Vega Natural Beta Carotene (Dunaliella Salina) 60 V-caps
Dunaliella Salina is a single cell oceanic pink algae, which provides a natural source of Beta Carotene and Mixed Carotenoids (Alpha Carotene, Cryptoxanthin, Lutein, Zeaxanthin). Synthetic Beta Carotene, found in most supplements, does not appear to possess all the beneficial antioxidant activity that the natural nutrient has, it is therefore very important to supplement with natural Beta Carotene to obtain maximum benefits. Natural Beta Carotene is also a vegetarian source of Vitamin A and is safe for pregnant women, as it is converted to this vitamin in the liver and intestines as and when the body requires it. Vitamin A is essential for a healthy immune system, normal cell reproduction, growth and repair of tissues. It is important for healthy bones, teeth, eyes, hair, skin and maintains the mucous membranes of the respiratory, digestive and urinary tract. This product has been formulated with Vega Phytoantioxidant Base, a unique natural blend of Apple, Mixed Wild Red Berry Concentrate and Prebiotic Acacia Gum. It is used as a filler in the formulation to bulk out the active ingredients and has been specially designed to support cardiovascular, digestive, immune and vision health.
