• Beta-carotene is a pro- vitamin, which is converted in the body to vitamin A, which is necessary for healthy eyes and skin.
• A lack of vitamin A may cause a rare condition called night blindness (problems seeing in the dark). It may also cause dry eyes, eye infections, skin problems, and slowed growth.

• Beta-carotene is a powerful anti-oxidant and prevents the body cells from oxidative damage by free radicals and help build a strong immune system.
• The antioxidant long linked to healthy vision, is now believed to benefit heart health, boost immunity and lower risk of diabetes.
• Beta-carotene along with Vitamin C and E is found to protect skin from harmful radiations of sun preventing from sunburn.
•  High intakes of beta-carotene and vitamin C have been found to increase the lung capacity, relieve respiratory problems, and protect you from breathing disorders such as asthma and bronchitis.

•  Yellowing of palms, hands, or soles of feet, and to a lesser extent the face (this may be a sign that your dose of beta-carotene as a nutritional supplement is too high)
•  Rare
•  Diarrhea
•  dizziness
•  joint pain
•  unusual bleeding or bruising

The advantage of dietary beta-carotene is that the body only converts as much as it needs. Excess Vitamin A can be toxic and harmful. Toxic levels can occur if you consume high doses of supplements without doctor’s consent.

Amino acid benefits are simple to name because, without amino acids, we cannot
exist. Every anatomical and physiological feature of a living organism is made
possible through the existence of amino acids.
The nine essential amino acids are histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine,
phenylalanine, threonine, tryptophan, and valine.

Isoleucine is one of three branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs). It helps to increase
the rate of protein synthesis and promotes muscle tissue formation.
Histidine is a precursor to various hormones and metabolites important
to kidney function, gastric secretion, the immune system, and neurotransmission. It
helps to produce red blood cells and hemoglobin.
Lysine has an important part to play in cell division and growth as it is a major
building block of growth factors.
Methionine contains the element sulfur which is essential
to cartilage and liver health and ameliorates hair structure and nail strength. 
Phenylalanine is a precursor of tyrosine hydroxylase, an enzyme that speeds up
catecholamine synthesis and so affects mood.
Threonine increases the uptake of other amino acids such as phenylalanine but also
contributes to neurotransmitter balance in the brain, muscle tissue production, and
immune system function.
Tryptophan is a precursor molecule of niacin (vitamin B3), melatonin and serotonin
and thus essential for sleep and mood.

 Folic acid deficiency
 Chills,
 Fever,
 Flushing (sense of warmth in the face, ears, neck and trunk)

 Increased sweating
 Metabolic disorder
 Vomiting
 Liver damage

Essential amino acids cannot be made by the body. As a result, they must come from
food.
Take extra caution in patients with the following medical conditions:
Severe acidosis
Congestive heart failure
