Beta Carotene is the most potent form of Carotene available. It is present in dark-green, leafy vegetables, carrots and yellow and red fruits (such as peaches and apricots). Beta Carotene is a natural diet nutrition product that 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.
