| dc.description.abstract | Refined red palm oil (RPO) contains a spectrum of natural carotenoids which exhibit diverse biological activity. Based on available scientific evidence the inclusion of moderate amounts of RPO or RPO-based products into the daily diet is a healthful and sustainable dietary approach to the prevention of sub-clinical vitamin A deficiency. Carotenoids have the potential to influence molecular and cellular processes which could be instrumental in reducing the risk for chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease and cancer.
