Lutein (a carotenoid vitamin), is naturally present in eggs. It is often called “the eye vitamin” because it is used to prevent eye diseases including age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Lutein is mainly found in leafy green vegetables, but egg yolks are rich in Lutein which is easily absorbed by our bodies. Our hens that produce Laid With Love eggs, are fed on marigold extract which is rich in Lutein – that’s why these eggs have a deliciously golden yolk.
