More specifically, the present invention relates to a chewing gum and also relates to a method for preparing the chewing gum. 【Background technique】 [0002] Lutein is the main component of the macular pigment of the human eye. Blue light has the highest energy of all visible light that can reach the retina and has the strongest damage to the macular area. Lutein can filter out blue light. High-energy blue light can also induce free radicals and damage optic nerve cells. Lutein uses quenched singlet oxygen to capture active oxygen free radicals and plays an anti-oxidant effect. Studies have shown that regular consumption of foods rich in carotenoids, especially lutein, can increase the level of lutein in the blood when increasing the intake of lutein in the diet, and reduce the degeneration of age-related spots (referred to as AMD, 1 This is a disease that reduces the level of the macula due ...
