I don't have any questions, I just wanted to thank you for bringing life back to me.
I was so sick and now I am feeling as good as I did twenty years ago! It has been a long battle: no energy, aches and pains going from one
Dr. to the next. They told me it was anything from arthritis to depression; they had me on steroids for three years... All behind me now!
I just don't know how to thank you. I think it would be wonderful if you could just be everywhere with your caring heart. Information and the
real reason behind all of the bad, sick days that so many of us have had.
Sincerely, Jessica...@telusplanet.net

A study done by Nestlé and L'Oreal now show that taking lactolycopene supplements can help boost skin levels of beta-carotene and lycopene. These two compounds in the skin help protect aginast UVA and UVB radiation. Lycopene, an antioxidant, has been shown to benefit blood pressure, heart, osteoporosis, prostate, and skin. It is commonly found in food supplements and cosmeceutical applications. Since lycopene is not very absorbable, lactolycopene is used. Lactolycopene is lycopene oleoresin embedded in whey protein matrix.
The double-blind placebo-controlled randomized study found that people who took lactolycopene (25 mg lycopene) experienced increases in lycopene and beta-carotene levels in the skin. Oral supplementation of lycopene affected the enrichment of beta-carotene in human skin. Experts attribute this to the fact that carotenoids act in the skin as protection chains, with a natural protection against free radicals.
Skin lycopene levels were also connected with skin roughness, a sign of aging skin. Daily supplementation of tomato lycopene is recommended for protecting the skin from photo-damage and environmental pollutants and keeping the skin smooth.
