From Palm Oil Industry Prepares for a Rosy Future by Joy Froding Originally printed in July - September 1996 issue of Bluebook Update

Red palm oil is one of the richest sources of carotenes, specifically beta carotene, in terms of retinol (provitamin A) equivalents. Vitamin A, when derived from natural or synthetic sources, can be highly toxic taken in over dosage. Red palm oil beta carotenes, on the other hand, can be taken in their natural state in food safely, are nontoxic and provide the same benefits as pure vitamin A. A study conducted in 1994 by Dr. May, found that this oil contains as much as 15 to 300 times as many retinol equivalents as natural sources like carrots, leafy green vegetables and tomatoes, which are considered to have significant quantities of provitamin A. "The nutritional benefits are great," says Salleh Kassim, executive director of the Chicago, Illinois office of The Malaysian Palm Oil Council of America. "(Red palm oil) also possesses natural antioxidants, anticancer properties for certain types of cancers and contains one of the highest amounts of tocotrienols and tocopherols (antioxidants that may work to prevent cancer as well as the buildup of cholesterol.)" "Red palm oil is a very balanced oil. It has almost equal percentages of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids, and has a high content of monounsaturates very similar to olive oil," says Mr. Kassim. **
