If your stomach churns 20 minutes after eating, try adding more tomatoes to the sandwich. Scientists from Great Britain have discovered that vegetables have the ability to keep you full for a long time, writes the English Daily Mail.
A small group of women between the ages of 18 and 35 took part in a study at a British university. The ladies were of normal weight. For the purpose of the experiment, for several days the women were given sandwiches with melted cheese on white bread with the addition of tomatoes or carrots. Then the level of satiety was examined to determine which product satisfies hunger more.
So while researchers thought the carrot's ingredients were more filling, the tomato turned out to be the real winner in the race.
"It was a small study, and we still can't say exactly what is the ingredient that makes tomatoes so good for appetite, but the results are important statistically," said Dr. Julie Lovergrove during a nutrition conference in France.
Liposin - the ingredient that gives tomatoes their red color, is most likely the cause of satiety. The substance is only part of the list of useful ingredients that tomatoes contain.
Tomatoes are extremely valuable because they contain ingredients that have a rejuvenating effect, in addition they are extremely useful for the appearance and elasticity of the skin.
Liposin is also considered an ingredient that reduces the risk of prostate cancer.
Hunger is the cause of failure in attempts to lose weight, so nutritionists advise you to add tomatoes to meals - in addition to giving them an amazing taste, they also contain very important vitamins for the body.
