Stock up on tomatoes this

summer: They contain high

amounts of lycopene,

an antioxidant that has

been shown to help

protect your skin

from UV damage

and sunburns.

Plus, a recent

study published

in the journal

Food Science &

Nutrition found that

consuming unsalted

tomato juice can help

lower blood pressure

and cholesterol. Get

your tomato fix with the

grilled caprese on page 38.

To Your Health

Here’s what’s extra good for you in this issue.

Keep Eating Kale!

Looking Good

Next time you fire up the grill, throw

some kale on there, too—it’s good

for your liver! According to recent

research from Texas A&M University,

a natural compound called indole

found in kale and other cruciferous

vegetables—like cabbage, cauliflower

and brussels sprouts—can help fight

fatty liver disease.

Try a grilled kale

Caesar salad!

Go Big on

Breakfast

According to a study in The Journal of

Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism,

eating a big meal at breakfast

instead of at dinner might

help prevent obesity

and keep blood sugar

levels in check.

Researchers found

that participants'

metabolisms

worked twice as

hard in the morning

than in the evening,

so their bodies burned

more ca lories at the

beginning of the day. Find this

hearty grilled breakfast on page 39.
