Sunbathing has many benefits, so don't be afraid of tanning. Of course, sunbathing should be moderate. In order to prevent sunburn, you can start with diet and eat more sunscreen foods, such as tomatoes.

Small tomatoes contain strong antioxidants. For the human body, oxidation is aging. The antioxidant of tomato is lycopene.

A British study shows that tomatoes can resist the damage of ultraviolet rays. In other words, it has a certain degree of sunscreen function.

Lycopene has the strongest antioxidant capacity among all natural foods at present. It is also a member of carotenoid family, and it is a very good anti-aging and anti-aging substance.

So where did this thing come from? Tomatoes are the best source of natural food. It has been studied that 10 healthy people eat 2 mg of lycopene every day. Control the consumption of other kinds of antioxidants.

After two months, people who take lycopene have smaller erythema area in the sun and less damage to the skin.

Therefore, from the evidence, we can see that the antioxidant activity of lycopene in the human body will be manifested in the skin, that is, the role of sun protection.

In fact, as long as we eat tomatoes, no matter how we eat them, raw or cooked, they can give us rich nutrition and help us delay aging.

But if you want to have a higher absorption rate, cooking is better than eating raw, mainly because after cooking, lycopene is more conducive to our body's absorption.

Of course, raw tomatoes actually have some benefits, such as other water-soluble vitamins will be better preserved, but if you only eat lycopene, you'd better cook it better.

I believe everyone should know that ketchup is cooked, and then some friends will ask, if it is for sun protection, then eat more ketchup.

In fact, the content of concentrated lycopene in tomato sauce will be higher than that of tomato itself. If there are no fresh tomatoes, tomato juice is also good, but we should pay attention to choose natural tomato juice without water as much as possible.

No matter what form, no matter what method, as long as we eat some tomatoes in moderation, it is very helpful to our health, especially sunscreen will bring us more benefits.
