What is beta-carotene?
Beta-carotene belongs to the group of carotenoids – secondary plant compounds that are found in particularly high concentrations in orange-colored vegetables and algae. In the body, beta-carotene is converted into vitamin A as needed, which helps prevent an excessive intake of vitamin A. This property makes it a particularly safe source of provitamin A.
