NUTRAPAM™ – NATURAL MIXED CAROTENOIDS

Nutrapam™ is produced from the crude palm oil using a highly innovative proprietary and patented process. The process has been developed by our in-house R & D facility of the company. The process has also brought about a major shift in palm carotenoids extraction process by adopting a unique approach in terms on understanding the methodology involved in production.
Our Palm mixed carotene possesses a mixture of alpha- carotene and beta-carotene (which exist in both trans and cis forms), gamma-carotene, lycopene and other traces minor carotenoids.
An interesting fact of palm based carotenoids is that the carotene composition in palm is similar to carrots, with approximately 33 percent alpha-carotene and 65 percent beta-carotene and about two percent of other carotenoids (e.g. γ-carotene, lycopene). Hence, the unique mixture of palm mixed-carotene presents not only a single carotene, but also a wholesome array of carotenoids.
Why Nutrapam™- Natural Mixed Carotene – Palm Source is Superior than other commercially available beta-carotene
