Oscar Night Snack Rx For Better Health!

                                Snack On This! 

The Oscars are a few weeks away and for a lot of us that means
a big bowl of popcorn and waiting 3 or more hours until the good
(or significant) categories are called. You know, best actor, best picture
and best director.

And if you're not a fan of popcorn perhaps this news may change your mind.
What news is that?
It (popcorn) can actually lower your odds of getting certain cancers and
trim down your belly.
If you're a regular here, then you may remember the post we did on
Cameron Diaz. You know, her favorite breakfast food and her desire
to live till 100.
Well today, we're back with another whole grain that's as popular as
hot dogs or pizza or candy and something even better: It's gluten-free. 
That's right, corn is gluten-free and if you air pop it and then sprinkle 
on a few spices and herbs, it can actually help you lower your odds of
ever getting certain cancers.

The spices and herbs you should use...
Curry powder
black pepper
garlic powder
oregano
and after it's finished air-popping, sprinkle on some olive oil.
Olive oil is rich in oleic acid, a fatty acid that helps suppress the gene responsible
for breast cancer.

And for a trimmer midsection, sprinkle on safflower oil after
you finish air-popping it. Safflower )a favorite of talk show host Montel Williams)
has special compounds in it that specifically target belly fat.
Plus, the fiber in popcorn and oatmeal help fill you up so quickly, you're not
tempted to overindulge.

That's it- 2 great reasons to eat more popcorn.
And please, look for our next post where we tell you the favorite food 
of a nighttime host and how this food can really improve your health. 
Gotta run, all of this talk of popcorn is making me hungry.

Good Luck!

Movie Snack Favorite For More Energy!

                                                   Popcorn For More Energy!
Are you one of those people who seems to lack the energy of your
co-workers or schoolmates? Are you a coffee drinker?
Well, according to new research- If you drink in the hopes that it'll give more
energy, you're sadly mistaken. The coffee will give you a boost  for awhile,
but that's wears off in about 30 to 40 mins.
Another way to gain energy and continue drinking coffee is to pair it
with a movie snack.
The movie snack: Popcorn!
That's right- Popcorn is a healthy, low-cal, good for you carb and when you
pair a good carb like popcorn with caffeine, you get a boost in energy.
How does the duo work? Pairing popcorn with coffee boost your energy levels
in two ways.
1) Caffeine blocks the buildup of adenosine-a chemical that causes muscle
to tire out as you use them.
2) Carbs supply your muscle cells with glucose-the primary source of fuel.
So, if lack of energy is something you're suffering with, and you've been
trying to fix it with coffee and a candy bar or coffee and a danish,
then you need to add some popcorn (air-popped) to the equation.

That's It- Popcorn and Coffee- what a funky combination.

Good Luck!
