About tomatoes
Livanjsko polje
Poma Toma tomatoes come from the Livno area, i.e. from the Livno field in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Livanjsko polje is the largest wet habitat in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and is rich in plant and bird life, but it is also a karst fault, surrounded by high rugged mountains, and part of Tropolje.
The idea itself is to show the taste of our tomatoes to the whole world, but we would also like to show our region, Livno, and the nature itself along with it. Poma Toma has 5 years of founding and working on tomatoes and is constantly pushing our goals and boundaries.
Healthy effects of tomatoes
Tomatoes are loaded with a substance called lycopene. It gives them their bright red color and helps protect them from the sun's ultraviolet rays. In the same way, it can help protect your cells from damage.
Lycopene is an antioxidant – it fights molecules called free radicals that can damage your cells and affect your immune system. Because of this, foods rich in lycopene, like tomatoes, may make you less likely to get lung, stomach, or prostate cancer. Some research suggests they may help prevent diseases of the pancreas, colon, throat, mouth, breast, and cervix.
