The Power Of Tomatoes
Tomatoes are among the National Cancer Institute\’s \”second line of defence\” foods (right behind carrots and broccoli) and one of the three richest known sources of the antioxidant lycopene, a potent anticancer carotenoid (also found in red peppers and pink grapefruit).
Antioxidants for damage control
There are more than 1500 recognised antioxidants and related phyto-chemicals in everyday common foods that do an uncommonly good job of combating free radicals in the body – those substances released internally during the process of oxidation and formed externally by environmental forces such as radiation, X-rays, drugs, pesticides, air and water pollutants, hydrocarbons, food additives, alcohol, smoking – you name it. Free radicals damage living cells and contribute to a continuing roll call of complaints, including interference with DNA programming, premature aging, heart disease, AIDS, arthritis, cancer, cataracts, allergies and diabetes.
