The power of tomato paste seems endless. In one table spoon of tomato paste, there is one medium tomato and it has 13 calories. Our tomato paste is 100 concentrated tomato pulp so you can get the deep tomato flavor without all the extra water and stuff like salt or water.
Tomato paste is high in the super antioxidant lycopene which is one of the most powerful antioxidants in the world. Tomatoes and related tomato products are the major source of lycopene compounds. This protects your skin very effectively against damage and premature skin aging. Even better it is considered top brain food because it prevents some diseases by correcting cell corruption and protecting healthy ones.
Though lycopene can be found as a supplement, it may be most effective when consumed from lycopene-rich foods like tomatoes and other red or pink fruits
Lycopene is fat-soluble, so the oil is said to help absorption. Meaning it is better to use tomato paste in your food rather than raw consumption.
Raw tomatoes themselves don’t contain a ton of iron, but tomato paste and sun-dried tomatoes contain considerable amounts of iron.
With all that said, I bet you will never underestimate the power of tomato paste ever again!
