What is alpha-carotene?
Alpha-carotene is one of the most abundant carotenoids in the North American diet. It is a "provitamin A"compound, one of approximately 50 carotenoids able to be converted in the body into retinol, an active form of vitamin A. Alpha-carotene has approximately one-half of the vitamin A activity of beta-carotene.
