Product Features & Advantages

Dual-Functionality: Color & Nutrition

Unlike synthetic yellow colorants, our lutein powder provides vibrant coloration while delivering documented health benefits, particularly for eye health, making it a value-added ingredient for functional products.

Superior Bioavailability

Our extraction process maximizes the bioavailability of lutein, ensuring that the beneficial compounds can be effectively absorbed and utilized by the body when consumed.

Light and Heat Stability

Although sensitive to extreme conditions, our specially formulated lutein powder demonstrates good stability under normal food processing conditions, maintaining its color and potency.

Synergistic Formulation Potential

Can be effectively combined with other CNCSBIO ingredients such as L Theanine for cognitive health formulations or Psyllium Husk Powder for digestive wellness products, creating comprehensive nutritional solutions.

How to Use Lutein Powder

  1. Determine Application Purpose: Decide whether the primary use is for coloring, nutritional fortification, or both. This will determine the appropriate dosage.
  2. Calculate Dosage: For coloring: typically 0.1%-0.5% by weight. For nutritional benefits: follow recommended daily values (often 10-20mg lutein per serving).
  3. Incorporate into Formulation: For dry mixes: blend evenly with other dry ingredients. For lipid-based products: disperse in oil phase. For aqueous systems: use our water-dispersible version or pre-mix with emulsifiers.
  4. Consider Processing Conditions: Minimize exposure to high heat, light, and oxygen during processing to preserve lutein integrity. Add post-heat processing when possible.
  5. Package Appropriately: Use opaque packaging to protect against light degradation, and consider oxygen scavengers for extended shelf life.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is the difference between lutein esters and free lutein?

Lutein esters are the natural form found in marigold flowers, while free lutein is the form naturally present in the human eye. Our saponification process converts esters to free lutein, which research suggests may have better bioavailability.

What is the recommended daily dosage of lutein?

Studies suggest benefits at doses of 10-20mg per day for eye health, though specific product formulations should determine appropriate serving sizes.

Is your lutein powder suitable for vegetarian and vegan products?

Yes, our lutein is plant-derived from marigold flowers and is completely suitable for vegetarian and vegan applications.

How stable is lutein in various applications?

Lutein is sensitive to light, heat, and oxygen. However, with proper formulation techniques and packaging (opaque, oxygen-barrier containers), excellent stability can be achieved throughout the product's shelf life.

What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?

The MOQ for standard lutein powder is 25kg. For custom formulations or concentrations, please contact our sales team for specific MOQ information.

Do you provide technical support for product development?

Yes, our technical team offers comprehensive support from formulation advice to stability testing recommendations to ensure successful product development with our lutein powder.

Can lutein be used in products for children?

Yes, lutein is naturally present in breast milk and many foods. However, specific product formulations for children should be developed in consultation with nutritional experts and in compliance with local regulations.
