Hi,
Tomatoes are now eaten freely throughout the world, and their consumption is believed to benefit the heart among other organs. They contain lycopene–one of the most powerful natural antioxidants. In some studies, lycopene, especially in cooked tomatoes, has been found to help prevent prostate cancer but other research contradicts this claim. Lycopene has also been shown to improve the skin’s ability to protect itself against harmful UV rays. Natural genetic variation in tomatoes and their wild relatives have given a genetic treasure trove of genes that produce lycopene, carotene, anthocyanin and other antioxidants.
