Tomato has an
antioxidant called lycopene which helps to protect
Your skin from UV
damage from sunburn. In western diet, about 85% of
Lycopene is obtained
only from tomatoes, and the best place to find them in the
Tomato paste. A study
was made on 23 women, who were asked to eat 55g of
Tomato every day, for
12 weeks ( giving them 16 mg of lycopene). After getting
Them back to lab, it
was revealed, that a 30% increase in natural skin protection
Was detected.
