What is useful - cold tomato soup with cucumber and chili
The redder the tomato, the more lycopene it contains. In addition, tomatoes are an excellent source of folic acid, vitamin C and potassium.
Cucumber juice is traditionally used as a sedative for cystitis and, according to some reports, helps fight intestinal parasites such as worms. Cucumber is a good source of silicon, a mineral that helps strengthen bones.
When using ready-made tomato juice, pay attention to the salt content in it. The red color gives tomatoes the pigment lycopene, known for its antioxidant properties. Large-scale studies confirm that those who consume large amounts of lycopene-rich foods have a lower risk of developing prostate, cervical, skin, bladder, breast, lung, and digestive tract cancers.
