Many nutritionists consider tomatoes both vegetables and fruits. Tomatoes contain lycopene, which give the salad staple its rosy red color. Research has shown that lycopene supports vascular health and helps prevent cardiovascular disease.
While consuming tomatoes raw can provide lycopene, cooking them may also increase the bioavailability of this mighty antioxidant. Either way you can't go wrong!
