Excerpted from the Dallas Morning News, 3.04.07 Jennifer Thompson, a clinical dietitian with Baylor University Medical Center says, “The antioxidants in fruits and vegetables help repair damaged tissue. During everyday living, we are exposed to a number of factors that can damage tissue. The body is always in a state of repairing itself, and adequate nutrition helps repair the body.

It still comes down to the common sense that our mothers told us. You are better off getting the nutrition through food as opposed to supplements.”
