Tomato Ketchup
This tomato ketchup provides plenty of lycopene, which activates the immune system and protects the body's cells against free radicals. Additionally, garlic supports the intestines, ensures a healthy cardiovascular system and can have a positive effect on high blood pressure.
Make sure you buy really ripe and organic tomatoes so that the ketchup tastes flavorful.
