Beta Carotene
Softgel Capsules
Nature’s Powerful
Vegetable Antioxidant
Beta
Carotene is the most potent form of Carotene available. It is
present in dark-green, leafy vegetables, carrots and yellow, red
fruits (such as peaches and apricots).
Beta Carotene protects the mucus membranes of mouth, nose, throat
and lungs. It also helps protect Vitamin C from oxidation, which
enables it to perform at optimum efficiency.
Beta Carotene, which your body converts to active Vitamin A, but
which is derived from vegetable and
fruit
sources, does not carry the toxicity risk of Vitamin A which comes
from fish liver sources. You can take higher amounts of Beta
Carotene in supplemental form, 10 to 15 mg or 15,000 iu to 25,000 iu
per day, without risk.
Symptoms of deficiency: acne, dry dull hair, dry skin, fatigue, poor
growth, insomnia, thickened scaly skin on the palms and soles of the
feet, frequent infections, night blindness, weight loss, dry eyes
(progressing to ulceration of the cornea if untreated) and dry
mouth.
No Sugar, Salt,
Starch, Preservatives or
Artificial Coloring Added.
