Tomato is more than a delicious vegetable. This most popular vegetable is good for our health in many aspects. It contains lycopene, one of nature's most powerful carotenoid antioxidants. We've already known its benefits in lowering the risk of prostate cancer, preventing diarrhea, soothing eye irritation, cleansing and revitalizing the skin, healing sunburn, healing wounds and sores, supporting liver health and heart health.

Now a new study suggests a dietary derived from this magic vegetable may help reduce moderate hypertension. Israeli researchers found a daily dose of tomato extract helped lower blood pressure among a small group of men and women with slightly elevated blood pressure. On average, their systolic pressure and diastolic pressure dropped 10 points and 4 points respectively.
