'Super tomato' may help slow aging

Italian farmers say they've produced a super tomato with a higher concentration of lycopene than regular tomatoes that can help slow the aging process.

The super tomatoes were displayed at a trade fair in Rome where various people made passata, a tomato concentrate. The developers of the super tomato also say that the new variety hasn't lost any rich tomato flavoring.

The super tomato was grown naturally in Emilia, Romagna, and Lombardy and was not genetically modified.

And now British scientists say they've developed a super tomato as well. So keep your eyes open for the super tomato.
