Beta-carotene with ascorbic acid is a combination preparation containing two important vitamins - beta-carotene (provitamin A) and ascorbic acid (vitamin C).
Beta-carotene is one of the most active representatives of the carotenoid group. In the body, it is converted into vitamin A, which is necessary for normal vision, growth and development, and the functioning of the immune system. In addition, beta-carotene has antioxidant effects, protecting cells from free radical damage.
Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) is involved in many metabolic processes and is necessary for the normal functioning of the immune system and strengthening the walls of blood vessels. It is also an important antioxidant.
The combination of these two vitamins in one preparation complements and enhances their effect. Beta-carotene with ascorbic acid is indicated for a lack of vitamins A and C, for the prevention of colds, increasing immunity, improving the condition of the skin, vision and mucous membranes. The drug is well tolerated, side effects are possible only in case of overdose.
