Product Description：Lycopene is a natural red colorant found in tomatoes, pink grapefruits and palm oil. It is a linear derivative of carotene. As a carotenoid without vitamin A activity, lycopene is known for its excellent antioxidant properties and is one of the most powerful antioxidants. Its unique structure enables it to efficiently quench singlet oxygen and scavenge free radicals, which can effectively protect the human body from free radical damage, thereby preventing a series of diseases.

Application areas and used:

1. Health Benefits

Lycopene plays an important role in the prevention and treatment of many diseases. It can inhibit singlet oxygen and hydrogen peroxide, help prevent common cancers such as prostate cancer, breast cancer and digestive tract cancer, and reduce the incidence of skin cancer and bladder cancer. In addition, lycopene can improve physical health by strengthening the immune system and has a significant cosmetic effect.

2. Nutritional Value

As an important antioxidant micronutrient, lycopene can significantly reduce the risk of aging-related degenerative diseases. Studies have shown that lycopene can promote cell-to-cell junction communication and inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells by upregulating the expression of gap junction protein 43. In addition, it also has the function of inhibiting cholesterol synthesis and promoting the degradation of low-density lipoprotein (LDL), which helps reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.

Lycopene not only has excellent health benefits, but is also widely used in the food industry. As an edible red pigment with high stability and strong antioxidant capacity, lycopene is suitable for coloring and seasoning various tomato products, meat, soups, sauces, candies, snacks and pasta.
