Carotenoid Complex
Country Life
Overview
This supplement contains a mix of carotenoids, Vitamin A, and plant extracts intended to provide antioxidant support. However, the doses of several ingredients are likely too low to produce significant benefits. The high dose of Vitamin A and the inclusion of several underdosed ingredients makes its effectiveness questionable compared to a more targeted and correctly dosed approach.
The Good
Contains a wide variety of carotenoids with potential antioxidant benefits.
Includes broccoli extract, which has shown promise in reducing markers of inflammation.
Provides a source of multiple plant-based antioxidants.
The Bad
High dose of Vitamin A may cause toxicity if preformed vitamin A is consumed from other sources
May cause gastrointestinal discomfort such as nausea
Insufficient evidence to support benefits from Carrot Seed Oil, limited human studies
Is it for you?
Best For: Individuals seeking antioxidant support, eye health, skin health, immune support
Skip If: You are pregnant or nursing without consulting a doctor, or have known allergies to ingredients.
