The Nutritional Impact
The vegetables and fruits we consume contain many antioxidants that we are all familiar with. Vitamin C and Vitamin E are two great examples, but vegetables and fruits also contain smaller, lesser-known compounds called phytonutrients that provide the body with incredible health benefits.
What are Carotenoids?
The BioPhotonic scanner allows for the accurate measuring of these phytonutrients, specifically the carotenoids. Carotenoids are a class of more than 600 naturally occurring pigments synthesized by plants, algae, and photosynthetic bacteria. The deeply colored carotenoids are the sources of the yellow, orange, red, purple, blue, and white colors of vegetables and fruit. Even the green-leafy vegetables contain these colorful pigments, but the strong green color of the chlorophyll masks them. Consistently eat an abundance of and a variety of carotenoid-rich foods to improve scanner score.
Antioxidant Health
By measuring the stable level of carotenoid antioxidants in your skin and generating your Skin Carotenoid Score, the Scanner provides a more accurate and reliable biomarker of your overall antioxidant health status than other methods of measuring antioxidants. Getting your Skin Carotenoid Score makes you aware of the antioxidant levels in your body and gives you the push you need to improve your overall antioxidant health.
