摘要
Tomatoes, as an agricultural product, represent an important commodity worldwide and comprise a significant part of the human diet. They are one of the most versatile and widely used fruits, being consumed in the raw state and used for the preparation of a wide range of products. Tomatoes and tomato products are rich in antioxidant compounds such as carotenoids (particularly lycopene), ascorbic acid and phenolic compounds. The regular consumption of tomatoes and tomato products has been correlated to a reduction in risk of contracting various types of cancer and cardiovascular diseases. This positive effect is attributed to the antioxidants present in tomatoes.
