Lycopene is a dietary supplement formulated to promote prostate gland health and antioxidant activity. Lycopene is available in capsules from Natura-Genics®.
How It Works
Lycopene is a carotenoid, which are red, yellow, or orange pigments that give any of those colors to plants and vegetables. It is found in fruits and vegetables such as tomatoes, watermelon, and grapefruits. Lycopene is a powerful antioxidant that promotes protection against free radicals and oxidative damage.
The prostate has several roles in a male’s body. The most important is producing seminal fluid, a component of semen. It also plays a role in hormone production and regulating urine flow. Prostate gland problems are common, which makes preventative steps beneficial. As an antioxidant, lycopene may promote a decrease in cell damage and slow down dangerous cell production. Studies have shown that higher consumption of lycopene may be associated with a lower risk of developing some prostate conditions.
Lycopene is a powerful antioxidant in the carotenoid family, protecting the body from damage caused by free radicals. An imbalance between antioxidants and free radicals has been linked to certain health conditions. Antioxidants such as lycopene promote cell health by protecting them from oxidative stress. Lycopene, through its antioxidant benefits, may support the well-being of cells in parts of the body such as the skin, brain, eyes, and even bones.
