Reasons to eat tomatoes every day
A tomato contains about 2-3 g of lycopene, which has many health benefits. Interestingly, tomato juice contains more lycopene than raw tomatoes.
protect your skin
A scientific report published in the American Library of Medicine (MedPub) in 2017 found that tomatoes offer protection from harmful UV rays and may reduce the risk of sunburn. Researchers believe this is due to the high concentration of carotenoids, a component of lycopene, a micronutrient with antioxidant properties, the pigment that gives the fruit its red and pink color.
However, scientists have also confirmed that eating tomatoes cannot replace sunscreen. In addition to this health benefit, some evidence suggests that tomatoes have anti-aging properties.

good for the heart
Lycopene is an antioxidant that protects the cells in your body from oxidation. The 2014 study “Comparison of Clinical Evidence of Tomato Consumption and Lycopene Supplementation Against Cardiovascular Risk” found that people who ate foods with lycopene had an increased risk of heart disease, diabetes and stroke.
Lycopene lowers bad cholesterol and blood pressure, which lowers the risk of heart disease. In addition, tomatoes are a rich source of other vitamins and nutrients like vitamins B, E, and flavonoids that help improve heart health.
improve eyesight
In addition to lycopene, tomatoes also contain other nutrients like lutein and beta-carotene that are good for your eyes. Research shows this nutrient protects the eyes from diseases like cataracts while supporting overall eye health.
Tomatoes also contain substances, notably zeaxanthin and lutein, that protect vision from the blue light emitted by digital devices (like smartphones). They also help relieve headaches caused by pain in the eyes.
Improve your immune system
The lycopene in tomatoes also reduces molecules that damage cells and weaken the immune system. Tomatoes therefore help reduce the risk of lung, prostate or stomach cancer.
strengthen your bones
Tomatoes can promote bone health. They are a good source of bone-strengthening substances like vitamin K and calcium, which not only keep bones in good shape but also help repair bone tissue.
improve mood
Tomatoes are rich in minerals like copper, zinc and manganese. Tomatoes can also have a positive effect on brain function and mood. So if you’re feeling pale or tired, you can count on the minerals in this food.
good for the hair
Tomatoes contain important vitamins like A, B, C and E which are great nutrients for healthy hair. These vitamins help prevent hair loss, create a natural shine, treat dandruff and odor from the scalp. Eating around 4-5 tomatoes a day will help keep hair beautiful and shiny.
You don’t have to eat it, you can put some tomato on your hair, leave it on for 15 minutes before washing it with cold water. The vitamin C in tomatoes treats skin issues like dandruff while also increasing collagen for proper skin tissue growth.
For dry and itchy skin, apply the tomato puree and oil mixture regularly. If you are a swimmer, apply tomato juice to your skin and hair after each swim and then rinse and rinse to reduce chlorine.
Tomato helps to lose weight.
They’re a great low-carb (sugar, starch, fiber) snack for dieters as they’re high in fiber and water and will keep you full for longer. Tomatoes also contain chromium, which helps regulate blood sugar and keep blood sugar balanced.
good for the lungs
Lycopene’s antioxidant properties can protect your body from respiratory problems. Tomatoes contain beta-carotene, which improves lung function. It can also delay aging of the lungs. Some studies show that tomatoes can reverse lung damage caused by smoking.
Improve heart health
Studies have shown that lycopene helps with gum disease, gingivitis, and periodontitis. However, be careful not to eat too many raw tomatoes. Since they are very acidic, they can damage tooth enamel. You should wait at least 30 minutes before brushing your teeth or rinsing your mouth after eating tomatoes.
