Beta-carotene is a member of the carotenoids, which are highly pigmented (red, orange, yellow), fat-soluble compounds naturally
present in many fruits, grains, oils, and vegetables (green plants, carrots, sweet potatoes, squash, spinach, apricots, and green
peppers). 
Alpha, beta, and gamma carotene are considered provitamins because they can be converted to active vitamin A.

Beta-carotene is the molecule that gives carrots their orange colour. It is part of a family of chemicals called the carotenoids, which are found in many fruit and vegetables, as well as some animal products such as egg yolks. Biologically, beta carotene is most important as the precursor of vitamin A. It also has anti-oxidant properties and may help in preventing cancer and other diseases. 

β-Carotene is one of the carotenoids, an orange yellow lipid soluble compound that is the most common and stable natural pigment in nature. It belongs to natural chemicals and mainly comes from natural foods such as green plants and yellow and orange fruits.

INTRODUCTION:
 

Beta-carotene is the molecule that gives carrots their orange colour.It is part of a family of chemicals called the carotenoids, which are found in many fruit and vegetables, as well as some animal products such as egg yolks. Biologically, beta-carotene is most important as the precursor of vitamin A.It also has anti-oxidant properties and may help in preventing cancer and other diseases.

Beta Carotene is also known as a provitamin because it can be converted in our body into vitamin A after oxidative cleavage by beta-carotene 15, 150-dioxygenase. In plants, beta-carotene, acts as an anti-oxidant and neutralizes singlet oxygen radicals formed during photosynthesis.

 

FUNTION:

1. Beta carotene natural has received a lot of attention as potential anti-cancer and anti-aging phytochemical.

2. Beta-carotene is a powerful antioxidant, protecting the cells of the body from damage caused by free radicals. Studies       indicate that diets low in beta-carotene can increase the body's susceptibility to damage from free radicals, resulting in an   increased risk of chronic diseases like heart disease and cancers.

3. Beta-carotene supplements may help reduce sun induced skin damage.
4. β-carotene improves the physical fitness and strength of the elderly.
5. β-carotene prevents people who are sensitive to the sun from getting sunburned.
6. Beta-carotene prevents the deterioration of a type of arthritis called osteoarthritis.
7. β-carotene prevents bronchitis and dyspnea in smokers.
8. β-carotene reduces pregnancy-related symptoms after childbirth in malnourished women.
