I have two tomato plants that bloomed late this Fall. They have 4 tomatoes in total. I harvested my first tomato this weekend and it is a beauty. (Actually, it fell of the dying tree/vine.)

Did you know tomatoes are a beauty food? Here are three benefits of eating tomatoes.

1. Tomatoes are a good source of Vitamin A promotes healthy skin.

2. Tomatoes contain lycopene which is believed to boosts collagen which keeps your skin firm and young. Who needs a collagen shot when you can eat a tomatoe?!

3. Tomatoes are a good source of Vitamin C, an antioxidant and natural antihistamine.

Tomatoes have also been said to minimize the risk of stroke, Parkinson’s disease, cancer and even improves sleep, I could go on but you can do the research for more details. Right?

Needless to say, I’ll be eating this “itsy bitsy” fruit by itself. After all, its not everyday you get to harvest a tomato in the dead of Winter.

Celebrating a Natural. Beautiful. You.
