Product Information
Why is beta-carotene important?
Beta-carotene is a carotenoid, a plant pigment responsible for the rich colours of orange and green vegetables. It is a vital antioxidant that helps protect cells against free radical damage, while also acting as a precursor to vitamin A. Vitamin A supports healthy vision, skin, and immune function. Since free radicals are generated by everyday processes like breathing, exercise, stress, and exposure to pollution or UV light, maintaining a good intake of antioxidants such as beta-carotene is key for overall health.
What is Solgar Natural Source Oceanic Beta-Carotene 7mg?
Solgar Natural Source Oceanic Beta-Carotene 7mg provides one of the purest natural sources of beta-carotene, derived from the micro-algae Dunaliella salina. This unique algae produces not only beta-carotene but also other beneficial carotenoids including alpha-carotene, lutein, zeaxanthin, and cryptoxanthin. Each softgel delivers a potent 7mg dose, offering reliable antioxidant support to help minimise oxidative stress and support healthy ageing.
