The NIHR-funded study looked at selenium, calcium and tomatoes all found previously to make a positive contribution. An 18% reduction in risk was found where men ate over 10 portions of tomatoes per week. Tomatoes and tomato products (from sauce to baked beans) contain lycopene, which is not only a powerful anti-oxidant but reduces fat levels in the blood stream. Cooked tomatoes are the best source as they more readily release lycopene.
