Tomatoes have all 4 major carotenoids: 1) alpha-caroten, 2) betacaroten, 3) lutein, and 4) lycopene. While they have individual benefits, when all four are present in a food item, they work in synergy to provide a powerful health boost.

I have started to love tomatoes, especially in sandwiches, yum yum!
Thank you for the comment, Dee. tomatoes have always been a part of my life since I was a child. My dad had a big tomato garden. The tomatoes were in most of our meals. Those meals were mainly pasta. I love the taste of a tomato picked off the vine on a hot summer’s day. Stay healthy and have a wonderful week. Ray
