The truth about Chicken Skin.
YUM!! The aroma and flavour of chicken, roasted to crisp perfection in its own skin and fat. Most people ditch that wonderfully delicious skin, but do you really need to? Three ounces of boneless chicken WITH the skin contains about 170 calories and seven grams of fat, only two of which are saturated, and the skin actually contains protein, phosphorus, iron, calcium and even Vitamin A. Chicken skin does, however, contain fat, so skipping the margarine and using a fat free salad dressing instead will help balance this out.

Did you know scientists have found that 40-year old women who start walking briskly for half an hour a day, four days a week, enjoy almost the same low risk of heart attack as women who have exercised their entire lives? Did you know the day you quit smoking, your body’s carbon-monoxide levels drop dramatically? Within a week your blood becomes less sticky and your risk of dying from a heart attack starts to decline! Did you know being 30 pounds or more overweight dramatically increases your risk of heart disease, diabetes, gallbladder disorders and arthritis? Did you know 18 to 24 hours after you exercise, your body becomes more sensitive to the insulin it produces, reducing your risk of diabetes? Did you know that when you exercise, the moment your heart starts pounding harder, blood vessels become more flexible, lowering blood pressure? Did you know that findings of the past decade have shown that weight training can reverse some effects of aging? It increases strength, helps restore bone density and diminishes knee pain from arthritis. Experts say that everyone can benefit from weight training. Did you know that eating more fruits, vegetables and fibre could lower blood pressure, and so reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke? We all know that fresh fruits and vegetables are really good for you – raw foods retain their naturally occurring enzymes, which make them easier on the digestive system than cooked foods. Raw foods are free from chemical preservatives and processing additives. They comprise of fresh fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, grains and beans. They can be prepared by chopping, blending, pureeing, liquefying, slicing, shredding, freezing, dehydrating and juicing. Raw food ingredient combinations are only limited by your imagination. Not sure where to start? Surprisingly, it doesn’t matter. One positive change usually leads to another. Becoming more physically active, for example, inspires many people to eat a healthier diet. Make enough changes, and you’ll discover you’ve adopted a new way of life. So next time you are sitting around and don’t know what to do with yourself, go for a brisk walk and start a new healthier way of life! By: Kathryn Hartwell
