Medical advice for men to eat grilled tomatoes What are the benefits of them?

Dr. Alexander Sysoev, an oncologist, points out that the rapid pace of economic growth has brought us the so-called diseases of civilization, including types of cancer that were previously uncommon.

The doctor says: “One of the main reasons for the spread of prostate cancer among men is a diet rich in meat and dairy products, and it has become clear that the disease is more prevalent in the United States, Europe and Russia, compared to its spread in Asia.”

The specialist points out that the risk of developing this cancer increases with age, as it is observed to be widespread among men aged 60-70 years and older. Oncologists link this condition to changes in prostate tissue that occur with age. As for men under the age of 40, one case is diagnosed in 10,000 people.

According to him, genetics plays a major role in the development of prostate cancer. Chronic prostatitis also develops into cancer. Chronic prostatitis is associated with a diet high in animal fats. For example, dairy products, butter and red meat contain a high percentage of omega-6 saturated acids, and their regular consumption negatively affects the prostate gland and its function. In addition, the risk of cancer increases with an imbalance between beneficial omega-3 fatty acids and harmful trans fats. It has been scientifically proven that eating vegetables, soy products and fish has a positive effect on prostate health.

According to him, it turns out that men eating 3-4 tomato dishes helps maintain prostate health. So what's the secret? It turns out that the secret lies in the high content of lycopene antioxidant in tomatoes , and what's interesting is that its percentage increases significantly when tomatoes are heat-treated, meaning that the benefits of grilled and cooked tomatoes multiply several times.
