A blood thinner

The lipid in human blood serum ate mainly triglycerides, cholesterol, phospholipids. Most of them combine with protein as compounds named as lipoprotein. It can be divided into low density lipoprotein (LDL) and high density lipoprotein (HDL).
If LDL in the blood is very high,  the wall of artery vessels may become narrow, atherosclerosis occurs and the risks of having heart attack increases. That is why LDL is referred to as "bad" cholesterol.
When HDL in the blood is abundant, it protects against heart disease by taking the "bad" cholesterol out of the blood and keeping it from building up in the arteries. So HDL is referred to as "good" cholesterol.
Both β- Carotene and Lycopene are very effective to elder and senior people to prevents blood embolism and reduces the risks of heart attack.
