Saucy Hot Tomato
Sometimes the simple things in life are the best.

A recent study found that men who consume tomato products two or more times a week can significantly reduce their chances of contracting prostate cancer.

Eating cooked tomatoes was particularly beneficial, according to the study, which showed that regularly eating tomato sauce, ketchup and other tomato-based foods lowered the prostate cancer risk by as much as 36 percent.

Dr. Edward Giovannucci of Brigham and Women's Hospital and the Harvard School of Public Health, who led the study, said it supported earlier research involving foods such as tomatoes that were high in lycopene, a powerful antioxidant.

1. It's not all that often
that what's good is also good for you. I eat tomatoes or tomato products every single day because I love 'em.
