The formulation is half what is recommended in the AREDS2 Study, Your dosage is only 1 daily. Is there any reason why it is not 2 daily to fall in step with the AREDS2 recommendations?

Hi, Just wondering why you put copper in the formulation? Excess iron and copper oxidizes in the body and contribute to Alzheimer's dementia. Apparently we get enough copper in the diet and putting it in supplements is excessive...

I appreciate your acknowledgement of my inquiry for Macu-vision Plus, thankyou.

Hi
It was suggested that my husband take one of these (Macuvision or Luteinvision), however he was a smoker previously and I undestand that one of these medications should not be taken by ex-smokers. Can you tell e which one this is?
Thanks, J'nette
