They are a class of phytonutrients that are essential for plant health and are a rich source of vitamin A and antioxidants. Carotenoids can be synthetically produced as well as they are found in plants, algae, bacteria and fungi. Some of the other major natural sources of carotenoids include papaya, pineapple, pumpkin, apricot, carrot, orange and corn. Alpha and beta carotene, beta-cryptoxanthin, lutein, zeaxanthin and lycopene are some of the commonly used carotenoids that are added as a colorant in food, cosmetics and animal feed products. In humans, they aid in treating cancer, improving vision and supporting physical growth and development.
