One such carotenoid is Beta-carotene Powder, which has some similarities and some differences to Lycopene 98% that are worth noting.
·1.Both are antioxidants.
·2.Beta-carotene is the precursor of vitamin A. Lycopene is not a precursor of any vitamin.
·3.Lycopene has not been shown to have long-lasting or permanently damaging side effects from overconsumption. However, vitamin A from beta-carotene is toxic, although this is only true in cases of over-supplementation rather than dietary intake.
·4.The body can filter out all unnecessary lycopene and beta-carotene when ingested in the diet.
·5.Both have anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties.
· 6.Both protect against cognitive decline and eye disease.
·7.Tomato has the highest content of lycopene. You will get the most beta-carotene per serving in peppers.
·8.Beta-carotene supplements may negatively interact with many medications, including statins, orlistat, some cholesterol-lowering medications, and mineral oil. Lycopene creates potential complications when combined with blood thinners, fertility drugs, nicotine, and several other classes of dangerous drugs.
·9.There is an association between high beta-carotene levels and the incidence of smoking-related cancers. There is no known link between lycopene and a higher risk of cancer.
