近日英国曼彻斯特大学的一个研究小组发现,番茄红素(番茄中的红色物质)在防范辐射伤害方面效果十分明显。放疗是很多肿瘤的治疗方式,但是放疗的副作用常常限制了其治疗效果。该研究发现番茄素在防护γ辐射引起的损伤方面十分有效,因此,对饮食进行调节是降低辐射伤害的有用手段。在烹饪番茄时添加食用油有助于人体对番茄素的吸收,这种 Recently a research team at the University of Manchester in England found that lycopene (the red substance in tomatoes) is very effective in preventing radiation damage. Radiation therapy is the treatment of many tumors, but the side effects of radiation often limit its effectiveness. The study found that lycopene is very effective in protecting against gamma radiation-induced damage, so adjusting the diet is a useful means of reducing radiation damage. When cooking tomatoes add cooking oil helps the body absorb the tomato, this
