Purple tomatoes cancer prevention

Perhaps some of the color of tomato is known to be red, or yellow. However, now the scientists developed a purple tomato that is rather dark. Results of genetic engineering of tomatoes was the womb have a lot of nutrition can cure cancer disease.

Scientists reveal the origin of English at this time that they develop a middle of a tomato on the other. Purple tomato is claimed can help human health, especially in healing the disease of cancer.

Currently purple tomato is tested in the middle of a rat exposed to cancer were identified. The first mouse, the scientists were given a diet with a strict food purple tomatoes, while the second mouse to a standard diet with no Feed from the purple tomatoes.

The result is truly extraordinary, the mice were given purple tomato has a long lifespan that is very long, compared with mice not given the fruit. And there is the possibility that mice were given tomato will gradually recover from the disease.

"The effect is greater than what we expected before," said Martin, one of the scientists. From the results of the scientists trying to create tomatoes that contain many additional genes anthocanin with snapdragon flower. So that the tomato is usually changed to red purple.

Unfortunately, the tomato was successfully prevent cancer cells in mice are not applied to the human in the near future. According to scientists in a network cell of the human being is far more complex.

"Changes in diet, or the specification of components, capable of fact to help the animal health. And we believe it can happen in humans," added Martin again.
