We have a glut of tomatoes this year, so I'm eating them for breakfast,
lunch and dinner, is it safe to eat such large amounts?

Can too much lycopene be bad for you?

If I knew what lycopene is, I might be able to say!(:-)

Datsy has answered you. It seems that it is present more in cooked
tomatoes than raw but it's a Good Thing. If you purée and freeze your toms
you will do yourself even more good.
