  • Zeaxanthin

    Zeaxanthin is one of the most common carotenoid alcohols found in nature. It is important in the xanthophyll cycle. Synthesized in plants and some micro-organisms, it is the pigment that gives paprika (made from bell peppers), corn, saffron, wolfberries, and many other plants and microbes their characteristic color.

    The name (pronounced zee-uh-zan'-thin) is derived from Zea mays (common yellow maize corn, in which zeaxanthin provides the primary yellow pigment), plus xanthos, the Greek word for "yellow" (see xanthophyll).

    Xanthophylls such as zeaxanthin are found in highest quantity in the leaves of most green plants, where they act to modulate light energy and perhaps serve as a non-photochemical quenching agent to deal with triplet chlorophyll (an excited form of chlorophyll) which is overproduced at high light levels during photosynthesis.

    Animals derive zeaxanthin from a plant diet. Zeaxanthin is one of the two primary xanthophyll carotenoids contained within the retina of the eye. Within the central macula, zeaxanthin is the dominant component, whereas in the peripheral retina, lutein predominates.

    Out Of Control

    by: U2

    Monday morning
    Eighteen years of dawning
    I say how long
    You say how long
    It was one dull morning
    Woke the world with bawling
    I was so sad (so sad)
    It was so bad
    I was of a feeling it was out of control
    I had the opinion it was out of control
    Boys and Girls
    Go to the school and girls
    They make children
    Not like this one
    I was of a feeling it was out of control
    I had the opinion it was out of control
    I was of a feeling it was out of control
    I had the opinion it was out of control
    (Out of control)
    I fought fate
    There's blood on the garden gate
    The man said childhood
    It's in his childhood
    One day I'll die
    The choice will not be mine
    Will it be too late
    You can't fight it
    I was of a feeling it was out of control
