that The tomato could be an effective weapon for smokers against lung diseases, a study says. Tomatoes contain a powerful natural antioxidant, lycopene, which could help protect against a chronic lung disorder predominantly found in smokers, reported the online edition of Daily Mail. Scientists from the Juntendo University School of Medicine in Tokyo have found that mixing tomato juice into the drinking water of mice completely prevented them suffering emphysema triggered by tobacco smoke

I love tomatoes and i can eat it in many variations and every day. if i dont find any vegetable to cook , i simply make a soup of tomato and add boiled , mashed potatoes in it. the most i put in it is, green corainder and green chillies with it. it tastes very good and ienjoy it with curd. i can eat a lot of it. and maximum times i make this for myself. i know all the goodness and advantages of tamatoes. it is very high in lycopene and with this water melon is also a fruit which is as muchhigh in lycopene. it is very high in antioxidant which protects our bodies.

I definitely love to eat tomatoes. Hey, I'm a smoker. So, me loving to eat tomatoes is a wise choice. Its my favourite vegetable and my house must always be stocked with tomatoes. I eat at least one every day. My mum told me that its best eaten raw but I love it stewed or cooked. I love all food cooked from tomatoes.
Its like me loving to eat garlic. I think I have all bad habits but I eat healthily to combat it. Hahaha...
