Red

Vegetables and fruits in the RED group contain
phytochemicals, like lycopene and anthocyanins.
Lycopene is being studied for its potential role to reduce the risk of some cancers,including prostate cancer. Anthocyanins are being examined for their possible role in delaying several diseases associated with aging.

Add a sprinkle of brown sugar, orange juice, nutmeg and cinnamon to mashed squash, sweet potatoes or canned pureed pumpkin.
