Superfoods containing lycopene (includes watermelon, red peppers & tomato sauce) The phytochemical lycopene is a simple pigment and one of the carotenid family of phytochemicals. This chemical is accountable for the dark red colour of quite a few foods. Unlike most other healthy agents, it is not damaged if it is cooked, rather it is actually strengthened by being cooked. . Lycoprene's most valuable benefit is that it serves as an antioxidant and is believed to be of use in the fight to lower the chances of contracting cancer. Lycopene is the most effective remover of singlet oxygen, which is linked with skin aging. It is also thought to curtail the growth of atherosclerosis.
