lycopene what is lycopene lycopene is a  phytonutrient maybe you’ve heard about it in  

tomatoes but it’s also in grapefruit gogi berries  something called gac which is the melon in asia  

gak has the most lycopene of anything natural out  there it’s also an asparagus parsley and basil now  

there’s a couple things that are interesting about  lycopene number one the bioavailability of it  

the ability for it to absorb in your body and  even be concentrated occurs when you heat the  

substance like tomatoes for example so when  you consume canned tomatoes or tomato paste  

you’re going to consume lycopene four times  the amount in raw tomatoes and then if you  

added olive oil with it you’re really going to  increase the absorption because lycopene is a fat  

soluble phytonutrient which means it requires  bile and when you add fat you help the absorption  

so let’s see what would be a good combination  of let’s see basil tomato sauce and olive oil  

oh that’s right spaghetti sauce right but here’s  what lycopene is good for an enlarged prostate

blood lipids like cholesterol it’s a very powerful  antioxidant it can act as an anti-inflammatory
