He kuleana koʻikoʻi nā Antioxidants i loko o ko mākou kino ma ka pale ʻana i ka pōʻino i hoʻokumu ʻia e nā radical manuahi, ʻo ia nā molekole paʻa ʻole e hiki ke hōʻino i nā cell a kōkua i ka ulu ʻana o nā maʻi maʻi.

Nui nā pono olakino e pili ana i ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka lycopene, ʻo kekahi o ia mau mea i hōʻike ʻia ma lalo nei:

Hoemi i ka pilikia o na ma'i mau
Ua hōʻike ʻia nā haʻawina ʻo ka ʻai mau ʻana i nā meaʻai waiwai nui i ka lycopene hiki ke kōkua i ka hōʻemi ʻana i ka pilikia o nā maʻi maʻi e like me ka maʻi puʻuwai, ka maʻi kanesa a me ka maʻi diabetes. Ua hōʻike ʻia ʻo Lycopene e kōkua i ka pale ʻana i ka LDL cholesterol maikaʻi ʻole mai ka oxidizing, hiki ke alakaʻi i ke kūkulu ʻana o ka plaque i loko o nā aʻa a hoʻonui i ka pilikia o ka maʻi puʻuwai. Eia kekahi, ua ʻike ʻia ka lycopene i nā waiwai anti-cancer ma muli o kona hiki ke pale i nā cell mai ka pōʻino a keʻakeʻa i ka ulu ʻana o nā cell cancerous.

Kākoʻo i ke ola kino maka
Ua ʻike ʻia ʻo Lycopene i ke kākoʻo ʻana i ke olakino o ka maka ma o ka pale ʻana i ka macular degeneration e pili ana i ka makahiki, nā cataracts a me nā pilikia ʻē aʻe. Kōkua kona mau waiwai antioxidant i ka pale ʻana i ka lens o ka maka a hoʻoikaika i ka ʻike olakino.

Pale ʻana i ke ola kino ʻili
Ua ʻike ʻia ʻo Lycopene e kōkua i ka pale ʻana i ka ʻili mai ka pōʻino o ka lā ma o ka hōʻemi ʻana i ka mumū a me ka pale ʻana i ke kaumaha oxidative. ʻO ka pōʻino o ka lā kekahi o nā kumu nui o ka ʻelemakule mua a me ka maʻi kanesa ʻili, a hiki i ka lycopene ke kōkua i ka pale ʻana i kēia mau ʻano ma o ka pale ʻana i nā radical manuahi i hoʻokumu ʻia e ka lā.

Hoʻomaikaʻi i ka hānau kāne kāne
Ua ʻike nā haʻawina he hopena maikaʻi ka lycopene i ka ulu kāne kāne ma o ka hoʻomaikaʻi ʻana i ka maikaʻi o ka sperm a me ka helu. ʻO kēia ma muli o kāna mau waiwai antioxidant, e pale ana i ka sperm mai ka pōʻino oxidative a hoʻomaikaʻi i ka motility.
