Tomatoes on Steroids

Why Eat Well?
Organic ketchup packs three times more lycopene than the regular stuff and almost twice the level of flavonoids.

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.
Just because good things are in your salsa doesn't mean you're getting all the good out of it. If you toss some avocado chunks into the spicy red stuff, you'll absorb 400 percent more lycopene from the tomatoes.

Topping spinach salad with half a cup of sliced avocado helps you absorb 14 times more beta carotene from the greens. Lycopene and beta carotene are fat-soluble carotenoids -- meaning they need to piggyback with fat to be absorbed in your small intestine. Avocado, olive oil, pine nuts . . . any source of healthful fat will do the trick.
