Beta Carotene (2%) — from Carrot Root

With-Meal Capsule: 50–150 mg powder with a regular meal provides ≈1–3 mg β-carotene (2% = 20 mg/g). Keep the same mealtime daily for consistency.

Sachet To-Go: Pack 50–150 mg single-serve sticks for travel or work routines; mix with smoothie bases or juices.

Gummies: Target ≈0.5–1 mg β-carotene per 4 g gummy using ≈25–50 mg powder (≈0.6%–1.25% w/w); pilot flavour/acid balance.

Smoothie Add-In: 75–100 mg into a breakfast smoothie for an easy daily habit stack.

Stack Idea: Pair with a meal that naturally includes oils (nuts, seeds, yoghurt) for practical dispersion; add changes one at a time and track adherence.

Plant-Derived Source: Carrot root origin suits clean-label builds.

Predictable Dosing: 2% assay simplifies mg-to-µg math for capsules and gummies.

Format-Friendly: Mild taste and fine texture work in capsules, gummies, sachets and smoothies.

Clean & Compact: Standardized strength supports tidy formulation without stimulants.

Serving Size: 1 capsule or scoop (≈ 50–150 mg powder)

Ingredients: Beta Carotene (2%) Extract Powder (from Daucus carota root)

Does Not Contain: Added sugar, caffeine, artificial colours

Allergen Information: Vegan; gluten-free; dairy-free.

Usage Recommendation: Take 50–150 mg once daily with meals (≈1–3 mg β-carotene). If stacking with other actives, add one change at a time and space ~90 minutes from medications as a routine practice.

Storage Advice: Store cool, dry & dark. Keep tightly sealed away from direct sunlight.

Keep Away From Children

Q: How do I place plant-derived Beta Carotene 2% into a simple daily routine?

A: Keep it tied to a meal you rarely miss and keep the serving identical each day. A practical starting point is 50–150 mg powder, delivering roughly 1–3 mg β-carotene at a 2% assay. Hold everything else steady—sleep, hydration, meal timing, and steps—so you can actually see the effect of this one change. Run the same serving for two to four weeks before adjusting. If you’re building a stack later, add only one new variable at a time and track adherence and workflow friction; consistency beats tinkering and makes evaluation clear.

Q: What’s the practical difference between carrot-root β-carotene 2% and pure β-carotene for formulation?

A: This ingredient supplies standardized β-carotene within a botanical root matrix, which many formulators choose for clean-label positioning, mild taste, and straightforward mg math. Pure β-carotene powders or beadlets offer higher potency in a smaller serving but lack the plant-source narrative. Choose by build: capsules favour precision and small servings; gummies and sachets favour ease and habit sticking. Whichever you pick, lock the serving to the same mealtime, pilot small batches for flavour/colour stability, and avoid frequent product switches that blur evaluation and complicate SOPs.

Q: How do I set gummy strength without overcomplicating the formula?

A: Decide the per-gummy β-carotene target first—say 0.5 or 1 mg—then back-calculate powder using the 2% assay (20 mg per gram). That translates to ≈25 mg or ≈50 mg powder in a 4 g pectin gummy (≈0.6–1.25% w/w). Keep acids and flavours consistent while you pilot, disperse the powder thoroughly to avoid hot spots, and document every batch variable. Store cool and dry; heat and light can degrade carotenoids. Run a small stability check before scaling, then lock your SOP once taste, colour and uniformity meet targets for repeatability.

Q: Can I stack Beta Carotene with other vitamins or oils without overcomplicating things?

A: Yes—start with one anchor habit first: 50–150 mg powder at a consistent meal. After a week, consider pairing with a meal naturally containing oils (e.g., nuts, seeds, yoghurt) for practical dispersion, and add only one additional vitamin at a time if needed. Keep timing and portion sizes steady, leave ~90 minutes from medications as a general routine practice, and track comfort and adherence in a simple log. The goal is a routine that fits real days, not perfect days, so you keep it going long enough to evaluate results honestly.
