How much Lutein should you take?

SuppScore grades doses across evidence zones rather than against a single recommended figure. Scored information, not a recommendation.

1. Zone 10 to 2 mg per dayLow dose
2. Zone 22 to 5 mg per dayGeneral maintenance dose
3. Zone 35 to 6 mg per dayFor deficiency or elevated need
4. Zone 56 to 20 mg per dayPractitioner-grade dose
5. Zone 520 to 30 mg per dayPractitioner-grade dose

Zones describe what the evidence supports at a dose. They are not advice on what to take, and they do not replace a conversation with a doctor or pharmacist.
