Concentrate Softgels
As seen on The Dr. Oz Show, January 2013
Not to be confused with palm kernel oil, red palm oil is derived from the fruit
of the palm tree and is highly regarded as one of the most nutritious edible oils.
Its name comes from its characteristic dark red color due to a high content of
carotenoids—the same nutrients that give carrots, tomatoes and other fruits and
vegetables their orange and red colors.
Red palm oil is a rich source of phytonutrients and tocotrienols—powerful
vitamin E compounds. However, it’s tough to get enough of these nutrients by
consuming the liquid form of red palm oil or red palm cooking oil, unless you
take the suggested dose of two tablespoons daily. The disadvantage of taking
this much oil is the excess calories—approximately 250 kcal—that will be
consumed to experience the beneficial effects of this supplement.
Palm mixed carotenes have unique health benefits:
• Supports weight management
• Natural Pro-vitamin A
• Supports eye health
• Promotes healthy skin
There is an easier way to take a more concentrated form of red palm oil with
fewer calories and all of the antioxidant activity this natural product has to offer:
Spectra™ red palm oil concentrate softgels. This patented brand of red palm
oil from Carotech is 100 times more concentrated than regular red palm oil.
One softgel provides 250 mg of Spectra™ red palm oil concentrate and all
of the antioxidant properties found in the liquid in an easy-to-swallow capsule.
Softgels also have a longer shelf life than oils.
