Tomatoes contain lycopene, a carotenoid (in the same family as beta-carotene) that appears to protect against prostate cancer. Any form of tomato can help—fresh or canned, in sauces and in soups. Even the sauce on pizza is good for you, as long as you go easy on the meat toppings, which are high in saturated fat. For a two-barreled attack on prostate cancer, I suggest making a sandwich with my Even Better Prosnut Butter (see recipe on page 206) and washing it down with a glass of tomato juice. For myself, I like to munch cherry tomatoes right off the vine.

Thus, ironically, giving too much of one carotenoid decreases the others, and may paradoxically lower one's resistance to cancer. The Synthetic Carotene Issue The distinction between natural and synthetic supplements is controversial, but scientists have shown there can be important differences between the two. As noted, CARET participants were given a synthetic form of beta-carotene. This may have affected the results.

High carotene intake may also offer significant benefit to the immune system, as the thymus gland is largely composed of epithelial cells. The thymus gland undergoes a process of involution (shrinking) during normal aging and stress. This is largely a result of free-radical damage. Since carotenes are concentrated in the epithelial cells of the thymus, they are able to significantly lessen thymus-gland involution. In addition, studies have shown that thymus-gland-mediated immune functions could be improved with carotene supplementation (see Immune Support). evolve.

The authors also stress that the duration of such studies must be at least ten years for valid conclusions to be drawn. (8) One of the longest longitudinal trials ever conducted studied 1,556 men over a period of twenty-four years [158]. The results showed that high levels of intake of beta-carotene and vitamin C led to a 20-30 percent decrease in the death rate from both heart disease and cancer.
