β-carotene belongs to carotenoids. It is ubiquitous in nature and the most stable natural pigment. It is an orange-yellow fat-soluble compound, shiny rhombohedral or crystalline powder, It mainly comes from natural foods such as green plants and yellow and orange fruits. The dilute solution of β-carotene is orange-yellow to yellow, orange when the concentration increases, and may be slightly red due to the polarity of the solvent. The richest sources of β-carotene are green leafy vegetables and yellow or orange fruits, such as carrots, spinach, lettuce, potatoes, sweet potatoes, broccoli, cantaloupe, etc. Beta-carotene is fat-soluble and is usually fortified in the form of capsules and gels.

Function:
1. Health care for the visual system. The rod cells on the retina contain rhodopsin and have the function of scotopic vision. An appropriate amount of β-carrot can promote the normal content of rhodopsin, thereby avoiding the slow adaptation to the dark field caused by the lack of vitamin A, and also avoiding the damage to the eyes caused by the strong light after the dark field. In addition, it can also prevent night blindness, dry eye, corneal ulcer and corneal softening;
2. Health care for skin tissue. VA is necessary to maintain the integrity of all epithelial tissues, and β-carrot can be converted into VA in the human body. Therefore, taking a certain amount of β-carotene is of great significance for maintaining normal body surface, digestive tract, respiratory tract, reproductive tract, and endocrine tract, and can avoid skin dandruff, keratinization, and hard scales of epidermal cells. Symptoms, hyperkeratotic xeroderma and other skin diseases. β-carotene also has a good effect on the stability of cell membranes. It is also used to treat "sunlight" inflammation caused by sun exposure.
3. Delay aging. β-carotene can increase the activity of red blood cells. Peroxide free radicals can accelerate the aging of the human body, and people vividly call it the "garbage" of the body. And β-carotene can neutralize the peroxide free radicals in the body, which plays a role in delaying aging;
4. Resist bad environment. Those who often work in a dark room, strong light, high temperature or deep water environment, as well as radiation workers, and people who often watch TV, should add β-carotene to resist adverse environments.
