To help human auxiliary antioxidant
Lycopene is known as the "gold hidden in tomatoes" for its strong antioxidant capacity and has been recognized as a Class A nutrient by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, the Committee on Food Additives, and the World Health Organization. Scientists at Duke Medical Research Center in the United States have summarized international studies on lycopene to enhance the antioxidant capacity of the human body and pointed out that long-term supplementation of lycopene (25-30mg / d) can enhance the level of antioxidants and improve the body's Antioxidant capacity.
To help human protect the prostate
In the study of carotenoids, only lycopene has a clear protective effect. Men taking the highest daily dose of lycopene (more than 6.5 mg per day) in their diet reduced the risk of prostate cancer by 21% compared to those taking the least. The chemical structure of lycopene is very similar to that of prostate hypertrophy drug finasteride, which may be the mechanism by which lycopene reduces prostate hypertrophy.
