Lycopene antioxidant "generalist"

Business Club reported on May 30 that nature has created many magical natural health care products Lycopene is one of them It is a natural pigment in plants, rich in tomatoes, watermelons and other natural fruits and vegetables, but it is known as the "strongest antioxidant" in nature, so it has the effect of anti-aging and disease prevention The "sharpshooter" to eliminate free radicals Aging, low immunity, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, diabetes and other diseases are related to the free radicals produced in the process of metabolism in the body They will attack tissue cells and DNA Antioxidants are the "guardians" against free radicals It is found that lycopene has the strongest antioxidant capacity, 2-3 times of carotene and 100 times of vitamin E An expert in improving human immunity The occurrence of the disease is related to the decrease of immunity Lycopene can not only destroy free radicals and protect immune cells, but also increase the activity of immune cells and enhance their killing ability to cancer cells and other pathogens A strong hand for cardiovascular protection Simultaneous studies in 10 European countries confirmed that the higher the level of lycopene in the blood, the lower the risk and mortality of coronary heart disease, which was further confirmed in an Australian study on stroke prevention Lycopene can inhibit cholesterol synthesis The higher the content of lycopene in serum, the lower the probability of arteriosclerosis The protective effect on cardiovascular system of smokers is especially obvious Lycopene - men's protective net as a pillar of family and society, men are most likely to overdraw health, and diet is the basis for the body to bear the heavy task However, there are some differences between men and women in the demand for nutrients Lycopene is one of the most needed nutrients for men, so we must make sure to take some every day Lycopene is mainly found in red foods such as tomatoes, watermelons, grapefruit, etc it can clear away free radicals in prostate and protect prostate tissue American researchers followed 46000 men for six years and found that people who ate tomatoes twice or four times a week had a 26% lower risk of prostate cancer than those who did not After 13 years of research, Japanese urologists announced that lycopene can repair damaged prostate tissue, improve symptoms such as aging of prostate body and decreased resistance, and prevent recurrent prostate lesions Therefore, taking a certain amount of lycopene is equivalent to adding a layer of prostate "protective net" to men In addition to protecting the prostate, Indian researchers have recently found that lycopene can increase the number of sperm in infertile men Lycopene - women's young magic weapon the biggest threat to skin health is the attack of free radicals on skin tissue, which makes the skin lose tension and form wrinkles Sunburn, chloasma, age spots, there will be dry and gray skin In addition, UV irradiation on the skin can also stimulate the production of more free radicals in the skin and accelerate the damage to skin cells It is found that lycopene contains strong anti-oxidation and anti radiation bioactive substances, which can effectively prevent the damage of free radicals, ultraviolet rays and various external radiation on skin cells, promote the growth and regeneration of cells, maintain the normal metabolism of cells, effectively prevent spots, wrinkles and prevent aging In addition, breast cancer is also a threat to women's life and health, "killer." The results showed that tomato extract could reduce the neovascularization of breast tumor and inhibit the growth of breast tumor by reducing or blocking the supply of tumor cells With the development of the research on the antitumor properties and mechanism of lycopene, it provides a new safe and effective way to prevent and treat breast cancer How to choose lycopene products although tomatoes contain the most abundant lycopene, but eating tomatoes raw can not achieve the ideal absorption effect, only absorb other nutrients in the pulp, can not fully obtain more beneficial lycopene Nutrition experts suggest that it is better to take 4-6 mg lycopene per person per day, which is equivalent to 1-2 kg tomato per person per day, but it is unrealistic to achieve it The level of lycopene in the blood of residents in Asia is only 1 / 4 of that in European and American countries, far from meeting the needs Therefore, we should pay attention to daily supplement of lycopene Lycopene can only be separated out after the cell wall is disintegrated by heating, even in such a small amount Therefore, experts suggest that you can take some supplements, such as Taiji tomato capsule, which optimizes the molecule of lycopene in tomatoes Through science and technology, the perfect combination of lycopene and propolis can be realized, and the enteric soluble capsule that is "easy to absorb and easy to take" can be made, so that the absorption rate of lycopene in human body can be increased by 7 times A tomato capsule contains about 3 kg of lycopene We need to remind that at present, there are different kinds of lycopene products in the market When you buy, you must choose products produced by large manufacturers to ensure the quality For example, Taiji tomato capsules are all extracted and optimized from the first-class tomatoes from Tianshan, Xinjiang These tomatoes are planted at an altitude of more than 500 meters They are in a natural environment surrounded by sunshine and rain They can be taken at ease without using any pesticides, red accelerators and other harmful chemicals.
