During heat treatment, some vegetables become several times more useful. It's all about their active substances, the properties of which only increase when heated.

These vegetables include tomatoes. They are rich in lycopene. It is this substance that becomes three times more effective during heat treatment.

How is lycopene useful? It has an antiplatelet effect. That is, this substance thins the blood. As a result, the risk of heart attack and stroke is reduced.

Lycopene also prevents the deposition of fat in the pancreas, which makes it work better. In other words, tomatoes can prevent the development of a disease such as pancreatitis.

Lycopene is also useful for the eyes. Vision problems begin due to oxidative stress, resulting in the formation of free radicals. They destroy the tissues and vessels of the retina. A substance contained in tomatoes can slow down these processes.

Lastly, this substance can suppress the progression of prostate cancer. The fact is that lycopene has anti-inflammatory properties and antioxidant activity.

Experts noted that the most useful preparations are tomato paste and pickled tomatoes. In the process of cooking, they are heated many times, due to which the useful properties are enhanced to the maximum.
