Tomato is a source of antioxidants (related to the prevention of degenerative and cardiovascular diseases such as cancer, cataracts and heart disease), especially vitamin E and to a lesser extent of vitamin C.

It also contains beta -carotenes and flavonoids, such as quercitin and lycopine (this is the one that confers the typical red color), also with preventive potential, especially in terms of prostate problems.

Another interesting element is potassium, although this mineral loses its effect if the tomato is taken in prepared juice, due to its high salt content.
