Materials

Preparation
- Wash and clean the tomatoes from the green part.

Another information
Tomatoes contain sugars, vitamins A and C, calcium and iron, as well as the highest amount of lycopene, which helps bind calcium to bones.
The recommended daily dose of lycopene is at least 10000 µg. This sounds like a high figure but if you eat 1-2 tomatoes a day you will exceed this.
Lycopene is fat-soluble and is therefore much better absorbed by the body in the presence of fats, which is why we also used olive oil.
Lycopene, the active substance in red fruits and vegetables, has numerous health benefits. It fights atherosclerosis, diabetes, asthma, free radicals (molecules or ions that can damage healthy cells and the immune system).
Studies have shown the benefits of lycopene in fighting breast, pancreatic, prostate, skin, ovarian, stomach, vision deterioration with age, cataracts, cardiovascular disease. By improving circulation at the cellular level, lycopene prevents tumor tissue formation. Lycopene is also believed to prevent neoplastic, degenerative and Alzheimer's diseases.
As a potent antioxidant, lycopene not only protects cells from oxidative stress but also strengthens cell membranes.
Consumption of lycopene may increase the skin's ability to protect itself against UV burns.
