Lycopene, Lycopene is a kind of carotenoids, exists as a kind of natural pigment in nature, red, from the earliest on tomatoes were found in the name. It can destroy the singlet oxygen and suppress the height of the free radical oxidation activity, research shows that lycopene oxidation resistance is 3.2 times that of beta carotene is 100 times that of vitamin E, and it can efficiently quenching singlet oxygen and free radicals in the body, which have anti-cancer, suppressor effect and the activated immune cells, and other functions, is the strongest "scavenger" oxygen free radicals, is known as the "plant gold".

【 product introduction 】
Raw materials come from natural plant tomatoes rich in lycopene, USES the advanced extraction, refining process, the use of modern high-tech purification equipment, detection means comprehensive, precision testing instrument, the preparation of isolated effect the stability of the natural oily lycopene and powdered lycopene two series of products. Main production process is as follows:
Raw material pretreatment extraction separation) crystal drying product
1, natural tomato red oil dementholized suspension: appearance is deep red oil, content is less than 30%.
