Daily tomatoes consumption reduces risk of skin cancer

Dietary carotenoids, the pigmenting compounds that give tomatoes their colour, may protect skin against ultraviolet UV light damage.

Lycopene, the primary carotenoid in tomatoes, has been shown to be the most effective antioxidant of all the pigments.

Lycopene from tomatoes is more effective in preventing redness after exposure to ultraviolet sunlight.
Non-melanoma skin cancers are the most common of all cancers, sunlight contributes to growth of some skin cancers.

Regular consumption of tomatoes, fruits and vegetables can prevents the development of many diseases, especially skin cancer.
