Licopeno

Natural Medicines Comprehensive Database (La Base Exhaustiva de Datos de Medicamentos Naturales) clasifica la eficacia, basada en evidencia científica, de acuerdo a la siguiente escala: Eficaz, Probablemente Eficaz, Posiblemente Eficaz, Posiblemente Ineficaz, Probablemente Ineficaz, Ineficaz, e Insuficiente Evidencia para Hacer una Determinación.

La clasificación de la eficacia para este producto es la siguiente:

Posiblemente eficaz para...

• Cancer de prostata. Tomar licopeno podría reducir levemente el riesgo de desarrollar cáncer de próstata. También podría reducir levemente el riesgo de que el cáncer de próstata regrese.

Posiblemente ineficaz para...

• Cáncer de vejiga. Las personas que consumen más licopeno en su dieta no parecen tener un riesgo menor de cáncer de vejiga.
• Diabetes. Las personas que consumen más licopeno en su dieta no parecen tener un riesgo menor de desarrollar diabetes. Además, las personas con diabetes que comen más licopeno no parecen tener un menor riesgo de morir por una enfermedad cardíaca.

Advertencias y precauciones especiales:

Moderadas

Tenga cuidado con esta combinación

Medicamentos que retardan la coagulación de la sangre (medicamentos anticoagulantes / antiplaquetarios)

El licopeno podría retardar la coagulación de la sangre. La ingesta de licopeno junto con medicamentos que también retardan la coagulación de la sangre puede aumentar el riesgo de hematomas y hemorragias.

Betacaroteno

La ingesta de betacaroteno junto con licopeno puede alterar la cantidad de licopeno que se absorbe en el intestino.

Calcio

La ingesta de calcio junto con licopeno puede disminuir la cantidad de licopeno que se absorbe en el intestino.

Hierbas y suplementos que pueden retardar la coagulación sanguínea

El licopeno podría retardar la coagulación sanguínea y aumentar el riesgo de hemorragia. Tomarlo con otros suplementos con efectos similares podría aumentar el riesgo de hemorragia en algunas personas. Ejemplos de suplementos con este efecto incluyen ajo, jengibre, ginkgo, nattokinasa y Panax ginseng.

Luteína

La ingesta de luteína junto con licopeno puede alterar la cantidad de licopeno que se absorbe en el intestino.

Los sustitutos de grasas como la olestra pueden reducir la cantidad de licopeno que absorbe el cuerpo. Olestra parece reducir los niveles de licopeno en personas sanas en aproximadamente un 30%.
