How much Zeaxanthin should you take?
SuppScore grades doses across evidence zones rather than against a single recommended figure. Scored information, not a recommendation.
- Zone 10 to 1 mg per dayLow dose
- Zone 21 to 2 mg per dayGeneral maintenance dose
- Zone 32 to 2 mg per dayFor deficiency or elevated need
- Zone 52 to 12 mg per dayPractitioner-grade dose
- Zone 512 to 18 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.
