NOW Foods Beta Carotene Natural 7500mcg 90 Softgels

NOW® Natural Beta-Carotene supplies 7,500 mcg (25,000 IU) of beta-carotene in each softgel, sourced from natural algae. Beta-carotene is a provitamin A carotenoid, which means your body converts it into vitamin A only as it is needed — a built-in safety mechanism that makes it a self-regulating source of the nutrient. Beyond serving as a vitamin A precursor to support vision and skin health, beta-carotene is itself a valuable antioxidant that helps neutralize free radicals and provides protective support for vitamin A and other nutrients in the body.*

About the key ingredients

• Vitamin A (100% as natural beta-carotene) – 7,500 mcg (25,000 IU): A plant-source provitamin the body converts to vitamin A on demand, supporting vision and skin health, with its own antioxidant activity that helps protect cells from free-radical damage.* Learn more about Vitamin A from the NIH.
• Other ingredients: A softgel capsule (gelatin, glycerin and water) with a light oil base that helps your body absorb this fat-soluble nutrient.

Who it's for

NOW® Natural Beta-Carotene is ideal for adults who want the benefits of vitamin A but prefer a plant-source, self-regulating form, as well as anyone looking to add antioxidant support to their routine.* Because the body converts only what it needs, it is a reassuring option for those who are cautious about taking preformed vitamin A, or who want a naturally derived carotenoid from algae.*

Yes — in addition to being a vitamin A precursor, beta-carotene is a carotenoid antioxidant that helps neutralize free radicals in the body.*

How do I take it?
Take one softgel daily with a meal to support absorption of this fat-soluble nutrient.*
