Beta-Carotene
Beta-Carotene is a natural pigment in the carotenoid class, found in orange, yellow, and dark green foods like carrots, pumpkin, spinach, and sweet potatoes. In addition to its presence in foods, it can be synthesized and used as a supplement or natural coloring. It is a precursor to vitamin A, which is essential for eye health, skin, and the immune system. With antioxidant properties, beta-carotene helps protect cells from damage caused by free radicals, and its absorption is enhanced in the presence of fats.
Benefits
