ABSTRACT:
Concentrated solutions of carotenoids in essential oils and cosmetic oils for use in foods, beverages, and personal care products. The concentrated solutions comprise between about 0.8 weight % and about 8 weight % carotenoid in the oil, or between about 15 times and about 100 times the maximum concentration reported in the prior art. The concentrated solutions are particularly suited for adding carotenoids to foods, beverages, and personal care products. An antioxidant may be added to help in preventing oxidation of the carotenoid.
