[QUOTE="bonerp, post: 231833, member: 1216"] that is a lot of Bilberry - and Bilberry can give you restless nights so I wouldnt be taking any within a few hours of bedtime! I'd research and not rely solely on what others tell you on these forums then you can make a more informed decision. 6mg is normal intake requirement for Lutein. Whether 50mg is more effective is up for debate and questionable. Not always increasing the amount of supplements is good for you... Personally I take 5000mg bilberry just twice a day and am taking 50mg lutein only in the last couple of weeks as I have had a large bleed - i want to see if it actually helps or hinders recovery. If I see no difference I will go back to these: Previously Ive taken 10mg Lutein and 400mg Bilberry. I've still had a bleed tho...its not a miracle cure and large doses can do more harm than good so try at your risk. These amounts are above RDA's. [/QUOTE]
