Product Description

Beta-Carotene

Beta carotene is a plant-based pigment and a provitamin A carotenoid. The body converts it into vitamin A, which supports eye health, immune function, and skin health. Found in orange, yellow, and dark green vegetables (e.g., carrots, sweet potatoes, spinach), it also acts as an antioxidant, helping protect cells from damage. Often used as a dietary supplement or natural food coloring.

Beta-Carotene

Converts to Vitamin A:
Acts as a provitamin A source, supporting eye health (e.g., vision, retina protection), immune function, and cell growth.
Powerful Antioxidant:
Neutralizes harmful free radicals, reducing oxidative stress and lowering risk of chronic diseases (e.g., heart disease, certain cancers).
Supports Skin Health:
Aids in skin repair, protects against UV damage, and promotes a healthy complexion by maintaining skin elasticity and moisture.
Boosts Immune System:
Enhances immune function by supporting the production of white blood cells, helping the body fight infections and illnesses.
Natural Anti-Inflammatory:
Helps reduce inflammation in the body, supporting overall wellness and potentially easing symptoms of inflammatory conditions.

Beta-Carotene

Dietary Supplements:
Used in oral supplements to provide provitamin A, supporting eye health, immune function, and skin health, especially for individuals with insufficient vitamin A intake.
Fortified Foods & Beverages:
Added to cereals, milk, juices, and snacks as a nutritional fortifier to enhance vitamin A content, commonly used in processed foods to address nutrient deficiencies.
Natural Food Coloring:
Serves as a safe, plant-based food dye, providing yellow to orange hues in products like margarine, soups, sauces, and confectionery (e.g., gummy candies).
Cosmetics & Skincare:
Included in creams, lotions, and serums for its antioxidant properties, helping protect skin from environmental damage, promote hydration, and support anti-aging benefits.
Animal Feed Additive:
Used in livestock and poultry feed to supply provitamin A, supporting growth, reproductive health, and immune function in animals, particularly in commercial farming.
