Horror Movie Rx To Lose Weight!

             Lose Weight With A Horror Movie! 

Today's Halloween, any horror movie fans out there?
Well, if you prefer the new school horror movie like "Paranormal
Activity" or if you're really old school and prefer "Night of
The Living Dead" or "The Exorcist" give yourself a hand.

Why? Watching horror movies can do more than keep you up at night,
they can also help boost your metabolism.
That's right- Most people fidget while watching a horror movie and
fidgeting can increase metabolism by a whopping 40%. Translate that
to a 2 hr. movie and you can burn about 180 calories, watch 3 movies
and you can burn about 540 calories.

Scientists say frequent body movements, (fidgeting) prods your brain to
release a hormone (orexin-A). A hormone that boosts your ability to burn fat
for energy.

So, next time you want to watch some mindless horror movie, don't feel 

bad about it, just remember- you're doing your body some good.

Good Luck!
