The cooked tomato is, in general, better for the body than the raw one. Cooking will break some of the chemical bonds and make nutrients easier to digest. The concentration of phytonutrients will be increased and the bioavailability of these wonderfully healthy nutrients will improve. A number of studies have made claims that prostate cancer is considerably reduced by increasing the intake of the powerful antioxidant lycopene. Some dispute the study, but there is convincing evidence that the research is solid. And guess what! The tomato is rich in lycopene! It is also widely recognized as a heart healthy food. Many journals suggest cooking the fruit as a way to enhance its nutritional benefits.
