This Formula Is Based on the Latest Anti-Aging Research
Every single active ingredient contained in this formula is backed by multiple clinical research studies. We have done our homework, and we are proud to detail below the clinical research data that supports the inclusion of every active ingredient in this formula.
Beta-Carotene
Beta-carotene is a member of the carotenoid family, which also includes lutein, lycopene and zeaxanthin. Carotenoids are a class of highly pigmented fat-soluble antioxidants found in plants. While all have antioxidant power, beta-carotene is a precursor to vitamin A. Beta-carotene is converted to vitamin A in the liver. The conversion of beta-carotene to vitamin A is dependent on several biological factors, so each individual will have varying rates. According to Betty Burri, a biochemist of the USDA and the University of California at Davis, people convert from 0% to at best 11% of beta-carotene into vitamin A. (Am J Clin Nutr. 2002 May;75(5):900-7.)
Since not everyone converts sufficient amounts of beta-carotene into vitamin A, why should we take it in a multi-vitamin formula? Beta-carotene has a number of immune-enhancing properties. Originally, it was thought that these effects were due to beta-carotene being converted into vitamin A in the body. The benefits of taking beta-carotene far outreach just its conversion to vitamin A. (Am J Clin Nutr. 1994 Dec;60(6):969-72. Am J Clin Nutr. 1997 Mar;65(3):871-5.)
Population-based studies have clearly demonstrated the effectiveness of a diet high in beta-carotene in protecting against a variety of cancers. Research has indicated that in order for beta-carotene to be effective against cancer, it must be taken with other antioxidant nutrients such as vitamins E and C and selenium. It is thought that beta-carotene is more effective against cancer than vitamin A, due to its antioxidant and immune-stimulating properties. (Ann Intern Med. 2006 Sep 5;145(5):372-85. Epub 2006 Jul 31. Cochrane Database Syst Rev. 2004 Oct 18;(4):CD004183.)
Alpha-Carotene
Alpha-carotene is part of the carotenoid family, and is one of the most abundant carotenoids in a healthy diet. Your body can convert alpha and beta-carotene into vitamin A for the maintenance of healthy skin and bones, good vision and a robust immune system.
Because the body converts alpha-carotene to vitamin A, alpha-carotene is called a precursor to vitamin A, or a provitamin A compound. As a precursor to vitamin A, alpha-carotene is only about half as effective as beta-carotene, another well-known carotenoid.
However, alpha-carotene may be even more effective than beta-carotene in its role as an antioxidant. In addition, alpha-carotene may help prevent cancer by stimulating cell-to-cell communication, a process which researchers now believe is necessary to ensure proper cell division.
Numerous studies suggest that a diet rich in carotenoids can protect cells from the harmful effects of free radicals. Since it may be difficult for many people to eat a diet abundant in carotenoids daily, it may be wise to supplement your diet with these valuable compounds.
