Lipids Are Us

a: Beta-carotene ~
b: tocopherol

What: "Beta-carotene is like tocopherol because it is also a lipid-soluble antioxidant. Compared to tocopherol, beta-carotene acts as a weak antioxidant and is only present in a 1/20 concentration of alpha-tocohpherol, and will only be used up after all other antioxidant defenses have been used."
