Score 72.0

An affordable daily supplement combining eye-specific carotenoids (Lutein, Zeaxanthin) with essential vitamins (C, E) and minerals (Zinc, Copper) to support eye health and provide antioxidant benefits.

Analysis

21st Century's Healthy Eyes SuperVision2 is formulated primarily for eye health, featuring a blend of Lutein and Zeaxanthin, which are carotenoids crucial for macular health. It augments these with antioxidant vitamins C and E, and essential minerals Zinc and Copper. These ingredients collectively support vision, protect against oxidative stress, and contribute to overall cellular health. The product aims to leverage the benefits of these nutrients for general health, immunity, and anti-aging properties, extending beyond just ocular support. The low price per serving makes it an accessible option for daily supplementation.

Pros
  • Contains a beneficial combination of Lutein and Zeaxanthin, key carotenoids for macular health.
  • Includes essential antioxidants like Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and Zinc, offering broader health benefits.
  • Extremely cost-effective with a very low price per serving, making it accessible for consistent use.
  • Includes copper alongside zinc, which is important to prevent copper deficiency when supplementing zinc.
Cons
  • Dosages of Lutein (5mg) and Zeaxanthin (1mg) are lower than some clinically studied amounts for specific eye conditions (e.g., AREDS2 formulation typically uses 10mg Lutein and 2mg Zeaxanthin).
  • Uses less bioavailable forms of minerals, specifically Copper Oxide and Zinc Oxide, which may not be absorbed as efficiently as chelated forms.
  • Contains synthetic Vitamin E (DL-Alpha-Tocopheryl Acetate) instead of the more bioavailable natural D-Alpha Tocopherol.
Warnings
  • Individuals already supplementing with zinc or copper should monitor their total daily intake to avoid exceeding recommended upper limits, particularly with less bioavailable forms which can still accumulate over time.

Categories
Vitamin C 65.0
The product contains 250mg of Vitamin C as Ascorbic Acid, a standard and effective form. While this is a moderate dose and adequate for general support, many dedicated Vitamin C supplements offer higher dosages (500mg-1000mg) for more intensive immune or antioxidant support, placing this at a good but not outstanding level for this collection.
Copper 50.0
The product provides 1.00mg of Copper, which is a common dosage, especially when paired with Zinc to maintain mineral balance. However, the use of Copper Oxide is a less bioavailable form compared to chelated copper options available on the market, which may limit its absorption and effectiveness.
Goals
General Health 75.0
With a blend of essential vitamins (C, E) and minerals (Zinc, Copper), alongside Lutein and Zeaxanthin, this product contributes to overall cellular function and antioxidant defense, promoting general well-being. The inclusion of multiple micronutrients makes it a decent general health supplement.
Immunity 70.0
The product provides 250mg of Vitamin C and 10mg of Zinc, both well-known for their significant roles in supporting the immune system. While the zinc is in an oxide form, the presence of these two key nutrients still offers good foundational immune support.
Anti-Aging 68.0
The presence of potent antioxidants like Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Lutein, and Zeaxanthin helps combat free radicals, which are major contributors to cellular aging. This antioxidant protection is beneficial for slowing down age-related cellular damage, particularly in the eyes.
