Carotenoids and our health

Carotenoids are natural pigments found in plants, algae, and photosynthetic bacteria, responsible for creating the vibrant hues of yellow, red, and orange seen in various fruits and vegetables. Not only do these pigments contribute to the visual appeal of our food, but they also serve as antioxidants when consumed, offering health benefits. With over 600 distinct varieties identified, carotenoids play a crucial role in a balanced and colorful diet.


What do Carotenoids do?


The main function of carotenoids is to act as an antioxidant, effectively destroying the free radicals that pose harm to the body. Scientific research has established a clear link between diets rich in carotenoid-packed fruits and vegetables and a decreased risk of developing various conditions such as cancer, heart disease, and age-related degenerative diseases affecting the eyes and nervous system.


What if I don’t get enough Carotenoids?

Americans, as a whole, tend to consume an excessive amount of calories, saturated fats, added sugars, and sodium, while also facing dietary deficiencies from inadequate intake of essential food groups, such as fruits and vegetables. Surprisingly, just 1 in 10 Americans manage to meet the daily recommended servings of fruits and vegetables. Given the challenges of consistently incorporating 2 cups of fruits and 3 cups of vegetables into daily meals, dietary supplementation can play a beneficial role in bridging this nutritional gap. Here’s where Neolife can help.


Carotenoid Complex can bridge the gap

Hundreds of Pounds of Carotenoid Power in Every Bottle! When it comes to delivering pure carotenoid power, Carotenoid Complex puts hundreds of pounds in the palm of your hand. To deliver the total carotenoid power in a single bottle of the new Carotenoid Complex, you’d have to eat:

250 pounds or more of the raw vegetables and fruits it’s made from. Research shows that your body absorbs only 5-10% of the carotenoids in raw vegetables and fruits.

50 pounds or more of the steamed vegetables and fruits Carotenoid Complex is made from. Research shows food preparation affects carotenoid bioavailability. Steamed fruits and vegetables increase bioavailability 30-50%.

18 pounds or more of steamed and puréed fruits and vegetables (baby food). Steamed and puréed fruits and vegetables have the best bioavailability—up to 70%, which is the method of raw material preparation utilized in Carotenoid Complex.
