HE'S RIGHT...THE SECRET IS IN THE SAUCE...AND AN ANTI CANCER CAUSING

LYCOPENE IS ALSO FOUND IN GRAPEFRUITS AND WATERMELONS...BUT IT'S MOST
PROFOUND IN TOMATOES...ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY'VE BEEN COOKED INTO A

A SLICE OF PIZZA CAN CONTAIN ABOUT 500 CALORIES AND ALMOST HALF A DAY'S
WORTH OF SATURATED FAT, EATING TOO MUCH CAN INCREASE YOUR RISK OF HEART
