In addition, glutathione can inhibit the activity of tyrosinase, so have the hypopigmentation, anti-aging effect.

’-carotene in carrots help fight free radical destruction of insulin. Subjects with normal blood sugar, and its blood concentration of ²-carotene is the highest; glucose poor tolerance or diabetic subjects, the ²-carotene in the blood, is reduced sequentially.

Scientists have over a decade in researching twenty-six thousand adults, the results show that those likely to suffer from low blood lycopene in pancreatic cancer, and the lycopene content in the blood of patients with pancreatic cancer is relatively poor.

Ellagic acid in strawberries have efficient inhibitory effect on carcinogens polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, nitrosamines, aflatoxin and aromatic amines. Human experiments show that ellagic acid can prevent esophageal cell gene from damage, prevention of esophageal cancer. Strawberry contains aspartic acid, a natural dehydrating agent, a natural gentle way to remove the excess water in the body, and thus to achieve weight loss.

Kiwi juice can block the synthesis of N-nitrosamines, have anti-cancer effect.
