Lycopene foods (includes water melon, red peppers & spiny bitter gourd) The phytochemical lycopene is a non-synthetic pigment and part of the carotenid family. It is behind the vivid red colour of quite a few types of food. Unlike numerous other vitamins, it is not damaged if it is cooked, but is essentially strengthened by going through the cooking process. . Lycoprene's most interesting nutritional contribution is that it is an antioxidant and is thought to help to reduce the chances of cancer.
