FloraGLO ® Lutein and OPTISHARP ®
Zeaxanthin can help all winter sports fans
improve performance during leisure time,
training and championships.
In addition to the benefits they provide to
people practicing winter sports FloraGLO ®
Lutein and OPTISHARP ® Zeaxanthin can also
help improve twilight vision and reduce
sensitivity to the glare of bright light. This
confirmed by recent scientific studies.
Consuming lutein and zeaxanthin is not only
important when enjoying winter sports, but also
when driving at night, or at any time when our
eyes are required to concentrate, like during a
day’s work at the computer, for instance.

Breakthrough study
strengthens health claims
of resVida ® from DSM
Nutritional Products
An independent study conducted by the
University of Maastricht suggests that
resveratrol may improve the metabolic
health of individuals at risk of developing
metabolic syndrome.
Published in the peer-reviewed scientific
journal Cell Metabolism, this breakthrough
study indicates that resveratrol has the
potential to combat conditions such as
diabetes and cardiovascular disorders.
Resveratrol is a powerful antioxidant found
in black grapes that helps prevent free
radical damage, which can lead to the
premature aging of cells. DSM Nutritional
Products produces an extremely pure form
of this naturally occurring health agent
under the trade mark resVida ® .

Vitamin A distribution
partnership with Vitamin
Angels
Sight and Life is extending its partnership
with Vitamin Angels for the distribution of

Sight and Life will transfer to Vitamin
Angels the responsibility for both the
management of direct distribution of
vitamin A and Sight and Life’s initiatives
intended to catalyze locally sustainable
vitamin A supply and distribution systems.
Sight and Life Director Klaus Kraemer
comments, “By extending the partnering
with Vitamin Angels, Sight and Life
further strengthens local supply and
distribution capacity, mobilizes
communities and governments, fosters the
creation of public-private partnerships to
combat, in particular, vitamin A deficiency,
and improves the lives of millions of
children and women.”

Future” made another thing clear: DSM talks to
customers in the language of consumers.
