Effective is open for debate and cheaper probably is also. It is faster though.

If you are solely aiming for the carotene, yes but eating a carrot is good for your digestive system.
The only pros I can see in regards to supplements are if you have no desire to eat carrots or if you are allergic to the substance.

>The best way to make your skin more attractive is to eat more fruit and vegetables. If you are thinking of using supplements, then avoid products that contain high concentrations of beta-carotene. These increase the risk of cancer in people who smoke or who have had contact with asbestos. There are better supplements on the market that contain high levels of other and safer crotenoids.

Why the hell would you want orange skin?

Its important to note that prevention of cancer is not a benefit of synthetic/isolated beta-carotene -- which can actually increase cancer risk. (1,2) Cancer prevention and life-extension is only seen with plant-extracted carotenoids, which includes a mix of over 50 different carotenoids. (alpha-, beta-, gamma-carotene, lycopene, cryptoxanthin, etc)

1. The effect of vitamin e and beta carotene on the incidence of lung cancer and other cancers in male smokers. 1994. N. Engl. J. Med. 330(15):1029–35

2. Effects of a combination of beta carotene and vitamin a on lung cancer and cardiovascular disease. Omenn GS, Goodman GE, Thornquist MD, et al. 1996. N. Engl. J. Med. 334(18):1150–55

I can't tell if you're serious. If you are, they listed two examples of things that can cause cancer, but that doesn't make it an exhaustive list; putting the list in broader terms: if you have a high likelihood of getting cancer, then overloading solely on beta-carotene supplements will only prove to increase that likelihood.

>>36809210
so, you are saying that a pill with two or three isolated actives is the exact same thing as its source, which originally has hundreds or even thousands of beneficial active ingredients AND those of the supplement

this are the retarded faggots who buy supplememes

If they were really the same then you could eat like SHIT and take a multivitman and still look and feel as good as someone who actually eats good and doesnt eat SHIT. You can tell easily who eats like shit. Multivitams barely do anything, plus they aren't going to give you calories, so you'll end up getting hungry and possibly eating shit. Your body doesn't absorb a fucking vitamin like it does with a full meal of fruits and veggies. Goddamn you guys need to read a book.
