This study examined to what extent carotenoids, as a dietary supplement or skin protection factor, are able to neutralize the negative effects of free radicals. A double-blind study with 24 healthy volunteers, the research was conducted at the Berlin Charit\u00e9 University Hospital. It found that the use of carotenoids promotes the neutralization of free radicals and thus contributes to the prevention of skin cancer and premature aging of the skin.
