Question

Is there a health benefit to a tomato seed or the gel surrounding it?

Answer 1

Not sure about the tomato seed, but tomatoes are high in potassium, vitamin C and, surprisingly, fibre.

Tomatoes get their red colouring from an antioxidant called lycopene which is said to have antiviral and anti cancer properties.
