Description
Tomato carotenoid for antioxidant and cellular support
Pure Encapsulations' Lycopene provides a natural tomato extract rich in lycopene, various carotenoids, vitamin E and other important phytochemicals. Data from over 47,000 participants in the Health Professionals Follow-Up Study suggested that tomato or lycopene intake was positively associated with prostate cell health. In another study involving 30 male subjects, supplementation with lycopene promoted healthy prostate function. This was one of the first randomized, prospective clinical trials to suggest that a lycopene supplement, rather than dietary tomato consumption, supported prostate health. Research compiled in a multi-center study involving ten European countries revealed that the antioxidant properties of dietary lycopene supported cardiovascular health. Fifty-seven epidemiological studies indicate that lycopene from tomato consumption or tomato-based products may help digestive, lung, cervical and breast cell health. Lycopene has also demonstrated the potential for promoting retinal and macular health.

- Pure Encapsulations Lycopene is derived from natural tomato concentrate. Fresh tomatoes contain lycopene almost exclusively in the trans conformation, although a variety of cis isomers are possible. When exposed to light and heat, such as during food processing, trans isomers will convert to cis as it is the more stable form of lycopene. Pure Encapsulations Lycopene is naturally extracted by a proprietary method, which preserves the trans conformation of the molecule
