Superfoods containing lycopene
(includes apricot, red bell peppers & cochinchin gourd)

The nutrient lypcopene is a naturally occurring pigment and part of the same group of phytochemicals as carotene. This chemical is accountable for the vivid red hue of many fruit and vegetables.

Unlike many nutrients, it is not damaged during the cooking process, but is noticeably increased in efficacy by being heated.

. Lycoprene's most valuable nutritional contribution is that it is an antioxidant and appears to be an asset in the fight to lower the probabilty of cancer.

Lycopene is the most potent carotenoid quencher of singlet oxygen, which is associated with skin aging. It's also believed to curtail the progression of atherosclerosis.

"A good cook is the peculiar gift of the gods. He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate, from the palate to the finger's end.
"Walter Savage Landor"


"A diet is the penalty we pay for exceeding the feed limit."

"Reality check: you can never, ever, use weight loss to solve problems that are not related to your weight. At your goal weight or not, you still have to live with yourself and deal with your problems. You will still have the same husband, the same job, the same kids, and the same life. Losing weight is not a cure for life"
Phillip C. McGraw
