Benefits

Healthy blood pressure

In a double-blind randomized dose-response trial, a tomato nutrient complex supported healthy blood pressure, an effect not seen with isolated lycopene alone.

Supported by Trial 1

Antioxidant defense

The tomato carotenoids are potent antioxidants that help protect cells and LDL cholesterol from oxidation.

Supported by Trial 1

Cardiovascular support

By supporting blood pressure and reducing oxidized LDL, the complex supports overall cardiovascular health.
