GNLD Carotenoid Complex broad spectrum whole food antioxidants
As you can see from the collage of photos I took of our pot, GNLD Carotenoid Complex is a unique blend of carotenoid antioxidants derived from a variety of the most carotenoid-rich fruits and vegetables.
GNLD guarantees what’s written on the label is in the pot. And also guarantees that there’s nothing in the pot that’s not on the label. So you won’t find any sneaky carotenoids from marigolds, or anything else humans aren’t designed to eat!
What are carotenoids?
Carotenoids are…
- the natural pigments that give tomatoes and strawberries their red colour, apricots their unique orange-yellow, and carrots their orange-red. Spinach contains a lot of carotenoids too, though they’re masked by the chlorophyll that makes the leaves dark green
- stored in the lipid (oily) parts of the cell membranes of fruits and vegetables
- very powerful antioxidants, which Mother Nature has put there to protect the cells of fruits and vegetables from attack by free radicals
When we chew colourful fruits and vegetables, the plant cells are pulverised by our teeth, releasing the antioxidant protective pigments from the cell walls. The longer we chew our food, the more pigments we get. So your mother was right when she urged you to chew your food properly!
How does Carotenoid Complex protect our cells?
In the stomach and intestines, the carotenoids are absorbed into the blood stream, where they immediately start protecting us.
Red blood cells, for example, take the carotenoids and incorporate them into their cell walls, where the carotenoids do a similar job of protection they did in the plant cell walls.
The short of it is, if you can protect your body’s components from damage by free radicals, you’ll live a longer, healthier life. And look much younger than you really are!
Is there any proof GNLD’s Carotenoid Complex works?
Plenty! Here’s some of the human clinical research that’s been done with GNLD Carotenoid Complex…
Scientists from the United States Department of Agriculture conducted clinical tests on human volunteers using GNLD Carotenoid Complex. The amazing results they got were reviewed by other scientists, before they were published in the world-respected scientific journal, ‘American Journal of Clinical Nutrition’.
Here’s what the USDA studies showed about GNLD Carotenoid Complex…
- natural killer cells (NKC) were enhanced by more than 21% above baseline in just 20 days
- lymphocytes were dramatically enhanced by 37% in only 20 days
- the oxidation of blood lipids was greatly reduced
- the oxidation of cellular lipids was reduced by 44%
Another study by the USDA and the University of Washington, Seattle, with human volunteers, showed GNLD Carotenoid Complex can defend your cells against biologic attacks from free radicals.
And there have been many other University studies, all confirming the far-reaching health benefits of GNLD Carotenoid Complex.
What’s all this research mean?
In simpler terms, GNLD Carotenoid Complex…
- boosted greatly the immune systems of the volunteers in the clinical trials, in only 20 days
- protected their cells from damage by free radicals
- protected their hearts and blood vessels against free radical attack
- reduced the chance of their cholesterol being oxidised
Why you need GNLD’s Carotenoid Complex…
Look at any of the current recommendations from the WHO, Heart Associations, Cancer Associations, or Diabetes Associations from around the world, and you’ll see a message common to them all… eat a minimum of 5, preferably as much as 11, servings of carotenoid-rich fruits and vegetables every day to get protection against heart disease, cancer, and a host of other debilitating diseases.
Many people don’t eat 5 servings a week. You may know people who don’t eat fruit at all. Or any vegetables.
Some health-conscious people do eat a variety of fruits and vegetables every day. But to get all the antioxidant power in a pot of 90 GNLD Carotenoid Capsules, by eating the carotenoid-rich fruits and vegetables from which it’s made, they’d have to munch their way through a whopping 115 kg of raw produce!
GNLD Carotenoid Complex is the only way to make sure you’re getting the protection you need. And you can only get it from GNLD because it’s protected by a world-wide patent (UK 2,274,235).
How to get your Carotenoid Complex…
To get the equivalent protection by eating carotenoid-rich fruits and vegetables every day instead of taking 3 capsules of Carotenoid Complex, you’d have to chew your way through 1.28 kg of raw stuff every day!
Still not convinced you need daily GNLD Carotenoid Complex?

hello. i recently had a lumpectomy done and the lump tested positive for cancer (approx stage 2). the lymph nodes were negative for cancer and the margins were close but clear. It is recommended that i start radio therapy and light chemo. however i am 4 weeks pregnant now, so radiation is out for sure. i want to know if i can take the carotenoid complex during pregnancy. thank you
Hi Candice.
Carotenoid Complex is made from carrot, red bell pepper, tomato, spinach, apricot, strawberry, and peach extracts in a base of pure olive oil. A little natural vitamin E is added (6 i.u. per capsule) to stop oxidation.
Because the supplement is made entirely from whole food, I would say it is safe to take during pregnancy, provided you are not allergic to any of the component foods. Some people get a rash with strawberries, for example.
It is always best to check with your medical doctor, so please show him/her the Carotenoid Complex label, which you can download here: http://s3.amazonaws.com/static.gnld.com/za/product/2564/label.pdf
You may also like to discuss with your doctor if it is possible to delay the “light chemo” until your baby is born.
If you do a search on Dr. Mercola’s website ( http://www.mercola.com ), you will find many articles on natural treatments, which could at least delay the “light chemo” until after baby has arrived.
How can I order your product?
Hello Ingrid.

pls can a child take vitasquares&guard together especially from birth.
Hi Osita.
Children can take Vita Squares and Vita Guard as soon as they are old enough to safely chew food. Even then, break the tablets into very small pieces, or better still, dissolve them in water. At that time they could also have a drink of Nutrishake, and chew an Omega 3 Salmon Oil capsule.
Before that age it’s dangerous to give things to chew, because very young children and infants cannot handle tablets or capsules safely, and they may get stuck in their wind-pipes, with disastrous consequences.
Wow, I have enjoyed what i have read about Carotenoids. However, i have a question, how good can carotenoid complex be for someone with HIV AIDS? Thanks
Hi Dorrie. Thanks for visiting, and for your good question.
As far as I know, there have been no specific clinical studies of Carotenoid Complex for people with HIV/AIDS, so I can’t claim it will definitely help. However, Carotenoid Complex has been proven to help boost the human immune system, and I’m sure the benefit would be even more advantageous for a sick person.
I would like to know whether I can use Carotenoid Complex to improve my vision.
Hello Monday.
I’m not sure exactly what you mean by ‘improve my vision’.
Of course, Carotenoid Complex will not improve short-sight, for example, because that is caused by the physical characteristics of your eyes.
However, if you google carotenoids and eye health there are pages and pages of articles describing the benefits of carotenoids such as zeaxanthin and lutein to improve age-related macular degeneration and other conditions of the eyes.
GNLD’s unique Carotenoid Complex contains not only zeaxanthin and lutein often referred to in Google, it also has alpha-carotene, beta-carotene, gamma-carotene, zeta-carotene, cis-beta-carotene, lycopene, cis-lycopene, alpha-cryptoxanthin, and beta-cryptoxanthin.
All these carotenes help to strengthen your immune system generally, and support eye health by supplying the antioxidant carotenoids found in high concentrations in various parts of normal, healthy eyes.
i want to know if a pregnant women can drink all your nutritionals or are there some of them she can not drink.
Hello Elize.
Thanks for visiting our website, and for your question.
I’m happy to help, but would like to ask which particular supplements do you have in mind?
Alternatively, you may like to give GNLD in Johannesburg a call on 0800 600 790 toll-free from a landline. They have a qualified Nutritionist and Pharmacist on their staff, who will be happy to answer your questions…much quicker than waiting for an exchange of emails with me.
Best wishes,
David.
I would love to use products like, herbal feminine, multiminerals, tre en en. But i would like to know if this supplements interfear with birth control pills. My friend is taking this products and they are great.
Hi Linda.
Thanks for visiting.
GNLD nutritional supplements are derived from real food from the human food chain, so they won’t interfere with anything in a normal healthy person who isn’t allergic to anything. Some people are allergic to shell-fish, for example, so for them Full Motion is best avoided.
The only caution in your list is the Feminine Herbal Complex, which should not be taken if you’re pregnant, or thinking about getting pregnant. Couldn’t find anything to suggest it shouldn’t be taken if you’re using the birth-control pill, but it’s always best to check with your medical professional, Linda.
Best wishes,
David.
I’ve had a multi fibroid uterus for a while now and had a myomectomy in June 2007. The fibroids were taken out, bleeding reduced and anaemia was more manageable. However, i got married two years ago in February 2010 and i noticed that the fibroids started growing back shortly after my wedding. My uterus is enlarged now; Doctors say it’s the size of a 5 to 6 month foetus. I don’t want to have another surgery; in actual fact, i am keen to have children. Is there anything you can recommend that is proven to work please?
Hello Honeydrops. Thanks for visiting and sharing. As far as I know, there isn’t a nutritional supplement from any company that will cure fibroids. Please have a look at this link…there’s lots of useful info about fibroids from Virginia Hopkins, a well-known women’s health advisor.
I want to know how can baby of eight month can use omega 3 coz I met some difficult on feeding my baby omega 3 coz i breending it with other food and feed my baby but my woor is I think I loose many of nutrient in that process of breending
Well done, Grace, for recognising Omega 3 from fish will help your baby’s brain, eyes, nerves, and lots of other parts, develop really well. Of course, your baby is too young to be given a capsule, so pierce the capsule with a pin and squirt the contents into his/her food. Or you can blend a capsule into the food when you’re preparing it…the nutrients will not be lost. In theory, oils can oxidise if they stand around, so give baby the food as soon as you’ve prepared it. Best wishes, David.
the product of gnld are real good and functioning product. I using it and I real feel the different. I advance other peoples who love their life to use this product.

Hi Elize. Thanks for visiting.
I don’t speak Afrikaans, but I’m guessing you’re asking if Carotenoid Complex is okay for people who are diabetic. Yes it is. The antioxidant carotenoids are dissolved in a base of pure olive oil, and there’s no sugar added.
Best wishes, David.
