Red meds: boost your health with lycopene. (wellness).(tomatos)
They're delicious fresh from the garden, simmered into a sauce or used as the basis for Mom's homemade soup. In fact, tomatoes are among the world's most versatile fruits. But chefs aren't the only ones singing the tomato's praises.
Culinary merits aside, the tomato has been identified by medical researchers as a prime natural source of lycopene, one of the most beneficial antioxidants. A growing body of evidence links lycopene intake with a decreased risk of heart disease; lung, stomach and prostate cancers; and possibly with a decreased risk of cancers of the breast, esophagus, cervix, colon, pancreas, rectum and oral cavity.
