Many people like to eat after peeling because they are afraid of pesticides. In fact, tomato belongs to solanaceae fruit, and its pesticide residue is the least among all kinds of vegetables, so don't worry too much about pesticide residue. Moreover, because the peel of tomato is very thin, it has little effect on the release of lycopene from pulp when it is processed or eaten. On the contrary, in the process of intentional peeling, lycopene will easily be lost with the juice. Moreover, tomato skin is mainly dietary fiber, which helps to maintain intestinal health after eating. Second, tomatoes with yogurt are rich in lycopene, but it is most useful only if it is absorbed by the human body.

If you just take tomatoes as a fruit to supplement vitamin C, or clear away heat and relieve summer heat in midsummer, it is better to eat them raw. Second, it is not advisable to eat on an empty stomach. Gastric acid secretion increases on an empty stomach, because tomatoes contain a lot of gum, fruit, persimmon powder, soluble astringents and other ingredients. These chemicals are easy to form water-insoluble lumps when combined with gastric acid, which often cause abdominal pain, stomach discomfort and flatulence. Third, immature cyan tomatoes should not be eaten because they contain toxic solanine. Eating immature cyan tomatoes will make you feel bitter and overeating. In severe cases, it will lead to poisoning, dizziness, nausea, general malaise, vomiting and general fatigue, and even life-threatening in severe cases. Fourth, it is not suitable for long-term high-temperature heating, because lycopene is easy to decompose when exposed to light, heat and oxygen, and loses its health care function. Therefore, long-term high-temperature heating should be avoided when cooking. Five, should not eat tomatoes with vegetation, because this vegetation is a tumor.
