What is lycopene?

Lycopene (from the New Latin word lycopersicum, referring to the tomato species) is a bright red carotene and carotenoid pigment and phytochemical found in tomatoes and other red fruits and vegetables, such as red carrots, red bell peppers, watermelons, gac, and papayas (but not strawberries or cherries).

Lycopene is not an essential nutrient for humans, but is commonly found in the diet, mainly from dishes prepared from tomatoes. When absorbed from the stomach, lycopene is transported in the blood by various lipoproteins and accumulates in the liver, adrenal glands, and testes.

 

Lycopene may play a role in the prevention and/or treatment of the following health conditions:

•     Age-related macular degeneration

•     Breast cancer

•     Cardiovascular disease

•     Cataracts

•     Cervical cancer

•     Exercise-induced asthma
