Tomato is a very common item used in our food. Experts have recently revealed that tomatoes can help prevent stomach cancer.
Stomach cancer, also known as gastric cancer, is the most common type of cancer worldwide. It can also be hereditary, but mostly it is caused by unbalanced and unhealthy dietary habits.
Long-term smokers and those who consume too much salt and spicy foods have a strong chance of getting gastric cancer.
According to a recent study, tomato ingredients prevent the growth of gastric cancer cells. Experts say that since the ingredients in the tomatoes can be eliminated because of the high heat during cooking, they should be used besides the food, such as in salads.
Lycopene, an element inside the tomato, is very beneficial to the body. Once it reaches the body, positive chemical changes occur. Earlier, the study found that tomatoes can be very effective in preventing prostate cancer.
