Preliminary Data on the Safety of Phytoene- and Phytofluene-Rich Products for Human Use including Topical Application [PDF]

Journal of Toxicology, 2018
The colorless carotenoids phytoene and phytofluene are comparatively understudied compounds found in common foods (e.g., tomatoes) and in human plasma, internal tissues, and skin. Being naturally present in common foods, their intake at dietary levels is

The Interindividual Variability of Phytofluene Bioavailability is Associated with a Combination of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms. [PDF]

Mol Nutr Food Res, 2023
ScopePhytofluene is a colorless carotenoid with potential health benefits that displays a higher bioavailability compared to carotenoids such as lutein, β‐carotene or lycopene. Several studies suggest its bioavailability displays an elevated interindividual variability.

Dietary carotenoids and breast cancer risk: evidence from a large population-based incident case-control study [PDF]

Nutrition & Metabolism
Background Although mechanistic studies suggest protective roles for carotenoids against breast cancer (BC), human studies yield inconsistent findings. Few have comprehensively evaluated dietary intake of individual and grouped carotenoids in relation to
