We apologize with all our customers & friends for any inconvenience caused by our unexpected closure. Unfortunatly, due to a scam made by James Preston, former director of Veganroutes Ltd, we had to put the company on hold to resolve legal issues. ...but do not worry, we will start again our adventure very soon!!

 | Peppers, sweetcorn, yellow pumpkins, grapefruit, lemons, pineapples. Why? For carotenoids. Yellow fruit and veg are also good sources of two yellow compounds, lutein and zeakanthin, which are major pigments in the eye. Studies show that those who eat more of these compounds have a lower risk of developing age-related macular degeneration (AMD), a common cause of blindness in later life. Another compound, this time found in the rinds of citrus fruits, is limonene, a compound that boosts liver enzymes involved in detoxifying cancer-causing chemicals. |

Carrots, peppers, sweet potatoes, butternut squash, apricots, mangoes. Why? Carotenoids are key ingredients of orange fruit and veg. Other important ingredients include bioflavonoids, chemical compounds that, according to research, decrease inflammation and work to stop or slow the development of cancer, heart disease and neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's. Bioflavonoids also act as natural antibiotics and help to prevent against food poisoning. Carotenoids are best absorbed in the presence of fat, so flavour cooked carrots with a dash of walnut, olive or sesame oil. |  |

Put a rainbow on your plate: red choices |
|
|
|
| | Beetroot, red onions, red potatoes, peppers, rhubarb, tomatoes, cherries. Why? For Iycopene, a powerful carotenoid found in red, orange and yellow fruit and veg. Carotenoids are turned into the antioxidant vitamin A in the body, which helps to guard against damage by free radicals. Also, good communication between cells is vital to halt cancer, and carotenoids appear to enhance this. Several studies have shown that Iycopene may protect against prostate cancer. Red fruit and veg are also a source of anthocyanins. Tomatoes are richest in Iycopene if cooked, so go for sauces and purees. |

We hear more and more people talking about organic products, we see posters in shops and supermarkets advertising organic farming products, but how many of us really know what does it mean, which are the requirements for a product to be called organic. To have healthy and quality food we need to follow a naturally armonic way of production. The organic farmic methods are following a “clean” way, in perfect armony with the nature which excludes the use of chemical products. The aim of these methods is to produce food that keeps its natural properties, to retrieve biodiversity preserving the integrity of the territory. This is a way that appears essential to improve the life quality and the environment. Consumers start to be more conscious! |
