Osavi's Lycomato6 tomato extract provides 15 mg of lycopene per softgel, supplemented with five other tomato phytonutrients. All packaged in a softgel with MCT oil. One capsule per day, with a meal. Simple.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSix substances from the tomato in one capsule\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat many people don't know: lycopene is just one of the interesting substances in a tomato. Lycomato6 tomato extract contains six. In addition to lycopene, it contains natural tocopherols (a form of vitamin E), plus phytoene, phytofluene, beta-carotene, and phytosterols. This combination mimics the natural profile of the tomato, but in a concentrated form. The difference with a supplement that contains only isolated lycopene? You get a broader range of substances here, exactly as they occur in the tomato fruit. That is the idea behind a so-called whole extract: not extracting one substance, but preserving the whole.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA softgel with MCT oil\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLycopene is fat-soluble. That is why this tomato extract is dissolved in MCT oil (medium-chain triglycerides) in a softgel, instead of as a dry powder in a tablet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e15 mg of lycopene, and what that means in practice\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach softgel contains 15 mg of lycopene. In addition, each softgel provides 214.3 mg of the complete Lycomato6 extract. That extract is standardized: 7% lycopene, 1.5% natural tocopherols, 1% phytoene and phytofluene, 0.2% beta-carotene, and 1% phytosterols. This standardization means that every capsule has the same composition, regardless of the batch. This way, you know exactly what you are getting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eLycopene from tomatoes, and why ripeness matters\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLycopene gives the tomato its red color. The riper and redder the tomato, the more lycopene it contains. A raw tomato provides an average of three to five milligrams, so you would have to eat a handful to get the 15 mg from this softgel. In this extract, the lycopene is concentrated and dissolved in oil. For those who prefer to get their daily lycopene from a fixed source rather than from varying meals, this is a practical choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn short: Lycomato6 is a standardized tomato extract with 15 mg of lycopene and five additional tomato phytonutrients per softgel, in a fat base of MCT oil. A compact way to consume lycopene daily, with one capsule per day with a meal.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Osavi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53207292281170,"sku":"Osavi-044","price":20.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/9006\/2812\/files\/Lycomato60softgelsOsavi.jpg?v=1776253110","url":"https:\/\/www.luto-supplements.nl\/en\/products\/lycomato6-lycopeen-15mg","provider":"LUTO Supplements","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
