Tomatoes are effective in relieving and detoxifying inflammation. As the main antioxidant, lycopene in tomatoes has a strong anti-inflammatory effect. It reduces the inflammatory response by inhibiting the activities of genes and enzymes that cause inflammation. In addition, lycopene prevents cell damage through its antioxidant properties. Lycopene is resistant to heat, so it is a good idea to take it as a soup because it is not destroyed even when cooked. Studies have shown that just eating a bowl of tomato soup a day reduced oxidative DNA damage in white blood cells by 21.3 percent. Beta-carotene in tomatoes is converted to vitamin A in the body, which plays an important role in strengthening immune function and reducing inflammation.
