Guest guest Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 Organic Ketchup Whether it's revving up our veggie burgers or toning down our barbecue sauces, ketchup is one condiment few people could live without. So squeeze more out of it by going organic. Organic ketchup packs three times more lycopene than the regular stuff and almost twice the level of flavonoids. Here's what all that extra nutrition means for your body. Love That Lycopene Lycopene gives fruits (like tomatoes!) and veggies a rich red color, and it may give your body a leg up on loads of diseases -- from cancer to clogged arteries. Check out this collection of lycopene-rich recipes from EatingWell.com. Tricks of the Trade Here are a few more tricks for getting more lycopene with less effort. Absorb 400 times more lycopene from your salsa by adding this. Choose this color tomato for more bioavailable lycopene. Do this to your watermelon before you slice it to up the lycopene content. Did You Know? The organic version of this yellow veggie may be more nutritious, too. RealAge Benefit: Eating 10 servings of tomato paste and tomato products per week can make your RealAge 1 year younger. TRY IT! The kids may not care about the benefits of organic ketchup, as long as their burger, fries, and chicken fingers are yummy. But all that extra lycopene in Organic Tomato Ketchup from Muir Glen will do their bodies good. Goddess Bless!
