Carotenoid function
Classification:
There are more than 600 kinds of carotenoids in the world, of which about 50 kinds can be transformed into vitamin A. The main carotenoids in food and listening are alpha, beta-beta carotene and lutein. Red heart eggs contain more carotenoids. This kind of egg is not only good-looking and delicious, but also has the functions of anti-free radicals, anti-aging, lowering blood lipids, enhancing blood vessel elasticity, enhancing visual ability, and improving human immunity.

1. Anti-oxidation and anti-aging
Carotenoids have antioxidant functions: carotenoids contain multiple conjugated double bonds in their molecular structure, which can reduce the damage of free radicals to cellular genetic material (DNA, RNA) and cell membranes (such as proteins, lipids and carbohydrates). Once highly active and damaging free radicals are formed in a biological system, they approach important components of the cell, such as proteins, lipids and nucleic acids, and undergo intense destruction. For example, hydroxyl radicals can damage 90% of DNA, and singlet oxygen and hydroxyl radicals can break the strand of DNA. If the damage to the genetic material cannot be repaired for a long time, it will lead to the formation of cancer cells. Free radicals are produced under normal oxygen conditions. Many studies have shown that in the process of aging, disease and inflammation, free radicals in the body increase, and carotenoids can inhibit the production of free radicals or eliminate excessive free radicals. It can delay aging and prevent cancer.
2. Immunomodulation
The immune system in addition to immune defense that is to protect the body from bacteria, viruses and other pathogens caused by the role of disease, as well as immune surveillance that is timely detection and phagocytosis of cancer cells to prevent cancer. Researchers pointed out that carotenoids can enhance the vitality of B cells in the immune system, and B cells can circulate in the body and eliminate foreign pathogens. Carotenoids also assist B cells to produce antibodies and improve the activity of other immune components. Carotenoids can increase the number of neutrophils, which can surround bacteria and secrete enzymes that degrade bacteria. Carotenoids can also increase the number of natural killer cells, namely NK cells, eliminates infected cells or cancer cells in the body. The results of in vitro tests conducted in TjoelKer et al. showed that 10-6mol/L carotene stimulated the phagocytosis and bactericidal power of peritoneal macrophages in dairy cows before and after the dry milk period.
3, anti-cancer
At the Glassger Life Science and Technology Conference in 2004, a Ph.D. from the University of Hawaii in the United States read a research report. The mechanism of carotenoids against cancer is to enhance the information connection between cells and cells, thereby ensuring cell growth. The information of development, development, and division is stably transmitted, and the lack of it can easily cause mutation and cancer. Various items show that many carotenoids have anti-cancer activity, and the application of carotenoids may reduce the risk of cancer death by 20%-30%. Epidemiology, pharmacological experiments are sure? carotene, lycopene, lutein and other carotenoids have anti-cancer effect,? carotene has a good therapeutic effect on some precancerous lesions such as oral cancer, nasopharyngeal cancer,? carotene also has a preventive effect on lung cancer, cervical cancer, ovarian cancer, esophageal cancer. Streatology research also shows that the anti-cancer sites of fruits and vegetables rich in carotenoids in diet are lung, pancreas, stomach, liver, colon, breast and so on. In summary, carotenoids have the effect of preventing and treating cancer and are beneficial to human health.
Shanghai Amway-Nutrilite Company has developed natural carotenoid capsules, 180 capsules per bottle of 340 yuan.
