DESCRIPTION

Lycopene is an antioxidant obtained as a natural extract from Solanum lycopersicum.

It is a carotenoid that protects the body against free radical damage and contributes to the improvement of autoimmune function. Pumpkin seed oil is an excellent source of essential fatty acids as well as key nutrients such as zinc, iron, calcium, magnesium and phosphorus.

Characteristics

Lycopene is an antioxidant with anti-tumor effects in prostate, breast, bladder, pancreas, lungs and skin, in cervical, ovarian, uterine, intestinal cancer.

Lycopene reduces the risk of atherosclerosis and myocardial infarction incidence decreases by 20-50%. The administration of lycopene gives high hopes for preventing neoplastic and degenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease.

Do not forget that lycopene is the most important representative of the carotenoid family.

Research on macular degeneration in older persons proved the important protective role of lutein (5-6 mg / day for 6 months lutein reduces the incidence of macular degeneration by 43%). Antioxidant effect of lutein occurs not only at the level of the visual system, but also at the level of other organs, and in some metabolic chains, it can be used with good results by all those who were recommended consumption of antioxidants, for the prevention of cardiovascular disease, prostate cancer, etc. In the eye, the effect of lutein is amplified by lycopine, with special consequences in terms of slowing down or stopping macular degeneration.

Lycopene is characterized by a high antioxidant capacity that inactivate singlet oxygen, hydroxyl radicals and the hydrogen peroxide.
