What are the benefits of men eating more tomatoes?

Lycopene is a carotenoid, which has a strong antioxidant effect and is one of the strongest antioxidants found in nature at present. The effect of scavenging free radicals is far superior to other carotenoids and vitamin E, and its rate constant of quenching singlet oxygen is 100 times that of vitamin E and 3 times that of β-carotene. Lycopene is an essential healthy element for human body, which is mainly distributed in human serum and male prostate. Modern medical and biological research has proved that with the increase of age, the lycopene contained in the human body will gradually decrease, and the human body itself cannot produce lycopene, so it can only be supplemented by in vitro diet. Lack of lycopene in human body can cause prostate diseases. The human body must supplement lycopene. Lycopene can inhibit oxidative free radicals, protect prostate cells from oxidative damage, enhance their physiological activity, and inhibit and eliminate free radicals in prostate. Repair the physiological function of prostate organs The prostate of men is protected by multiple layers of reticular fibers, and it is generally not easy to have inflammation or germs. However, once infected, ordinary drugs cannot enter and it is difficult to work. Lycopene itself is an active factor, and its concentration in prostate tissue is the highest through human blood circulation. Lycopene can quench free radicals and remove toxins invading the prostate. Lycopene can penetrate the lipid capsule of prostate, enter tissues and organs, and eliminate inflammation. At the same time, restore the physiological function of prostate organs. Prevention of Recurrent Prostate Diseases: After 13 years of clinical trials, urologists in Kobe, Japan announced that lycopene can repair the damaged prostate tissue, improve the symptoms of prostate aging and decreased resistance, and prevent the recurrence of prostate diseases. The active factor protecting lycopene in prostate cells can reduce the DNA damage of prostate cells and reduce the DNA damage level of prostate tissues and cells. Protect prostate cells. Wearing a "bulletproof vest" on the prostate can remove free radicals in the prostate and protect prostate tissue. Therefore, men eat more tomatoes, which is equivalent to adding a "protective net" to their prostate and wearing a "bulletproof vest" to prevent the invasion of various pathogenic factors and make the prostate healthier. An adult needs to eat 5 kilograms of tomatoes every day to meet the body's demand for lycopene. If not, choose 1 high purity lycopene every day! Lycopene needs to be heated and cooked in oil to be fully absorbed by the human body, so eating cooked tomatoes can play a role. Professor Zhao Lin, the chief health education expert of the Ministry of Health and the nutrition department of the PLA General Hospital, pointed out in CCTV's "The Road to Health": "Now we have many prostate diseases among the elderly. How to prevent it? Eat more tomatoes quickly! Why? Because tomatoes contain very high lycopene, especially tomatoes from Xinjiang, the lycopene content is the highest in the world. Then Harvard University followed nearly 50,000 adult men for four years and found that eating a lot of things containing lycopene can reduce the incidence of prostate disease. "
