Tomato Extract Lycopene Powder 5%

What is Tomato Extract Lycopene Powder?

Lycopene is a type of carotenoid found in vegetables and fruits such as tomatoes, guava, watermelon, papaya, and pink grapefruit. Lycopene powder is a strong antioxidant, better able to scavenge reactive oxygen species, thus blocking oxidative damage, and observational studies have found it to be associated with a reduced risk of cardiovascular disease and some cancers.

Green Spring Technology supplies Tomato Extract Lycopene Powder 5%, the raw material is derived from non-GMO tomato varieties, using CO2 supercritical extraction technology, highly concentrated. It enhances the stability of lycopene, room temperature extraction can reduce the destruction of lycopene, the extraction rate of lycopene is higher, and avoids the residue of organic solvents and odor, green, and pollution-free.

This Tomato Extract Lycopene Powder adopts microcapsule embedding technology, lycopene is in the natural state of long-term preservation, 3-5 years without degradation; in addition, it is also able to resist the erosion of gastric acid, in the human body and does not dissolve in the stomach, to reach the human body only dissolved in the small intestine, and is absorbed by all of the small intestine, the rate of absorption is almost up to 100 percent.

Established in 2000, Green Spring Technology is a professional supplier of plant extracts. We are committed to providing natural, safe, and organic plant extracts. All the products we offer implement the highest international industry standards, which comply with EU EC396, EU 2023/915 standards, and the highest solvent residue standards.

Benefits:

Antioxidant

Lycopene can burst mono-linear oxygen or capture peroxyl radicals by physical and chemical means. Single-linear oxygen is a highly reactive oxygen radical with cytotoxic effects, with the cell membrane, mitochondria, and other parts the most sensitive to it, and can interact with a variety of biological macromolecules in the cell, through the molecular binding caused by the damage to the cell membrane system.

Lycopene powder can accept the energy of the different electronically excited states, absorbing light energy and through the process of single-linear - single-linear energy transfer to the energy of the single-linear oxygen to lycopene, generating basal oxygen molecules and triple-linear molecules. The energy of unilinear oxygen is transferred to lycopene, generating basal oxygen molecules and triplet lycopene molecules, which are regenerated through a series of spinning and vibrational reactions with the solvent, and in the process, the energy is dissipated.

Inhibit Prostate Disease

Male prostatitis outside the double-layer mesh structure of chemical fibers, generally difficult to have inflammation or pathogenic bacteria, but after the infection of the general medicine is difficult to see the effect, lycopene according to the body protein transported to the whole body of human organs, in the male testicles, male prostate concentration value of the largest. Lycopene can quench oxygen free radicals, and eliminate endotoxins invading the male prostate, thus reasonably preventing the male prostate from producing disease. Tomato extract lycopene powder can also adjust the semen, so that the PH value is maintained at 6-6.5, presenting a comfortable natural environment for the activities of male spermatozoa, improving the specificity of spermatozoa, and enhancing the male reproductive function.

Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease

Research has proved that tomatoes or tomato products can reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, in the study of acute myocardial infarction and antioxidant levels, through the myocardial infarction after tissue sections found that only lycopene in the carotenoids have a protective effect; at the same time, the plasma amount of low lycopene and the risk of developing coronary artery disease and mortality were correlated.

Lycopene powder can significantly reduce serum total cholesterol (TC), and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) content, improve lipid metabolism, and reduce low-density lipoprotein cholesterol LDLC) on the endothelium of the direct damaging effect, but also through the reduction of triglyceride (TG) in the arterial tissues the deposition of atherosclerosis can be delayed.

Enhancement of Immunity

Studies have found that lycopene powder can activate immune cells, protect phagocytes from their oxidative damage, promote the proliferation of T and B lymphocytes, stimulate the function of effector T-cells, promote the production of certain interleukins and inhibit the generation of inflammatory mediators, enhance the body's immunity.

Inhibition of Mutagenesis

The cell gap junction communication function is weak or absent in most tumors, and the cell gap junction communication function is reduced or inhibited after the cells transform. The inhibition or destruction of the cell gap junction communication function is considered to be an important mechanism in the pro-carcinogenic stage. Tomato extract lycopene powder may activate CX43mRNA and increase the amount of Cx- 43 protein to regulate the cell gap junction communication function and play a role in cancer prevention and anti-cancer.

Skin Protection

Lycopene can effectively inhibit and remove free radicals, preventing external radiation, and UV damage to the skin. External sunlight, ultraviolet rays, and radiation will have a greater impact on the skin, accelerating the aging of the skin, wrinkles, pigmentation, and so on. Studies have shown that tomato extract lycopene powder has a strong role in reducing oxidative damage to tissues and can form a barrier on the skin surface to protect the skin from damage.

Radiation Resistance

The functional test of lycopene shows that when exposed to strong radiation, lycopene can significantly increase the number of white blood cells in the human blood; Effectively protecting SOD in the human body; Therefore, lycopene powder can prevent UV damage to the skin and resist radiation.

Applications:

In Cosmetics:

Tomato extract lycopene powder is used in sunscreens, a typical product to prevent UV burns and protect the skin, and in creams for cosmetic purposes and to slow down the aging process.GNPD data show that there are 81 new products for skin care and 51 for color cosmetics that contain lycopene. Typical products such as lycopene moisturizing lotion have whitening and anti-aging effects.

For Health Products:

Lycopene powder aids in antioxidant delayed aging, and enhancement of immunity, and can be used to assist in lowering blood pressure, treatment of hypercholesterolemia healthy food.

Henkel Company in the United States and Makhtshim Company in Japan have produced medicines with lycopene as the main active ingredient, whose main effects include lowering blood pressure, treating high blood cholesterol, high blood lipids, lowering cancer cells, etc., and which have more significant therapeutic effects. At present, there are few reports of domestic application of lycopene powder as a raw material for medicines.

In the Food Field:

In 2006, JECFA concluded that tomato extract lycopene powder could be used as a colorant and nutrient supplement. China has approved the use of lycopene as a colorant and food additive in food processing. In meat products, because of its strong antioxidant properties, it can be used as a preservative and colorant to improve the color of meat.
