Antioxidant that can help prostate health, vision, immune function + many more








Natural health enthusiasts have focused for years on beta-carotene, a carotenoid found naturally in fish oil, carrots and other sources. Its antioxidant properties make it a boon to overall health. But many members of the carotenoid family have been shown to have a positive influence on health. For example, lycopene supports prostate health, lutein offers a variety of health benefits (see above), zeaxanthin supports immune function, and so on.
Although individual carotenoids offer distinctive health benefits, their synergistic effects when blended may increase their potency and range of benefits.



Benefits
• Quenches dangerous free radicals.
• Supports prostate health (lycopene).
• Supports vision and helps protect against UV damage to the eyes and skin (lutein).
• Supports immune function (zeaxanthin).
• Supports the heart and circulatory system.

Nature's Sunshine has created a special blend of carotenoids mimicking the ratios in which they are found in body tissues.


Scientific Information
Increased consumption of fruits and vegetables has been associated with a reduced risk of many diseases, including heart disease, eye and skin conditions, joint problems as well as some degenerative diseases. The pigments responsible for the coloration of these fruits and vegetables appear to offer a host of protective benefits to the body. Many of these pigments are found in Carotenoid Blend.

Each capsule of Carotenoid blend contains 80% of the E.C. RDA of Vitamin A as beta-carotene (4000IU). Other carotenoids included are betacarotene, alpha-carotene, lutein, lycopene, zeaxanthin, cryptoxanthin, phytoene, phytofluene and astaxanthin.
