Research: Eating more tomatoes helps to prevent cancer, lose weight and control blood sugar.
After Lian Yiting's menopause, the probability of breast cancer will increase, but the research of Rutgers University points out that if you can take more lycopene from your diet, the risk of breast cancer will decrease. The study was published in the journal Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism. Lycopene in tomatoes is a strong antioxidant. Lycopene was previously found in Canada to prevent breast cancer. If you take 25 mg of lycopene every day, you can achieve the preventive effect. Rutgers University conducted a 20-week study on 70 postmenopausal women. In the first 65,438+00 weeks, these women are required to have enough lycopene in their diet, that is, at least 25 mg per day. In the second 65,438+00 weeks, these women need to have plenty of beans (40g/day). In addition, before starting the experiment, everyone was asked not to eat any beans or tomato products. The results showed that when these women's diets were rich in lycopene, their adiponectin increased by 9% on average. Adiponectin is a hormone that regulates fat and blood sugar, but when women eat a diet rich in beans, it will reduce adiponectin, and low adiponectin will increase the risk of obesity and insulin resistance. The researchers pointed out that the lower the body mass index, the more significant the effect. Researchers say that eating tomatoes or foods rich in lycopene is effective, even if it is only eaten for a short time. In addition, they also stressed the importance of these foods in preventing obesity, because lycopene can increase adiponectin, which will help women who want to maintain a healthy weight.
