'Ateronon' is reported to be the first supplement to make lycopene bio-available. Will the consumption of tomatoes similar to that of the typical Mediterranean diet do the same thing?Why is the lycopene consumed by Mediterranean people more bio-available?
1st Off....There will ALWAYS be 'alerts' reported by a 'supplement Company. THAT''S their 'job'....All supplements/vitamins, etc. still need the one main thing...How much is absorbed' by the body. Lycopene is highest/prevalent in 'cooked' Tomatoes. Consequently, if you consume ANY Tomato/Spaghetti Sauces, you ARE getting the Lycopene.
Try to keep it in perspective...The Mediterranean Diet is 'highly' regarded as very very healthful. The 'cooked' Tomato Sauces are only a part of it...It also has a ton of Fresh Fruits/Vegetables, Legumes (Beans) Olive Oil, etc....
So, (2-me) available, just means that one has to 'digest it...Like everything else...Let your body do it's wonderful 'magic' %26amp; get the nutrients from the Food you put in2 it...The Tomato Sauce is a part of the 'fuel'....
