The blend of carotenes in Protectamins is superior to Beta Carotene alone: Multi-Carotene Complex...197%, Marine Beta Carotene...100%, Synthetic Beta Carotene...96%, [*Single oxygen (free radical ) quenching ability], [**Based on typical assay of equivalent doses of 30,000 iu Beta Carotene]. What are free radicals? Free radicals or oxidants are unstable molecules that damage cells and DNA. The effects of oxidants on the body have been compared to "rusting out". They are products of normal metabolism, exercise and immune reactions. They also come form outside the body through environmental factors. What are Antioxidants? Antioxidants stabilize free radicals and protect surrounding cells from damage. When the body has a robust supply of antioxidants, they inhibit free radical formation. What are Carotenes? Carotenes are powerful antioxidants found on plants and vegetables. Why is Alpha Carotene Important? Studies show that Alpha Carotene may have as much as ten times the protective effect of beta carotene in certain tissues and organs.
