Hi George,

I know of no reliable evidence or support for the above concern.

In regard to Beta Carotene, after reviewing the published scientific research in 2000, the Food and Nutrition Board of the Institute of Medicine concluded that the existing evidence was insufficient to establish a recommended dietary allowance (RDA) or adequate intake (AI) for carotenoids.

In Health
Jeff
