Lycopene

Lycopene is an antioxidant. Estimates suggest 85% of the American dietary intake of lycopene comes from tomatoes and tomato products.  Some foods that are good sources of lycopene are tomatoes, watermelon, guava, papaya, apricots, pink grapefruit, blood oranges, and other foods.

Many studies have found that a high intake of lycopene coincides with reduced a incidence of cancer, cardiovascular disease, and macular degeneration. Estimates of lycopene consumption have been based on reported tomato intake, not on the use of lycopene supplements. Since tomatoes have other nutrients including vitamin C, Folate, and potassium, it is not certain that lycopene itself is the nutrient that is beneficial in these findings.
