Eating pizza can have a lot of benefits for you.

Pizza is popular for a reason: it's tasty, amazingly fast to make and one of the most effective ways to say "Yum!" while getting your nutrition, hands on.  How can you be sure that Pizza is actually good for you? Well, to start with, you need to know some basics of this amazing and delicious dish.  Let's break it down for you to make your mind on your own! 

1. Pizza helps to fight cancer – In all pizzas, the key ingredient is tomato sauce which is known as lycopene. The tomato sauce present in pizza is a potent antioxidant which helps in fighting cancer and protect from other heart diseases.
2. Sauce and oregano to boost immunity – Apart from its cancer-fighting properties, the sauce present in pizza topping is great to boost your immunity. The sauce used in making pizza is loaded with vitamin C and helps to prevent from illness such as cold. Likewise, oregano used for garnishing also helps in protecting the liver and also balance the blood sugar level.
3. Mostly contains nutritious ingredients – In one of the popular fitness & health magazines, it was suggested that instead of eating fluffy pizzas, eat thin crust pizzas. Yes, thin crust pizzas are good for your health as these are made with whole grains which have multi-nutrition properties. Eating thin crust pizzas made of whole grains will make you feel fuller. Moreover, it lowers the risks of stroke and diabetes.
4. Pizzas are filled with all food groups – No doubt that pizza comes in the junk food category but pizzas are filled with the goodness of all fresh fruits and vegetables. Pizza is the only food item which includes garden-fresh fruits, vegetables, dairy, lean meat and grain. Right from your fruit intake to dairy component, meat chunks and whole wheat crust, you will get everything in your pizza.
5. Boost your brain – Pineapple and spinach pizzas are proven to be good for the brain. Yes, spinach has a rich source of folate which helps to stimulate the health brain circulation in the brain. Therefore, spinach and pineapple are considered as the serotonin boosters in most of the pizzas.
