TL;DR: The available evidence on the effects of tomato products and lycopene supplementation on CV risk factors supports the view that increasing the intake of these has positive effects on blood lipids, blood pressure and endothelial function.

TL;DR: This comprehensive meta-analysis suggests that high-intakes or high-serum concentration of lycopene are associated with significant reductions in the risk of stroke, mortality and CVDs.

TL;DR: New information that phenolic compounds thought to exert vasoactive properties are bioavailable in vivo following MC consumption and subsequently can influence cell behaviour is shown.

TL;DR: Subgroup analysis determined reduced risk of CHD and CVD mortality was more prominent for Anthocyanidin intake, as opposed to anthocyanin or berries, and there was no relationship between the intake of these compounds and reducing risk of MI, stroke or total CVD.

TL;DR: The method was successfully applied for quantification of six B vitamins from a fortified food product and is, to the authors' knowledge, the first to simultaneously determine multiple water-soluble vitamins extracted from a food matrix using HILIC.
