What pregnancy and breastfeeding information do you have regarding Lycopene?
There is not enough scientific research to recommend use of lycopene supplements during pregnancy and breastfeeding. In one study, lycopene components were found in samples of human breast milk, at approximately 10 percent of blood concentrations. Amounts of lycopene found in foods are usually assumed to be safe. Tomato consumption has been shown to increase lycopene concentrations in breast milk and plasma of lactating women.
