Try THIS food and protect your skin from sun damage.

Lycopene (lie-ko-pene), which is an anti-oxidant compound, most abundant in tomatoes, has been studied extensively for its healing properties. It’s now well documented that lypocene can protect against prostate and breast cancer. However, new studies indicate that a diet high in lycopene also benefits your skin. Lypocene acts as natural sunscreen helping you stay younger by preventing sun damage! The most exciting new fact is that increasing your intake of lypocene can reverse damage already done! Lypocene reverses the effects of photo-aging, helping your skin look smoother and increasing skins thickness.

VIB TIP: You can enjoy your tomatoes raw or cooked but heating tomatoes released even more lypocene than raw tomatoes.

PLEASE don’t forego the sunscreen for pizza! A sunscreen with a high SPF, and avoiding sun exposure between the hours of 12:00n-2:00pm is still the best way to prevent long term sun damage.
