Skin Care Protection

Getting protection from summer's alkalizing ultra- violet sun rays interacting with dietary and metabolic acids on the skin could be as simple as eating alkalizing foods made with tomato sauce. Researchers at Manchester and Newcastle universities in the United Kingdom found that eating five tomatoes a day helped protect against both sunburn and premature aging. Researchers studied the skin of twenty people. Half were given five tablespoons of tomato paste (the equivalent of five or six cooked tomatoes) with olive oil and the other half was just given olive oil.
