Product Overview:

Beta-Carotene is a naturally occurring carotenoid that is widely used as both a natural colorant and a nutrient supplement. It is the compound responsible for the vibrant orange color of many fruits and vegetables, including carrots, pumpkins, and sweet potatoes. Beta-Carotene is a powerful antioxidant and a precursor to Vitamin A, which plays a crucial role in maintaining vision, skin health, and immune function.

As a natural alternative to synthetic colorants, Beta-Carotene is favored by health-conscious consumers and food manufacturers seeking to create clean-label products. It is approved for use in a wide range of food, beverage, and cosmetic applications, offering both color stability and health benefits.

• Rich Antioxidant Properties: Beta-Carotene is a potent antioxidant that helps fight free radicals in the body, promoting overall health and supporting the immune system.
• Source of Vitamin A: Beta-Carotene is a provitamin A, meaning it can be converted into Vitamin A in the body, which is vital for eye health, skin maintenance, and immune function.
• Versatile Colorant: Beta-Carotene imparts a rich orange color to food and beverages, making it ideal for products like juices, dairy, baked goods, and candies. It is heat-stable and pH-stable, ensuring consistent color throughout processing and storage.
