Superfoods containing lycopene (includes watermelon, red peppers & spiny bitter gourd) The chemical lypcopene is a naturally occurring chemical compound and one of the phytochemical group known as 'carotenids'. This chemical is responsible for the red color of some fruit, vegetables and pulses. Fortunately, unlike numerous vitamins, this useful phytochemical does not become less effective if subjected to heat, but is really strengthened by cooking. . Lycoprene's main advantage is that it works as an antioxidant and appears to be of use in the battle to reduce the risks of cancer. This useful phytochemical is the strongest fighter of singlet oxygen, which is linked with skin aging. It is also thought by many researchers to hamper the growth of atherosclerosis. Superfoods containing flavonoids (inlcudes lettuce, kale, scarlet runner bean & cayenne) The compounds known as flavonoids found in these fruits and vegetables are believed to be helpful in preventing cancer. Experts who have been studying the effects of flavonoids suspect that they may well have many health giving properties, including, but not limited to, anti-asthma and antitumor properties. A good number are also good for weight loss, so are ideal for including in your diet system. |
