I dont see natural astaxanthin [from co2 extract of haematococcus pluvialis algae] listed as it does on the life? extension website

Life Extension sells two different versions of macuguard. One has the astaxanthin and the other does not. This is the one without it.

I don't see saffron listed as an ingredient. Am I missing something?

Here is the full list of ingredients: Serving Size 1 softgel Amount Per Serving MacuGuard® proprietary blend 173 mg Phospholipids, marigold extract (flower) providing 10 mg free lutein, 4 mg meso-zeaxanthin & trans-zeaxanthin, mixed carotenoids providing 1.24 mg α-carotene Saffron extract (stigma) 20 mg C3G (cyanidin-3-glucoside) from European black currant extract (fruit) 2.2 mg Other ingredients: extra virgin olive oil, gelatin, glycerin, safflower oil, beeswax, palm oil, purified water, acacia gum, annatto color, potato maltodextrin. Non-GMO LuteinPlus® and Mz® are registered trademarks of NutriProducts Ltd., UK, licensed under U.S. Patent 8,623,428.

Of the 4 mg zeaxanthin, how much of it is meso?

I called LE on July 8, 2018. I was told 2.8mg of meso-zeaxanthin and 1.2mg of trans zeaxanthin. I was disappointed, but then again, saffron is expensive, so they had to control the price somewhere!

Why don’t you ship to Hawaii, it’s the US?

You need to take that up with Amazon. Why they would send me that question is a mystery to me.
