Daily oral supplementation with Lyc-O-Mato, a natural lycopene complex extracted from red ripe tomatoes from LycoRed Corp, enhanced the protective properties of the skin against environmental stress and reduced premature aging and wrinkles, according to a new study conducted by world renowned dermatologist Zoe Diana Draelos, MD.

In the 10-week study, one group was supplemented daily with Lyc-O-Mato capsules and the second group was supplemented with a placebo (soy oil). After the supplementation period, the subjects were exposed to two MEDs of UVB and UVA radiation. Skin biopsies taken from the volunteers were analyzed to determine the number of sunburn cells formed after the exposure to radiation. Sunburn cells are dead cells, indicative of DNA damage caused by UVB and UVA light. The number of sunburn cells found for the Lyc-O-Mato group was significantly lower as compared to the number found for the placebo control group. Fewer sunburn cells indicate less skin damage, which can manifest itself as premature aging and wrinkles. For further information: www.lycored.com
