Lycopene super foods (includes melon, red bell peppers & tomato sauce) The nutrient lypcopene is a simple pigment and a member of the same family of phytochemicals as carotene. This chemical is behind the red colour of quite a few types of food. Unlike numerous other nutrients, this useful phytochemical is not damaged if it is cooked, but is in fact strengthened by being heated. . Its most interesting value is that it is an antioxidant and appears to be an asset in the battle to reduce the risks of developing cancer. It is the most effective carotenoid quencher of singlet oxygen, which is connected with aging of the skin. It is also thought to block the growth of diseases affecting arterial blood vessels.

"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
