Natural β-Carotene/Beta-Carotene, Palm Fruit or Dunaliella Salina Extract
β-Carotene is a major carotenoid and a vital precursor to Vitamin A. It is enzymatically cleaved into two molecules of Vitamin A within the liver and intestines, earning it the name “Provitamin A.” Beyond its role as a natural food colorant, it is widely used in supplements for its antioxidant properties and vision-support benefits.
