Tomato juice has amazing health benefits, and makes a really tasty drink. It tastes great on it's own and combined with other juices, flavors and spices. Tomato juice is a healthy, tasty drink that can help rejuvenate your energy. Experiment with different spices and flavors to find your favorite flavor. You can also combine tomato juice with apples, but we recommend you do not mix with any other fruits. New medical research suggests that having lycopene in your diet may help prevent cancer. Lycopene can be found in tomatoes, and is best in a concentrated form or as fresh juice. The study involved 30 men with localized prostate cancer who were scheduled to undergo surgical removal of the prostate. For three weeks before the surgery, the men were arbitrarily selected to receive either a 15-milligram capsule of lycopene as a pure tomato extract, twice a day, or no intervention. Following removal of the prostates, the glands were analyzed to decide whether there were any differences between the two groups studied. The investigators established that the group treated with lycopene supplements had smaller tumors; the cancer was more frequently restricted to the prostate, meaning the cancer did not spread to nearby tissue and organs. Levels of serum PSA (prostate specific antigen, a universal marker used to identify prostate cancer) actually decreased during the 3-week period that the men took the lycopene supplement. In addition, the tumors in participants who consumed lycopene showed signs of regression and decreased tumor. Another study has indicated that tomato juice contains a factor which inhibits platelets in blood from clumping together and forming blood clots. Although it has never been studied, it has been noted that this may be beneficial to diabetes sufferers. The study had found that tomato juice actually thinned the blood of people with type-two diabetes. The juice had reduced "Platelet aggregation", (the ability for the blood to clot.) The study included 14 men and 6 women, aged 43 to 82 with type-two diabetes, and without any history of blood clotting difficulties. Neither of the participants were taking aspirin. The participants were arbitrarily selected to consume 250 millilitters of tomato juice, or a placebo, tomato flavored beverage, every day for three weeks. They were told to maintain their normal diet. Blood samples were collected at the beginning and at the end of the study, and then analyzed. Platelet aggregation had dramatically decreased by the end of the trial for those drinking the pure tomato juice. Those drinking the placebo juice had no relevant changes in their platelet aggregation.

Jewel's Great Canned Tomato Juice Ingredients: Fresh raw tomatoes, fully ripe and unpeeled 1 tsp canning salt per quart Instructions: The amount of canning supplies will depend on the quantity of tomatoes you are working with. Do not peel red ripe tomatoes, just cut into quarters and remove hard core from center. Put 3 to 4 blenders full of tomatoes that have been blended well into boiling pot on medium high heat. The blending will help by giving you some juice to start off with. Boil all of the cut up tomatoes until peelings are tender, about one hour, stirring frequently. Let cool. Dip by dippers full into blender and briefly blend, then run through juicer. You should have nothing left but a few peelings and the seed. After juicing is complete, put one teaspoon salt into quart jars, have canning funnel ready and the hot/boiling jar lids and rings. You can blend other vegetables now, if desired (or you can run these vegetables through the blender first - your choice); just juice them and add to the tomato juice. Blended carrots, celery, etc can be added, but an alternative method is to add these at the beginning to boil along with the sliced tomatoes. Heat juice to the boiling point and fill quart jars, sealing them with lids and rings. When seven jars are filled, have canner hot with two quarts of water inside. Place jars in hot water in canner and can on five pounds pressure for ten minutes. Turn out onto counter top with a towel placed on top to guard against the heat. Don't move the jars until the next day when jars have had time to completely cool. Be sure that you don't place the jars to cool in a drafty place.
