Peaches, which are peaking right now, are high in antioxidants like vitamin C and lycopene, making them a beauty food and an immune-system booster. So if stress from the week (or packing for vacation) is making your skin dull and your head throb, let the free-radical-fighting fruit give you a boost. Basil elevates both the flavor of the fruit and your mood with its anti-anxiety benefits. (FYI: Holy basil lowers cortisol or stress levels.) Find the simple—delicious!—recipe at Well+GoodNYC’s Peach Basil Boost.
