Carotenoid Mix with anthocyanins: more powerful due to the unique combination

The plant-based carotenoids lycopene, beta-carotene, lutein and zeaxanthin in the Carotenoid Mix by Fairvital form an orthomolecular complex.

What are carotenoids?

Carotenoids belong to the secondary plant substances. They are fat-soluble plant pigments, which give fruits and vegetables their colour. They naturally occur in yellow, orange or red plants or fruits. However, green plants contain carotenoids as well. They are covered by the green colour of chlorophyll.
500-600 different carotenoids are known, 10% of which have a provitamin A activity, which means that the body is able to transform them into vitamin A (retinol) as needed. The best-known carotenoid with provitamin A activity is beta-carotene.

Carotenoids: antioxidants for the skin

Their antioxidant properties are important for the entire body and are primarily used to stimulate the immune system and to protect tissues and cells. Carotenoids also play a major role in promoting the health of the eyes, skin and hair.

Anthocyanins for the eyes

The also contained anthocyanins are water-soluble plant pigments, which occur in almost every higher plant and give the flowers and fruits their red, violet, blue or blue-black colour.
Anthocyanins are closely related to carotenoids and have similar properties such as the antioxidant effect. It is many times stronger than the antioxidant properties of vitamin C or vitamin E. Therefore, they are able to protect cells and tissues optimally and support a good visual function of the eyes.
