Spice It Up

Next time you're deciding which dressing to pour onto your salad, consider spooning a little bit of salsa on top instead. Naturally fat-free, salsa is a great way to add flavor without guilt. And don't stop there, try salsa instead of ketchup on a burger or fries. And it's not just a great way to cut calories, the lycopene found in the tomatoes is a proven antioxidant. A recent study showed that increased consumption of lycopene was linked to lower rates of digestive tract cancer. Other ongoing research is studying the possible link between the antioxidant and lowered risk for other cancers as well as macular degeneration. Who would have thought something so tasty could be so healthy?
