Nutritional values

Here the full cardiovascular prevention program is bubbling in the soup pot. Crop protection substances such as lycopene and the dye quercetin from tomatoes protect against free radicals that can attack the blood vessels. And the potassium-rich celery has a gentle draining effect and thus promotes healthy blood pressure levels. The fibre from buckwheat helps to keep cholesterol levels in check.

Tinned tomatoes are by no means the 2nd choice when things have to be done quickly or when aromatic fresh tomatoes are not available. They contain even more cell protecting lycopene than fresh tomatoes!
