1% Beta Carotene Powder Cold Water Soluble

What is Beta Carotene Powder?

Beta-carotene (C40H56) is one of the carotenoids and an orange-coloured fat-soluble compound. It is the most ubiquitous and stable natural pigment in nature. Many natural foods, such as green vegetables, sweet potatoes, carrots, spinach, papaya, and mango, are rich in beta carotene.

H. Wachenroder crystallized beta carotene from carrot root in 1831 and proposed the name "carotene". After that, three kinds of carotenoid isomers, α, β, and γ, were discovered, among which beta carotene has the highest activity and is the most important. It has the structural characteristics of conjugated polyene and is a very important natural product. Pure β-carotene is a deep orange-red crystal with metallic luster, insoluble in water, and soluble in organic solvents. In the body can be small intestinal mucosa or liver oxygenase action into two molecules of vitamin A.

Benefits:

Protecting the Eyes

Research has shown that a diet rich in beta carotene powder and other carotenoids can lead to a lower risk of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Beta-carotene can also help keep the cornea (the surface of the eye) healthy and moist, optimizing the health of the eye. Vitamin A can help optimize night or low light vision as it helps the eye convert light into signals sent to the brain. As a powerful antioxidant, beta-carotene helps relieve oxidative stress on the eyes caused by blue light from device screens and UV radiation. Vitamin A strengthens the immune system and helps reduce inflammatory eye reactions and the risk of developing eye infections.

Improvement of Immunity

Beta-carotene has the effect of enhancing the immune function of the body. It can enhance the vitality of B lymphocytes, increase the capacity of CD cells, and promote the production of antibodies by B lymphocytes. It promotes the secretion of lysozyme-like substances by neutrophilic leukocytes and the differentiation of phagocytes in the body. All these effects are based on the antioxidant effect of β-carotene.

Improve Skin Condition

Vitamin A is necessary to maintain the integrity of all epithelial tissues, and beta-carotene can be converted into vitamin A. Therefore, a certain amount of beta carotene powder intake can avoid skin diseases such as flaky skin, keratinization, epidermal cell scleroderma, and polykeratotic haematochezia, etc. Beta-carotene also has a good effect on the stability of the cell membrane. It can also be used to treat the inflammatory disease "solaritis" caused by sun exposure.

Improve Cardiovascular Function

Beta-carotene has a good antioxidant effect and can assist in improving oxidative damage to DNA and lipoproteins. It reduces the production of low-density lipoprotein and promotes the increase of high-density lipoprotein. Thus, it can prevent and improve the effect of atherosclerosis and reduce the incidence and aggravation of cardiovascular diseases.

Antioxidant

Beta carotene has a strong antioxidant capacity and can effectively remove free radicals that damage the structure of cell membranes. Thus, the cell structure is stabilized and the body functions normally.

Applications:

In the Food Field:

Beta carotene powder is used as an edible oil-soluble pigment. Its own colour can cover all shades from red to yellow depending on the concentration. It has a wide range of applications in the food industry. It is very suitable for the development of oily and protein products, such as margarine, capsules, fish paste, vegetarian products, and colouring of instant noodles. The microencapsulated beta carotene powder can be converted into a water-soluble pigment, which can be used in many food products.

For Health Products:

Beta carotene can scavenge free radicals in the body, prevent and repair cellular damage, inhibit DNA oxidation, and boost the body's immune system. As an ingredient, beta carotene powder is added to health products.
