RECIPE TIPS
ANTIOXIDANTS

We don’t always think of beans and pulses as being rich in protective antioxidants, but black beans rival blueberries for their flavonoid content. These plant compounds form one of the most important classes of antioxidants, helping protect the skin and body from the damaging effects of poor lifestyle choices as well as ageing.

MAKE IT VEGGIE

Instead of chicken, mash a small avocado with lime and fresh chilli, then stir in a chopped tomato, a tablespoon of finely chopped onion and fresh coriander.
