Tomatoes and Lycopene

I harvested quite a few tomatoes yesterday enough to use for my home cooking agenda (wink). After these batch of tomatoes, I will plant some more in another area. Moving them is the right thing to do because the direct 12 hours sunlight is too much for these delicate plant. We love tomatoes because it is rich in Lycopene which have beneficial health effect. It is an antioxidant and consumption of tomatoes decreased the risk of cancer and strongly protect against neurodegenerative diseases. Tomatoes and tomato sauces as well as puree are said to help lower urinary tract symptoms. It also reduces cardiovascular risk associated with type 2 diabetes.Nothing could go wrong right? Wash it thoroughly when you eat them raw, just my two cents.
