2- Helps prevent lung, breast and colon cancer.
3- Slows down aging: Beta-carotene acts as an antioxidant for damaged cells that result from the metabolism process.
4- Vitamin A and antioxidants protect the skin from sun damage, and prevent the appearance of premature wrinkles, acne, pigmentation, uneven skin tone and other defects.
5- Helps prevent infection, due to the role of the various vitamins it provides in strengthening the body’s immunity.
