    Lutein and zeaxanthin concentrations in plasma after dietary supplementation with egg yolk. Handelman GJ, Nightingale ZD, Lichtenstein AH, Schaefer EJ, Blumberg JB. Am J Clin Nutr. 1999 Aug;70(2):247-51. PMID: 10426702 CONCLUSIONS: Egg yolk is a highly bioavailable source of lutein and zeaxanthin. The benefit of introducing these carotenoids into the diet with egg yolk is counterbalanced by potential LDL-cholesterol elevation from the added dietary cholesterol.
