Get Anti-aging Antioxidants in Your Food: Make Thai Red Curry with Eggplant!

Sunday February 26, 2006
Eggplant is an Anti-aging Food Want to add some anti-aging foods to your diet? Then eggplant should definitely be on the menu. With its deep purple color, eggplant offers the same kind of antioxidant power you get with blueberries and other purple-colored fruit. Interestingly, researchers have found that seniors who eat eggplant regularly have firmer, younger-looking skin. So you'd like to add more eggplant to your diet, but aren't sure how to cook it? Try my vegetarian Thai Red Curry with Eggplant Recipe , which also includes other veggies like sweet potatoes, shiitake mushrooms, and Thai holy basil. It's a delicious way to get your greens and load up on anti-aging antioxidants!
