AntiOxidant - Caratomax

Shaklee Difference:

The average daily intake of the carotenoids lutein, lycopene, and beta carotene is only 8 mg. CarotoMax provides over 13 mg of these highly beneficial carotenoids.

The new CaratoMax contains 6 variety of carotene, extracted from a range of vegetables and fruits that are high in anti-oxidant properties e.g. seaweed, tomato, grape seed, broccoli, pot marigold, apple, potato, palm oil etc.  Nutritionists recommend us to take 5 – 9 servings of vegetables and fruits in order to maintain the best beta carotene concentration in the blood, this is to maintain healthy vision, healthy skin and prevent cancer.

Key Benefits:

• Safer Than Vitamin A – The earliest discovered vitamin was in 1912 i.e. vitamin A.  It was found that over-dosage of vitamin A caused toxicity.  However, in 1932, scientists discovered that beta carotene is the precursor of vitamin A and beta carotene is definitely safe for consumption.
• Improves Vision – It produces “visual purple” that enables us to maintain our sight in the dark.  It improves vision related problems such as, nyctalopia (night blindness), short sighted, presbyopic, astigmatism, xerophthalmia (dry eyes), tired eyes, glaucoma, cataract, floaters, eye bags and dark eye ring.
• Relieves Skin Disease – Generous intake can relief skin problems e.g. psoriasis, senile plaque, dry skin, shedding skin, pimples and acne.  Can be used externally to treat pustule, scabies, acne, skin ulcer.
• Protects Epithelial – It protects the outer layer tissues of cornea, oral cavity, intestines, stomach, lung, bronchus, bladder, uterus during epithelial tissue disintegration, treat digestive tract ulcer.
• Fights Cancer and Oxidation – Constant intake of beta carotene to strengthen our immune system, delay ageing and suppress the activity of cancer substance in order to prevent the formation of cancer cells.  This will minimize the risk of cancer, especially breast and lung.  It can reduces free radical and eliminates oxidised dead cells.
• Prevent Infections – Stimulates enzymes to kill germs, prevents and improves the condition of lung respiratory system disease: cough, hepatitis, asthma, flu and cold.

Why Yellowish Skin Colour?

The skin of a small number of people will turn yellowish after consuming beta carotene, however this is not jaundice.  Carotomax is natural botanic colour.  When small intestines’ mucous membrane converts beta carotene to vitamin A, it stimulates bile (yellow in colour) secretion as well as liver and gallbladder detoxification and flow with the blood to our palm, foot sole and face.  These natural detoxification and anti-oxidation processes normally last for a few months and will go away slowly, the results are new yet beautiful skin.
