Beta Carotene

We all agree that beta carotene is a wonderful and needed supplement because it’s a great antioxidant, it boosts our immune system and it’s good for our vision. Even so, beta carotene can be more than meets the eye (wink-wink).

If you’re actively smoking, it’s highly recommended for you not to take any supplements with beta carotene. As doctors say, the use of these supplements has been associated with an increased risk of lung cancer for smokers and those who have been exposed to asbestos.

If you’re a suspect of lung cancer or you’re a fan of tobacco products, it’s better if you exclude beta carotene from your daily supplements.
