Eat your Veggies

One of the main reasons for eating vegetables in your diet is they contain such a lot of goodness, what I am going to talk about in this post is the tomato, tomatoes contain something called lycopene there have been various studies around the world on this particular ingredient of the tomato and its properties for lowering risks of cancers is well documented this particular ingredient of the tomato works best for prostate, lung, and stomach cancers.

But there are other parts of the body where it can work as well lycopene also appears to protect both hearts and lungs against oxidative damage also, in one study, at a university in Toronto found that a couple of servings of tomato juice once every day for a week would itself stop some damage to certain proteins within the body, some other studies in Europe, tends to lend itself that it may stop the onset of a heart attack, so as you can see sometimes it pays to think about food that you're actually eating and putting in your body.

Vegetables have something in them known as the phytochemicals, these chemicals have brilliant antioxidant properties and prevent your body from getting various diseases this is also why it important to have plenty of vegetables in your diet because of the mineral content and also the properties within the food.
