Product analysis
Lycopene 15 mg combines a lycopene extract with vitamins A and E, but the extract amount does not confirm how much active lycopene a serving provides. Checking that amount matters when comparing it with alternatives for heart health.
AI assessment of the formula, label and price. How scoring works
Nutrient Quality38
The vitamin A and E forms are identified, but their relative quality remains uncertain. The lycopene preparation is unspecified, which further limits comparison.
Ingredient Transparency88
Amounts are listed for the named ingredients, and the vitamin forms are disclosed. The lycopene preparation is not identified, and the extract amount does not confirm its active lycopene content.
Value For Money47
The lycopene price comparison appears favorable, but its active amount needs clarification. The vitamins cannot be judged reliably for value, so the full formula remains difficult to compare.
Customer Satisfaction72
Several hundred customers give generally positive feedback. Those opinions do not establish a benefit for heart health.
Product Focus30
The intended heart-health role is difficult to judge because the active lycopene amount is unresolved. The accompanying vitamin E amount does not establish sufficient support for that purpose.

Goals
Impact
Situational effect
Vitamin E · 3.2 mgLycopene · 200 mg
The label facts identify 200 mg Lyc-O-Mato extract, but they do not show how much active lycopene is present per serving; the product title's 15 mg cannot be confirmed from this record. With that amount unresolved, the formula has no confirmed pathway coverage or effective amount for this goal. Vitamin E is listed at 3.2 mg, below its comparison amount.
How this product is rated for Cardiovascular Support
Ingredient fit43
The lycopene-related ingredient fits the goal, but vitamin A is off-goal and the active amount remains unclear.
Goal fit
The formula is linked to only two goals, though vitamin A is an off-goal active.
Dose adequacy
The label facts give extract mass but no normalized active lycopene amount, leaving its dose unknown.
Pathways0
No cardiovascular pathway receives enough confirmed contribution from the available ingredient facts.
Depth
None of the listed pathways has confirmed coverage from an effective amount.
Breadth
No pathway reaches the level needed to count toward the breadth target.
Evidence0
The lycopene amount cannot be established, so no ingredient is confirmed at an effective dose in a studied preparation.
Evidence strength
No credited ingredient reaches the amount needed to count as effective in this comparison.
Studied preparation
No ingredient is both at an effective dose and confirmed in a studied preparation.
Formulation logic75
No partner or conflict issue is identified, but the lycopene amount does not clear the effective-dose cutoff.
Partner coverage
The credited ingredient works alone or has its required partner.
Conflicts
No matched ingredient conflicts appear in the supplied facts.
Effective doses
The lycopene amount per serving is unknown, so it cannot meet the comparison amount.
