ATERONON is a "one-a-day" food supplement shown to inhibit oxidation of LDL cholesterol by up to 90% after 2 months of daily use. ATERONON is the first & only lycopene-based supplement to have proven bioavailability of lycopene. In its natural form lycopene from tomatoes is difficult for the human body to absorb. However, after 10 years of research Scientists at Cambridge University, Cambridge theranostics *, developed a new formulation, so the body can now easily absorb & benefit from this important antioxidant. Scientific studies of the Mediterranean diet have helped to reveal that the tomato-derived antioxidant lycopene is one of the key ingredients contributing to these enhanced levels of health. Lycopene inhibits the oxidation of LDL cholesterol, an important component in maintaining a healthy circulatory system. ATERONON should be taken with food on an ongoing basis. It is best taken each day in order to maintain effective levels of the antioxidant lycopene in the body. A regular intake helps to continue to inhibit the oxidation of LDL cholesterol & reduce the risk of plaque build-up in the arteries. ATERONON is not intended to replace a balanced diet or a healthy lifestyle. As with other supplements, we recommend that you talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using ATERONON if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, suffer from food allergies or are taking any medication. It is unsuitable for those with food allergies to tomato, whey protein or soy. As ATERONON is a food supplement, it is possible to take it alongside prescription medication, however, if you have any questions you should consult your GP or Pharmacist. * Cambridge Theranostics are a bio-technology spin-out of Cambridge University, originally funded by The British Heart Foundation).
