HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Lycopene 10 mg by Best Naturals

Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Aug 20, 2026

What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains one active ingredient: lycopene, a red pigment found naturally in tomatoes and other red fruits. It's a carotenoid (a type of antioxidant) at 10 mg per softgel capsule.

The rest is inactive ingredients — rice bran oil, gelatin, glycerin, and purified water — which help deliver the lycopene.

Does it work?

Moderate evidence
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports this product's ingredients for its stated purpose, but it isn't conclusive.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: antioxidant carotenoid for health support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Age-related macular degeneration (AMD), Atherosclerosis, Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), Cardiovascular disease (CVD), Cataracts, Hyperlipidemia — and 4 related terms.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Lycopene is rated "Possibly Effective" for Prostate cancer (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Lycopene is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Age-related macular degeneration (AMD), Atherosclerosis, Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), Cardiovascular disease (CVD), and more.

Lycopene is possibly effective for prostate cancer prevention based on the available evidence. For bladder cancer, diabetes, high cholesterol (hyperlipidemia), Lou Gehrig's disease (ALS), and exercise-induced asthma, either the evidence suggests it's possibly ineffective or there isn't enough reliable evidence to rate it.

The data we hold doesn't show strong proof it works for most of these conditions.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Lycopene

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Lycopene from food is considered safe, and supplement doses at this level are generally well tolerated. In pregnancy, food amounts are fine, but supplement doses aren't well studied — talk with your doctor before taking this if you're pregnant.

The same goes for breastfeeding: food sources are okay, but safety data on supplements is lacking. Some people report gastrointestinal side effects like diarrhea, stomach upset, nausea, or loss of appetite when taking lycopene supplements.

One case of chest pain was reported in a pregnant woman on a lycopene supplement, though the role of lycopene itself wasn't clear.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Lycopene

Meds to double-check

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Lycopene.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs.
  • For scale: 122 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

Before taking this product, check with your doctor or pharmacist if you're on any anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs — blood thinners like warfarin, apixaban, or clopidogrel, or daily aspirin. Lycopene may increase bleeding risk when combined with these medications.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Lycopene may be worth considering if you're interested in prostate health, but the evidence is limited for most other uses. If you take any blood thinner or antiplatelet medication, check with your doctor or pharmacist first — combining them could increase bleeding risk.

Talk it over with your doctor or pharmacist before starting, especially if you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or on any regular medications.

Formula

Natural Lycopene is a powerful antioxidant carotenoid and the pigment that gives tomatoes, watermelon and pink grapefruit their characteristic red color. Lycopene is one of the four main carotenoids normally found in human blood and tissue. Studies show that lycopene is a scavenger of singlet oxygen, offering powerful antioxidant protection. The body cannot convert lycopene into Vitamin A; thus lycopene is reserved exclusively for antioxidant use. Certain research publications indicate that Lycopene may help support the following: Supports cardiovascular health & immune function Supports healthy digestive system

Lycopene 10 mg by Best Naturals: Common Questions

Does Lycopene 10 mg by Best Naturals interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Lycopene 10 mg has a known interaction with 122 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Lycopene 10 mg contains a single active ingredient, and that one ingredient can interact with many different medications on its own. We check it against each medication and show the mechanism responsible.
Where does this information come from?
The product label data comes from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD); the interaction data is built on the Natural Medicines database and reviewed by HelloPharmacist pharmacists.
Is it safe to take this while I'm pregnant?
Lycopene from food is fine in pregnancy, but supplement doses haven't been well studied in pregnant people. The safety data we have isn't detailed enough to say either way — talk with your doctor before taking this if you're pregnant to weigh the risks and benefits for your situation.
What are the side effects?
Most people tolerate it well, but some report gastrointestinal effects like diarrhea, gas, stomach upset, nausea, or loss of appetite. These are usually mild, but if they bother you, mention it to your pharmacist.
Does lycopene actually work for prostate cancer?
The evidence suggests it's possibly effective for prostate cancer, which means there's some promise but it's not definitive. For other conditions like diabetes or high cholesterol, the evidence is weaker or lacking. It's not a replacement for your doctor's treatment plan.
Is it safe while breastfeeding?
Food amounts of lycopene are fine, but there isn't enough safety data on supplements during breastfeeding. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist to decide if it's right for you while nursing.
What's in this product besides lycopene?
The inactive ingredients are rice bran oil, gelatin, glycerin, and purified water — they're there to deliver the lycopene but aren't active ingredients themselves.
