16 ounces of food or liquid ingested is the suggested dosage. Research does show that carotenoid
supplements are not as well absorbed when taken alone on an empty stomach.In foods, canthaxanthin powder is used as food coloring and is added to animal feed to improve the color
of chicken skins, egg yolks, salmon, and trout.
In manufacturing, canthaxanthin powder is used in cosmetics and in medications.
