Lycopene is a natural carotenoid pigment found in fruits and vegetables, particularly in tomatoes. It is a powerful antioxidant that helps protect the body from free radicals that can damage cells and contribute to the development of certain diseases.
Lycopene has been found to have potential health benefits such as reducing the risk of certain types of cancer, improving cardiovascular health, and enhancing skin health by protecting it from UV radiation.
Lycopene 10% powder is a concentrated form of lycopene that can be used in dietary supplements or functional foods to provide these health benefits. It is typically derived from tomatoes through a specialized extraction process that concentrates the lycopene content.
