Why brands use Beta-Carotene
Beta-Carotene is an essential vitamin commonly considered for daily-wellness ranges, sitting in the fat-soluble vitamins family. On DAT Supply briefs the positioning is set by the brand brief and reviewed against the target market’s claim rules — we do not pre-position an active for any single benefit. Editorial framing uses only EU 432/2012- or DSHEA-compatible wording — we never promote unauthorised claims, even when the active has consumer-side momentum. Format-wise we have considered Beta-Carotene for gummies; the per-format formulation notes below describe the live constraints (taste, payload, stability, packaging) we tune in the formulation pass. Sourcing form (extract ratio for botanicals, salt or chelate form for minerals, free-form vs ester for amino acids) is reviewed against the brief, with documentation matched to the target market’s import rules. Inclusion rate and claim wording are reviewed per project — we don’t publish off-the-shelf doses.

EU-authorised health claims
EU-authorised wording for this ingredient is reviewed per project against Reg. 1924/2006 and the authorised list under Reg. 432/2012. No final claim wording is implied by this page.
Across the EU and UK markets Beta-Carotene is treated as a vitamin: any on-pack benefit wording must come from the EU 432/2012 register (UK retains the same wording post-Brexit), and the inclusion rate has to meet the minimum thresholds tied to the chosen claim. For the US market, label benefit copy follows DSHEA structure-function rules with the standard "not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease" disclosure. We never reuse a market’s wording as if it carried over — claim copy is rewritten per market and reviewed per project. Country-level rules (e.g. France, Italy, Belgium for the EU; California Prop 65 for the US) layer on top, and the back-of-pack nutritional table is built against the market’s reference intake framework.
Authorised at ≥15% NRV per daily serving. Claim wording must appear verbatim on consumer packaging. DAT reviews final pack copy per project against EU 1924/2006 and the authorised list under EU 432/2012.
