Carotenoids provide numerous health benefits, including supporting eye health by protecting against macular degeneration and blue light damage, acting as antioxidants to reduce the risk of chronic diseases like cancer and cardiovascular disease, and supporting immune function and skin health. They can also help manage blood sugar and reduce obesity-related issues, and some have antimicrobial effects.

Key benefits of carotenoids

• Eye health: Carotenoids like lutein and zeaxanthin accumulate in the retina and help protect against age-related macular degeneration and cataracts. They also filter harmful blue light.
• Antioxidant properties: As powerful antioxidants, carotenoids protect cells from damage caused by free radicals, which may lower the risk of certain cancers and cardiovascular disease.
• Reduced disease risk: High dietary intake of carotenoids is linked to a decreased risk of obesity, diabetes, and certain cancers, such as those of the breast, ovary, and colon.
• Immune system support: Carotenoids enhance immune function, with some, like astaxanthin, potentially improving IgA production and helping to combat gut dysbiosis.
• Skin health: They can protect against skin damage, help condition the skin, and contribute to a healthier glow.
• Metabolic health: Carotenoids can help improve insulin sensitivity, lower blood sugar, and reduce inflammation, which is beneficial for managing metabolic disorders.
• Antimicrobial effects: Some carotenoids, such as lutein, have shown antimicrobial activity by inhibiting the growth of various bacteria.
