Beta-carotene is a precursor of vitamin A, which the body converts into active vitamin A when needed.
Vitamin A is important for vision, skin, mucous membranes and the immune system, among other things.
Many people use beta-carotene before summer to get a deeper tan.

The product contains beta-carotene in concentrated form. The amount in one capsule (20 mg) is equivalent to the amount of beta-carotene in 1.29 kg of carrots.
The beta-carotene in Helhetshälsa ‘Carotene’ comes from the mushroom Blakeslea trispora.

What is beta-carotene?

Beta-carotene belongs to the carotenoids. Carotenoids are colorful substances found in fruits and vegetables. It is the carotenoids that give plants their red, orange and yellow colors. Carotenoid-rich foods include carrot, pumpkin, apricot, papaya and peach. Carotenoids are also found in green plants, such as broccoli, spinach, nettles, arugula lettuce and green peas, but are hidden by the green color.
