The lUTEin bioavailability from egg is higher than that from other sources such as lutein, lute in ester supplements, and spinach, and this finding may have implications for dietary recommendations that may decrease the risk of certain diseases, e.g., ARMD.

Reviewed studies were heterogeneous and lacked the methodologic rigor to draw any conclusions regarding the effects of dietary cholesterol on CVD risk, and carefully adjusted and well-conducted cohort studies would be useful to identify the relative effects.

Macular pigment optical density (MPOD) is directly related to dietary intake of lutein and zeaxanthin but even more strongly to serum concentrations, which may reflect unmeasured physical and medical factors that influence the uptake, distribution, and utilization of lutenin and zexanthin.
