In addition to tomato juice, you need to drink 2 liters of mineral water without gas, tea and coffee with milk for breakfast are allowed. For the duration of the diet, discard salty and fatty foods. Season the salad with herbs and spices.
Noma along with low-fat milk, kefir, potatoes, spinach, fish, bananas, brown bread, beans, and vegetable oil are among the top ten foods that Australian scientists believe contain all the substances necessary for the body. Researchers say that if you regularly include all these products on the menu, then, under other favorable conditions, you can live up to 90 years, while maintaining vigor, youthfulness, and clarity of mind. In some varieties of tomatoes, up to 24 useful chemical elements were discovered.
An interesting fact is that although fresh tomatoes are an ideal food for filling up mineral losses in the body, boiled tomatoes are most useful because they have more lycopene, an antioxidant pigment that reduces the risk of developing cardiovascular and oncological diseases.
This diet combines the use of boiled and fresh tomatoes. The chromium which is a part of tomatoes promotes faster saturation and prevents attacks of brutal appetite.
