What is β-Carotene?
β-Carotene is a carotenoid, a natural pigment found in green plants and yellow and orange fruits. It’s extremely safe and cannot be synthesized by the human body. A sufficient amount is required from daily food intake. However, for those with picky eating habits and those who don’t like fruit, adequate amounts may be difficult to obtain. For these individuals, it’s recommended to use a β-carotene supplement. Highassay provides high-quality, high-purity β-Carotene.
Benefits of β-Carotene
- Food safety is a growing concern for consumers, and the safety of natural pigments is gradually replacing synthetic pigments.
- Antioxidant: Eliminates peroxide free radicals, provides electrons, and protects cells.
- Skin and vision protection: Maintains normal skin, vision, and immune system function.
- Anti-aging: Promotes cellular metabolism, enhancing immunity and delaying aging.

Healthcare ProductsWe all know that damage to cellular DNA and protein can affect genetic material, accelerate cell aging, and ultimately accelerate human aging. β-Carotene can improve red blood cell activity and slow aging. β-carotene also has anti-cancer activity and can induce apoptosis in breast cancer cells. Because β-carotene is a precursor to vitamin A, it also provides essential vitamin A for the human body.
Food ProcessingA colorant. As a natural pigment, it’s highly safe and a Class A nutritional pigment. It’s widely found in plants and has low extraction costs. It’s also used in nutritional supplements, such as the β-carotene raw material provided by Highassay. We welcome your interest.
Cosmeticsβ-carotene can improve skin tone and reduce the risk of sunburn, and is commonly used in sunscreen and skincare products.
Animal FeedProviding animals with essential nutrients can reduce disease risk and promote growth.
Storage Conditions of β-Carotene
Like most vitamins, β-carotene is unstable. During production, transportation, and storage, it must be protected from light, heat, and air (to prevent oxidation). To protect the β-carotene, we recommend filling qualified containers with nitrogen. Highassay maintains a comprehensive supply chain system to provide customers with the highest quality raw materials.
β-Carotene VS β-Carotene-15
β-Carotene is a naturally occurring compound in plants and a precursor to vitamin A. β-Carotene-15 is an enzyme that helps convert β-carotene into a vitamin A intermediate.
