Nonetheless, they are an excellent sources of antioxidants, dietary fiber, minerals, and vitamins.

Lycopene, a flavonoid antioxidant, is a unique phytochemical compound found in the tomatoes. Red variety fruits tend to possess more of this antioxidant.

Studies shows that lycopene protects the skin from ultra-violet (UV) rays and thus offers some defence against skin cancer.
