TOTOX value), PCBs, dioxins, furans, heavy metals (mercury, lead, cadmium, arsenic), and other environmental contaminants. The IFOS 5 Star rating is the highest certification level awarded, indicating that the product meets or exceeds all IFOS standards for purity, potency, and freshness. IFOS 5 Star certification provides independent, third party verification that the omega 3 content on the label is accurate and that the product is free from harmful levels of contaminants, providing the highest level of quality assurance available for fish oil supplements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOmega 3 and Cardiovascular Health\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEPA and DHA are among the most extensively researched nutrients for cardiovascular health. Research on omega 3 supplementation consistently demonstrates support for healthy triglyceride levels within normal ranges, healthy blood pressure, healthy platelet function, and a healthy inflammatory response in cardiovascular tissue. EPA and DHA support cardiovascular health through multiple complementary mechanisms including modulating eicosanoid production, supporting healthy endothelial function, and contributing to the structural integrity of cardiac cell membranes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOmega 3 and Brain Health\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDHA is the primary structural fatty acid in the brain, constituting approximately 97% of the omega 3 fatty acids in brain tissue and playing a critical role in maintaining the fluidity and function of neuronal cell membranes. Adequate DHA supports cognitive function, mental clarity, and healthy mood regulation. EPA contributes to brain health through its anti inflammatory and eicosanoid modulating properties, supporting a healthy neuroinflammatory response.

They're made up of multiple structures working together: the cornea that focuses light, the lens that fine tunes that focus, the retina that converts light into signals, and the optic nerve that sends those signals to your brain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike all parts of your body, your eyes need proper nutrition to function optimally. Certain nutrients are particularly important for eye health because they're concentrated in eye tissues or play specific roles in visual function.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs you age, your eyes face various challenges. Exposure to light, especially blue light from screens, creates oxidative stress. Normal aging processes affect the lens and retina. Environmental factors like UV radiation and pollution can impact eye health over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Role of Nutrition in Eye Health\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eResearch has shown that certain nutrients play crucial roles in maintaining eye health. Some act as antioxidants, protecting eye tissues from oxidative damage. Others are structural components of the retina. Some support the health of blood vessels that supply the eyes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile a balanced diet provides many of these nutrients, modern eating habits and food processing can leave gaps. That's where targeted supplementation comes in, providing concentrated amounts of the specific nutrients your eyes need.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Inside IVIZON Max\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis formula brings together nutrients that have been studied for their roles in eye health.

What makes them special for eye health is that they're the only carotenoids found in the macula, the central part of your retina responsible for sharp, detailed vision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLutein and zeaxanthin act like natural sunglasses for your eyes. They filter high energy blue light and function as antioxidants in the retina. Your body can't make these compounds, so you need to get them from food or supplements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe macula has the highest concentration of these carotenoids in your entire body, which tells you how important they are for that tissue. Research has shown that higher levels of macular pigment (made up of lutein and zeaxanthin) are associated with better visual function.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eZinc\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eZinc is a trace mineral that's highly concentrated in the eye, particularly in the retina and the tissue layer beneath it. It plays multiple roles in eye health.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirst, zinc is essential for vitamin A metabolism. Vitamin A needs zinc to be converted into its active form and to be transported from the liver to the retina. Second, zinc is a component of many enzymes in the eye that are involved in visual function. Third, it acts as an antioxidant, helping protect eye tissues from oxidative damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe retina uses zinc for the normal function of photoreceptor cells, the specialized cells that detect light. Without adequate zinc, visual function can be impaired.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVitamin A\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVitamin A is absolutely essential for vision. It's a component of rhodopsin, a protein in your eyes that allows you to see in low light conditions. When light hits rhodopsin, it triggers a cascade of events that result in a visual signal being sent to your brain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVitamin A deficiency is actually one of the leading causes of preventable blindness worldwide, though it's rare in developed countries. Even mild deficiency can affect night vision and overall visual function.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeyond its role in rhodopsin, vitamin A also supports the health of the cornea and conjunctiva, the clear tissues at the front of your eye.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVitamin C\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVitamin C is a powerful water soluble antioxidant that's found in high concentrations in the eye, particularly in the aqueous humor (the fluid in the front part of your eye) and the lens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs an antioxidant, vitamin C helps protect eye tissues from oxidative damage caused by light exposure, UV radiation, and normal metabolic processes. It also plays a role in maintaining the health of blood vessels in the eye.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eResearch has shown that people with higher vitamin C intake tend to have better eye health outcomes. The eye's high metabolic activity and exposure to light make antioxidant protection particularly important.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVitamin E\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVitamin E is a fat soluble antioxidant that protects cell membranes from oxidative damage. In the eye, it works alongside other antioxidants like vitamin C to provide comprehensive protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe retina is particularly rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids, which are vulnerable to oxidative damage. Vitamin E helps protect these delicate fats, maintaining the integrity of retinal cell membranes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStudies have shown that vitamin E, especially when combined with other antioxidants, supports long term eye health.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eB Vitamins\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSeveral B vitamins play roles in eye health. They're involved in energy metabolism, which is crucial because the retina has one of the highest metabolic rates of any tissue in your body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eB vitamins also support the health of the optic nerve and may play a role in reducing oxidative stress in eye tissues. They work together with other nutrients in this formula to provide comprehensive support.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBotanical Extracts\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIVIZON Max includes botanical extracts that have been traditionally used for eye health. These plant based ingredients provide additional antioxidants and beneficial compounds that complement the vitamins and minerals in the formula.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBotanical extracts often contain multiple active compounds that work together, providing benefits that isolated nutrients might not offer on their own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow These Nutrients Work Together\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe power of IVIZON Max comes from the synergy between these ingredients. They don't work in isolation, they support and enhance each other's functions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor example, zinc helps vitamin A work properly. Vitamin C helps regenerate vitamin E after it's been oxidized. The carotenoids and vitamins work together to provide antioxidant protection at different sites in the eye.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is why comprehensive formulas tend to be more effective than single nutrient supplements for eye health. You're addressing multiple aspects of eye function and protection simultaneously.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat the Research Shows\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEye health supplements have been extensively studied. Large scale research has examined the effects of various nutrient combinations on visual function and eye health over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStudies have shown that supplementation with antioxidants and zinc can support eye health, particularly in people at higher risk for age related eye changes. Research on lutein and zeaxanthin has demonstrated their role in supporting macular health and visual performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe combination of nutrients in eye health formulas has been shown to increase macular pigment density, improve visual function in various lighting conditions, and support overall eye health.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho Uses Eye Health Supplements\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePeople choose eye health supplements for various reasons. Some are concerned about age related changes in vision. Others spend long hours in front of screens and want to support their eye health. People with family history of eye issues often take them proactively.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnyone over 50, people who work on computers all day, those exposed to bright sunlight regularly, smokers or former smokers, and people with diets low in fruits and vegetables might consider eye health supplementation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou don't need to have eye problems to benefit from supporting your eye health. Many people take these supplements as preventive nutrition, just like they might take other vitamins for overall wellness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eLifestyle Factors for Eye Health\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSupplements work best when combined with healthy habits. Here's what else supports your eyes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProtect your eyes from UV radiation by wearing sunglasses outdoors. UV exposure over time can damage eye tissues, so protection is important.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGive your eyes breaks from screens. The 20-20-20 rule is helpful: every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds. This reduces eye strain and gives your eyes a rest from close up work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEat a diet rich in colorful fruits and vegetables. Leafy greens, orange and yellow vegetables, and berries provide many of the same nutrients found in eye health supplements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDon't smoke. Smoking is one of the biggest risk factors for eye health problems. If you smoke, quitting is one of the best things you can do for your eyes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGet regular eye exams. Supplements support eye health, but they're not a substitute for professional eye care. Regular checkups can catch problems early when they're most treatable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eScreen Time and Blue Light\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eModern life means lots of screen time, and screens emit blue light. Blue light is high energy visible light that can reach deep into the eye.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile blue light exposure from screens is much lower than from sunlight, the concern is the duration and proximity of exposure. We spend hours every day looking at screens up close.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLutein and zeaxanthin filter blue light in the retina, which is one reason they're included in eye health formulas. They act as a natural filter, absorbing blue light before it reaches the photoreceptor cells.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeyond supplementation, you can reduce blue light exposure by using screen filters, enabling night mode on devices, and taking regular breaks from screens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAge Related Eye Changes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs you age, various changes occur in your eyes. The lens becomes less flexible, making it harder to focus on close objects. The amount of light reaching the retina decreases. Oxidative damage accumulates over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese are normal aging processes, but nutrition can play a role in supporting eye health as you age. The antioxidants and nutrients in eye health supplements are designed to address some of these age related changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStarting eye health supplementation earlier rather than later makes sense. It's easier to maintain healthy tissues than to try to reverse damage that's already occurred.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuality and Manufacturing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIVIZON Max is manufactured in Canada following Good Manufacturing Practice standards.

Many people combine them with omega 3 fatty acids, which also support eye health, or with general multivitamins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you're taking medications, especially blood thinners, check with your healthcare provider before starting any new supplement. Some nutrients in eye health formulas can interact with certain medications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat to Know Before You Start\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEye health supplements are generally well tolerated. Some people notice slight changes in urine color from B vitamins, which is normal and harmless.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt takes time to see benefits. Unlike pain relievers that work immediately, nutritional supplements work gradually as nutrient levels build up in your tissues. Most research shows benefits after several months of consistent use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese supplements support eye health, but they're not treatments for eye diseases.

The body oil is rich in EPA and DHA but contains negligible amounts of fat-soluble vitamins A and D, as these vitamins are stored in the liver, not the flesh.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCod liver oil\u003c\/strong\u003e is extracted specifically from the liver of Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua). The liver is the primary storage organ for fat-soluble vitamins in fish, which is why cod liver oil naturally contains significant amounts of preformed vitamin A (retinol) and vitamin D (cholecalciferol) in addition to EPA and DHA. This combination of omega-3 fatty acids with naturally occurring vitamins A and D is the defining characteristic of cod liver oil and the reason it has been used as a nutritional supplement in Northern European and North Atlantic communities for centuries, particularly during winter months when dietary vitamin D from sunlight is limited.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe trade-off is that the high vitamin A content of cod liver oil requires careful attention to dose, particularly in pregnancy, where preformed retinol is teratogenic at doses above the safe upper limit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEPA and DHA: The Omega-3 Fatty Acids\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEPA (eicosapentaenoic acid, 20:5 n-3) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid, 22:6 n-3) are long-chain polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acids. Both are derived from alpha-linolenic acid (ALA, 18:3 n-3), the essential omega-3 fatty acid found in plant foods, through a series of elongation and desaturation steps. However, the conversion of ALA to EPA and DHA in the human body is inefficient (typically less than 5 to 10% for EPA and less than 1% for DHA), making direct dietary sources of EPA and DHA from marine foods or supplements the most reliable way to maintain adequate tissue levels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEPA (49mg per softgel, 98mg per day at 2 softgels):\u003c\/strong\u003e EPA is the precursor to the 3-series prostaglandins, thromboxanes, and leukotrienes, a class of eicosanoids with anti-inflammatory properties. EPA competes with arachidonic acid (an omega-6 fatty acid) for the same enzymes (cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase), reducing the production of pro-inflammatory 2-series eicosanoids derived from arachidonic acid. EPA is also incorporated into cell membrane phospholipids, influencing membrane fluidity and cell signaling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDHA (56mg per softgel, 112mg per day at 2 softgels):\u003c\/strong\u003e DHA is the primary structural omega-3 fatty acid in the central nervous system. Approximately 97% of the omega-3 fatty acids in the brain are DHA, and approximately 93% of the omega-3 fatty acids in the retina are DHA. DHA is a major component of the phospholipid bilayer of neuronal cell membranes, where its six double bonds create a highly flexible molecular structure that influences membrane fluidity, receptor function, and signal transduction. DHA is particularly important during fetal brain and retinal development and in early infancy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote on omega-3 dose:\u003c\/strong\u003e At 2 softgels per day, this formula provides 98mg EPA and 112mg DHA, totaling 210mg of EPA and DHA combined. The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) recommends 250mg EPA and DHA per day for general health maintenance in adults. This formula provides a meaningful omega-3 contribution alongside its vitamin A and D content; those seeking higher omega-3 doses specifically may consider a concentrated fish oil supplement in addition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVitamin A: Naturally Occurring Preformed Retinol\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe vitamin A in cod liver oil is preformed retinol, the directly bioavailable form of vitamin A stored in the liver of the cod. Unlike beta-carotene (provitamin A found in plant foods), preformed retinol does not require conversion and is absorbed and utilized directly. Retinol is essential for vision (particularly night vision, as it is the precursor to 11-cis-retinal, the chromophore of rhodopsin in rod photoreceptors), immune function, cell differentiation, and reproduction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 5,000 IU (1,500mcg RAE) per softgel and 2 softgels per day, the daily vitamin A intake from this formula is 10,000 IU (3,000mcg RAE), which is at the tolerable upper intake level (UL) for adults established by Health Canada and the Institute of Medicine. The UL for preformed vitamin A in pregnancy is significantly lower (approximately 3,000 IU or 900mcg RAE per day), which is the basis for the pregnancy contraindication. Do not exceed the recommended dose, as chronic intake above the UL can cause hypervitaminosis A.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVitamin D: Naturally Occurring Cholecalciferol\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe vitamin D in cod liver oil is cholecalciferol (vitamin D3), the same form produced in human skin upon UV-B exposure. At 500 IU (12.5mcg) per softgel and 2 softgels per day, the daily vitamin D intake from this formula is 1,000 IU (25mcg), a commonly recommended supplemental dose for adults in Canada, where sunlight-derived vitamin D production is limited for much of the year. The tolerable upper intake level for vitamin D for adults is 4,000 IU (100mcg) per day; 1,000 IU is well within safe limits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFish Gelatin Softgel and Non-Medicinal Ingredients\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe softgel shell is made from piscine (fish-derived) gelatin rather than the bovine or porcine gelatin used in most softgel supplements.

Sourced from marigold flowers (Tagetes erecta), the gold standard botanical source for eye health carotenoids, this high-potency formula delivers 40mg of lutein and 5mg of zeaxanthin per capsule. In an era of unprecedented screen exposure, maintaining optimal macular pigment density through lutein and zeaxanthin supplementation is increasingly important for visual health and comfort. Health Canada approved (NPN 80136775), 100% plant-based, and manufactured in Canada, this formula provides comprehensive carotenoid support for the modern eye.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nutridom","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45889230864547,"sku":"N314","price":19.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0623\/6589\/2771\/files\/Lutein_40_mg_zeaxanthin_5_mg_marigold_extract_supplement_60_vegan_capsules.jpg?v=1773945412"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0623\/6589\/2771\/collections\/b4603e0ae84eaa8f3164ca99a8e76a76_d77c122b-0fde-4c46-9a80-a387b0566a20.jpg?v=1776274045","url":"https:\/\/nutridom.ca\/collections\/quantum-eye-support-vision-clarity-ocular-function.oembed","provider":"Nutridom","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
