Modern Family and Today's Diet!
Sofia Vergara the popular star of the ABC hit- "Modern Family"
has just been named the highest paid actress on television.
Some other actresses to join the list: Tina Fey and Eva Longoria.
Ms. Vergara comes from Columbia and studied to become a dentist.
Like a lot of people who come from South American countries, Ms.
Vergara ate her share of rice and beans. And if you hear Ms. Vergara
now, she talks a great deal about her love of food. All Food!
If she's following the typical "American" diet and not the diet she
followed as a young girl, she may be in big trouble.
How so?
New research says the more meals you eat that contain rice and beans,
the longer you'll live. Need proof? Look at the Okinawans from Japan,
the Sardianians from Italy, and the Hunza tribe from the Himalayan mountains,
all of these groups eat the most beans and live well into their 90's and 100's.
And it's just not that live long, they live without cancer, heart disease,
depression and memory problems so prevalent in some other countries.
So, do you want to add a few more yrs. to your life?
Then make sure to do like the younger Sofia in Columbia,
and stay away from the new Sofia, (steak, pizza, cannolis and cupcakes)
A few more tips...
Plan on using beans from the bag? place them in a big bowl and cover
with cold water, let sit for a few hrs. or overnight. Helps reduce the gassiness.
Plan on using canned beans? Rinse with cold water to remove some of the salt.
And for the rice- make it brown and rinse it as well. Letting rice sit in cold water
for an hr. removing the water and then cooking it-makes it a lot healthier.
Good Luck!
