Plasma lutein concentrations are related to dietary intake, but unrelated to dietary saturated fat or cognition in young children.

Although it is clear that all human plasma and tissue lutein must originate from the diet, current information relating lutein intake to plasma lutein in adults varies from non-significant to highly significant correlations ( 16 – 21 ) , with no correlations in children ( 22 , 23 ) .

There were no significant relationships between lutein intake and any child or family characteristic recorded ( P > 0·05), except that lutein intakes showed a trend to be higher among children with no siblings than children with one or more than one siblings, with medians of 799 (5th–95th percentile range 259–4897, n 28), 697 (5th–95th percentile range 264–2942, n 97) and 593 (5th–95th percentile range 173–1259, n 24) μg/d, respectively ( P = 0·08).
