About

Lycopene is the most efficient singlet oxygen quencher among dietary carotenoids and accumulates in LDL particles where it inhibits oxidation. A 2017 meta-analysis of 6 RCTs found lycopene at 12-75 mg/day significantly reduced systolic blood pressure by 5.6 mmHg. Cooking tomatoes with fat increases lycopene bioavailability 2-3 fold.

How It Works

The most efficient singlet oxygen quencher among dietary carotenoids; accumulates in LDL particles where it inhibits oxidation more effectively than beta-carotene; reduces endothelial activation and monocyte adhesion; inhibits HMG-CoA reductase activity (statin-like mechanism) reducing cholesterol synthesis.
