These vegetables are very healthy and helpful in general.

Hmmm, red jalapenos and ghost/scorpion peppers must qualify then.................

When I saw “Red Vegetables” I instantly thought of Senators Sander and Clinton!

Lycopene for prostate health, is not a secret.

[AnotherUnixGeek]

Hopefully red peppers are on that list - love those things.

[butlerweave]

does ketchup count ?

[meadsjn]

red vegetables, like tomatoes, apricots, guavas and watermelons

Aren't all those fruits? Must be the new math.

[Jane Long]

Lycopene is also good for heart and may help prevent or slow down progression of macular degeneration.

what about beets? I hate tomatoes but I love beets ..

[chuckles]

This is just not true! I eat tomatoes like others eat apples. I love watermelon and the other fruits also and am just 5 years cancer free this month. I've eaten tomatoes all my life like snacks and salads. many times I would slice a couple of tomatoes and put cucumber slices in and use Italian dressing for my meal. I never make a sandwich without a full covering of tomato on it.

What is fact is there was no one in my cancer group that wasn't low on Vitamin D. I don't know if lack of D lets the cancer grow or the cancer steals your vitamin D, but everyone was made to take massive vitamin D capsules. I say keep your D up and it may fight cancer formation.

Since I switched to a lady doctor, I’m happy they can do that test now with a blood panel.

If I ate everything that has been determined to be healthy I would weigh 500 pounds.

Yesterday there was a post that said eating nuts lowered the risk to colon cancer. When I read the article, peanuts were included as nuts even though they are a legume. In this case, I had better eat my beets.

I like tomatoes, but in the supermarkets and even in specialty stores such as Whole Foods, they mostly come from Mexico, and I avoid produce from that country.
