BETA CAROTENE

DESCRIPTION : Beta Carotene is purified from carrots.

BIOCHEMISTRY : Beta Carotene (or pro vitamin A) is the compound which colors vegetables yellow or orange. Beta Carotene, one of over 400 identified carotenes, protects plants from oxidative damage during photosynthesis. Beta Carotene consists of two molecules of vitamin A linked to each other. The body converts Beta Carotene into vitamin A as needed. This conversion is inhibited in diabetics.

PHYSIOLOGY : Beta Carotene acts as an antioxidant, trapping and neutralizing singlet oxygen molecules and other free-radicals, which can damage the body's cellular membranes, lipids, proteins, and vitamins. In addition, Beta Carotene enhances the immune system by stimulating the activity of interferon.

INDICATIONS : Cancer, Atherosclerosis, Diabetes, Cataracts, and many other chronic degenerative diseases have been linked to free-radical damage. Numerous epidemiological studies and clinical trials have shown that people who consume high quantities of Beta Carotene have a lowered incidence of cancer and other chronic diseases.

TOXICITY, CAUTIONS & CONTRA-INDICATIONS : No toxicity known. The body only uses Beta Carotene as needed. Excess consumption will lead to a harmless yellowish/orange tint of the skin.
