Improve Your Health With A Movie Treat!
Are you a movie lover? Do you prefer going to a movie or watching
one at home? Well, either way-just make sure to partake in a snack
that's been associated with movies for over a century now.
The Snack: Popcorn.
How can this snack improve your health?
In 2 ways.
a) Prevent Strokes-
A cup a day, can slash your risk by a whopping 55%. The fiber in
popcorn helps to lower bad cholesterol levels, keeping arteries clear
and preventing the formation of the blood clots that are behind
most strokes.
b) Boost Moods-
Yes, need a mood boost? A cup or two of popcorn increases levels
of trytophan, the amino acid that produces the feel-good neurotransmitter
serotonin, by 45%.
c) Some tips about the movie snack-
Make sure the popcorn is air-popped and not cooked in oil.
Make sure to avoid the extra butter and salt.
Make sure to have your popcorn with a glass of mineral
water, distilled water, seltzer or diluted fruit juice. No Soda!
If yoy miss the butter and salt, try garlic or onion powder,
or cinnamon or grated cheese.
And lastly, Popcorn will not cause problems with your intestines,
unfortunately, that's a myth that's still around today.
There you have it- hopes this helps you sort out, "should I
have the Sno-Caps, or a small box of popcorn?"
The choice is spelled out for you.
Good Luck!
