What is Bio-Lutein™?
MedVitál® Bio-Lutein™ is the patented and clinically studied form of lutein delivered in Carocelle™ for superior bioavailability. Lutein is a natural carotenoid found in green leafy vegetables offering antioxidant protection for eye health and skin health, but standard lutein supplements have low bioavailability. Based on the research of cardiologist Dr. Ivan Petyaev, MD PhD, Carocelle™’s natural enrobing technology significantly enhances lutein’s bioavailability in supplement form.
What Does It Do?
Healthy Eyes and Skin+
Lutein is a powerful natural antioxidant found in green leafy vegetables, an important part of the Mediterranean diet. In the body, lutein is known to concentrate in the macula of the eye to support eye health and also in the skin to provide antioxidant protection and to support healthy skin.+
Lycotec’s patented Carocelle™ process starts with plant-based lutein and zeaxantin and builds natural micelle structures around lutein molecules to enrobe them in lipid coating at the microscopic level for significantly enhanced absorption. In clinical tests, MedVitál® Bio-Lutein™ was shown to have superior bioavailability when compared to regular lutein supplements.
Why Bio-Lutein™ Matters
Superior Bioavailability
Lutein’s role in eye and in protecting skin from sun-induced damage are well known. Researcher and practicing cardiologist Dr. Ivan Petyaev, MD PhD invented the Carocelle® technology that unlocks lutein’s potential through enhanced bioavailability, so that your body absorbs more lutein.

Bio-Lutein™ uses the patented Carocelle™ process to build natural micelle structures made of lipids around plant-based lutein and zeaxanthin. At the microscopic level, these micelles coat the lutein and zeaxanthin and act as cargo molecules through the digestion process for significantly enhanced absorption. In clinical tests, MedVitál® Bio-Lutein™ was shown to have superior bioavailability compared to standard lutein supplements.
