You say tomato...

The hype over tomatoes, specifically the chemical lycopene in the ruby red fruit, is not something a supplement maker can cash in on. So rules the FDA.

Lycopenes, which are in abudance when tomatoes are cooked, has been shown in lab studies to stop the proliferation of several types of cancer cells with especially encouraging results for prostate cancer. But does that rise to the level of something you could or should be taking in a pill?

The FDA says no... and rejected the petition by a supplement maker to tout lycopene as a cancer preventer.

As the American Institute for Cancer Research says - despite our desire to find a super food, there really isn't one ... it's about eating a diet rich in fruits and veggies- as all the chemicals in these foods work together to work their magic - that pulling one out does not make for better health.
