New to this site! A lot of posts re Lycopene? I have two tomatoes in my salad every evening, but am experiencing pain in my legs! This apparently is caused by the lectins in the core and skin
I have switched now to canned whole peeled tomatoes, and the leg pains have decreased markedly.
It is also worth noting that "force fed " tomatoes have a larger core and thicker skin.
