Nutritional values

Sweet potatoes, tomatoes and almonds combine the classic cell protection trio of vitamins A, C and E and thus offer natural protection against free radicals; these aggressive oxygen compounds are created, among other things, by extended sunbathing (UV radiation).

Those who value a high fibre supply can use fine wholemeal wheat bread instead of white bread.
