I say tomato

Tomatoes contain lycopene, a powerful cancer fighter. These veggies are also rich in vitamin C. The British Thoracic Society says that tomatoes and apples can reduce your risk of asthma and chronic lung diseases.

Take action

To enjoy the benefits, eat five apples a week or a tomato every other day. Cooked tomatoes are also nutritious, so use them in pasta, soups and casseroles, as well as in salads.
