Research Papers that Mention the Interaction
“Mean percent increase in plasma beta-carotene concentration at 30 h after the meal with beta-carotene was reduced by more than one-half when pectin was added to the meal.”
“The increase in plasma beta-carotene concentration was significantly reduced by pectin at 30 and 192 h (paired t test; P less than 0.005 and less than 0.05, respectively).”
“These results indicate that the inhibitory effect of pectin may provide one explanation for observations of reduced plasma beta-carotene response in humans after the ingestion of carotenoid-rich foods when compared with equivalent doses of beta-carotene supplements.”
Plasma beta-carotene response in humans after meals supplemented with dietary pectin.“Moreover, with pectin, there was an inverse relationship between methoxyl content of pectin and beta-carotene utilization.”
