- Description
-
- CarotenAll® contains alpha and beta-carotene extracted from palm fruit (Caromin®) in ratios identical to carrots. One softgel of CarotenAll® provides greater amounts of the major carotenoids (Alpha-, Beta-Carotene, Lutein, Zeaxanthin and Lycopene) than 5–6 servings of fruits and vegetables.
- Lycopene is an antioxidant carotenoid extracted from GMO-free tomatoes by Lyc-O-Mato®. Lycopene supports healthy prostate function and protects against damage from free radical singlet oxygen.*
- Lutein is an antioxidant carotenoid that occurs in nature with zeaxanthin. Dietary lutein and zeaxanthin concentrate in the eye's macula and lens and protect these tissues from oxidative stress.* Astaxanthin is a highly potent antioxidant carotenoid found in seafood and algae that protects lipids from peroxidation.*

Beta-Carotene
Beta-Carotene- Reliable and relatively consistent scientific data showing a substantial health benefit.
- Contradictory, insufficient, or preliminary studies suggesting a health benefit or minimal health benefit.
- For an herb, supported by traditional use but minimal or no scientific evidence. For a supplement, little scientific support.
Our proprietary "Star-Rating" system was developed to help you easily understand the amount of scientific support behind each supplement in relation to a specific health condition. While there is no way to predict whether a vitamin, mineral, or herb will successfully treat or prevent associated health conditions, our unique ratings tell you how well these supplements are understood by the medical community, and whether studies have found them to be effective for other people.
For over a decade, our team has combed through thousands of research articles published in reputable journals. To help you make educated decisions, and to better understand controversial or confusing supplements, our medical experts have digested the science into these three easy-to-follow ratings. We hope this provides you with a helpful resource to make informed decisions towards your health and well-being.

Used for Amount Why Leukoplakia150,000 IU twice per week 
[3 stars] Beta-carotene, the most widely used supplement in the treatment of leukoplakia, has been shown in studies to increase remission rate.Lung Cancer in NonsmokersEat more carrots [3 stars] Beta-carotene supplementation appears to reduce cancer risk in nonsmokers. Smokers should avoid beta-carotene supplements, including the amounts found in multivitamins.Night BlindnessIf deficient: 10,000 to 25,000 IU daily [3 stars] Night blindness may be an early sign of vitamin A deficiency.

Supplementing with beta-carotene, an antioxidant, protects against free-radical damage and may prevent these attacks.Immune Function25,000 to 100,000 IU per day for nonsmokers only [2 stars] Beta-carotene has been shown to increase immune cell numbers and activity. It has also been shown to enhance cancer-fighting immune functions in healthy people.Pancreatic Insufficiency9,000 IU daily [2 stars] Taking antioxidant supplements, such as beta-carotene, may lessen pain and prevent recurrences of pancreatitis.Sunburn6 mg daily of natural beta-carotene during periods of high sun exposure [2 stars] Supplementing with beta-carotene may help protect the skin from ultraviolet rays and sunburn.Age-Related Cognitive Decline50 mg every other day
