About Tomato
A common vegetable; good raw or cooked.
Health Benefits of Tomato
A good lycopene source
Tomatoes are rich in lycopene, a natural carotenoid that gives them their red look. It has antioxidant properties, and heating plus cooking with a little oil helps absorption.
Low calorie, high water
Only 20 kcal per 100g, over 94% water - great for adding volume and satiety when controlling calories.
Raw and cooked each have strengths
Raw tomato keeps more vitamin C; cooked tomato gives better lycopene absorption. Use both ways to make the most of its nutrition.
