Everyone knows that we should eat five portions of fruit and veg every day. But are all these foods equal? One fruit in particular has become the focus of increasing research attention. It's delicious, inexpensive and virtually free from any adverse effects - the humble tomato.

Pharmacist Ron Levin, who spent most of his career with leading-edge medical research companies, and science writer Gerard Cheshire, present The Red Bodyguard, a deft mixture of fascinating popular science and practical health advice.

They explain why and how tomatoes offer the prospect of better health, especially those aged 40 and over, and why processed tomatoes are the best tomatoes of all. The risk of developing major chronic diseases, such as coronary heart disease, and prostate cancer in men, are those most likely to be reduced by this incredible fruit.

Read The Red Bodyguard and you'll never turn down a tomato again.
