Good for you snacks - Popcorn
Craving for a healthy snack on a night in? How about popcorn? A standard three-cup serving of air-popped popcorn contains just 93 calories and less than 1.5 grams of fat. These low-calories snacks are considered whole grains, which have some valuable antioxidants not found in fruits and vegetables. They also contain B vitamins, vitamin E, magnesium and fibre. Try to choose the plain version if possible and avoid the "buttery" or "caramel" microwave popcorn that may be loaded with calories, sugar and fats. |

Move More!
Make it a daily challenge to find ways to move your body. Climb stairs if given a choice between that and escalators or lifts. Walk your dog; chase your kids, mow the lawn. Anything that moves your limbs is not only a fitness tool, it's a stress buster. Think 'move' in small increments of time. It doesn't have to be an hour in the gym or a 45-minute aerobic dance class or kung fu. But that's great when you're up to it. Meanwhile, move more. Thought for the day: Cha, Cha, Cha?. Then do it! |
