Lycopene is a natural carotenoid that is found in tomatoes. It is responsible for the deep red colour of the fruit. Researchers have found lycopene to be a potent anti-oxidant. Lycopene may actively inhibit the development of prostate, digestive tract, breast, lung and cervical cancer, as well ascardiovascular disease and age-related macular degeneration. Recent research has particularly focused on its effects in not only helping to reduce the risk of developing prostate cancer, but also in helping to treat this disease. This product appears to be particularly important to those at high risk of developing cancer, such as smokers and drinkers. Oleoresin, the natural tomato oil facilitates the absorption of the lycopene.
