ABSTRACT:
Pharmacologically and biologically active compositions containing carotenoids, in combination with micro and macro nutrients, a process for their preparation from carrots and their use in formulations for health care and nutrition applications. The process includes sequentially treating carrot juice with a carboxylic acid and a saccharide to obtain a carotenoid fraction rich in micro and macro nutrients in proportions compatible with those originally found in the natural state. A method of treating retenoid deficient states and immunomodulation is also disclosed using the composition.
