Organic Beta Carotene
Beta carotene is a provitamin A carotenoid found naturally in fruits and vegetables. It is an antioxidant and is converted by the body into vitamin A, essential for vision, immune function, and skin health. The 'organic' designation refers to its cultivation without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. The FDA considers beta carotene safe as a food ingredient and dietary supplement.
