    There is an enzyme called SOD in human body Sod is a kind of substance that can remove free radical rubbish in human body Since the age of 40, the activity of sod has gradually weakened, and it is difficult to remove the garbage in the body The garbage produced by these free radicals is a kind of toxic substance, which causes the aging of human body At this time, we need to add some nutrients to help alleviate the aging speed of the body, such as lycopene, which can produce antioxidants and delay the aging of human body Lycopene can prevent the oxidation of LDL and reduce the risk of atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease Among the plants, tomato has the highest lycopene content, with 20 mg of lycopene per 100 g of tomato In Greece, Italy and other Mediterranean countries, where residents often eat barbecue food, barbecue food is easy to induce tumor However, the incidence rate of cervical cancer, prostate cancer and liver cancer is low in this area Because local residents often eat tomato sauce, the product of tomatoes They will use ketchup as the seasoning for grilling fish and meat The roasted fish and meat will not burn This kind of barbecue method reduces the mutagen effect in the fried and roasted food and greatly reduces the carcinogenic rate One of the main reasons for the formation of cancer cells is that under the influence of external mutagens, tissue cells make genes suddenly malignant Lycopene can inhibit the mutation process and prevent cancer Lycopene is also an excellent antioxidant, which can prevent the damage of harmful substances "free radicals" to human tissues and organs, especially the heart and brain vessels People often eat health food containing lycopene, which can prevent senile visual degeneration, anti-aging, anti-cancer and prevent cardiovascular disease At present, the research shows that lycopene has the effect of anti free radical, and has become a natural health food Because lycopene is a fat soluble nutrient, it is easy to be absorbed by human body when cooking tomato or tomato products with oil However, lycopene is easy to decompose and lose its antioxidant capacity when exposed to light, heat and oxygen So avoid heating for a long time when cooking, so you can keep more lycopene in the dish The aging of human body is closely related to the absence of lycopene The best time to prevent aging and body diseases is to fully supplement lycopene at the age of 40-60 Lycopene can delay aging, inhibit tumor, improve immunity, reduce cardiovascular disease and prevent prostate disease The tomato capsule produced by Taiji group, which contains lycopene, is extracted from high-quality tomatoes in Tianshan, Xinjiang By using modern bioengineering technology, it breaks through the dissolution and absorption obstacles of lycopene in raw tomatoes and family cooking, can enhance the absorption of lycopene by human body, and delay the aging of human body.
