How Healthy is it to Eat Lobster ? Nutrition studies show that 3 1/2 ounces of lobster meat (without the butter) contains only 90 calories, compared to 163 calories for the same amount of chicken and 280 calories for sirloin steak. Lobster also contains omega-3 fatty acids, the "good " cholesterol that seems to reduce hardening of the arteries and decrease the risk of heart attacks. It's the butter, Mayonnaise and Stuffing that make it less healthy! Need some ways to get milk into your daily nutrition plan?

crime? HOW? Children must be
fed, clothed, and housed right, if society would avoid building
crime. Nervous irritations and mental perversions originate

BY DR. JH TILDEN about 100 years ago.Coca Cola and other Soft Drinks Did you know that a 12 ounce can of Coca Cola (and other non-diet softdrinks) contains the equivalent of 10 teaspoons of sugar and has around 150 calories per can? It is very easy to get hooked on soft drinks, especially Coca Cola and Pepsi. If you drink 3 cans a day, you are ingesting about 30 teapoons of sugar and getting an addition 450 calories a day! Now,try to fit this in with the rest of your daily diet! If you have been gaining weight, and not overeating, add up the amount of soft drinks you drink daily. You may be surprised to learn that by just cutting down to one soft drink a day, you will find you will lose weight in no time! Within two weeks, you should lose about 1 pound. And, all you are giving up are 2 cans soda a day! Drink ice water with a few squirts of lemon or lime in it...This helps the transition from soda to water. For the heavier soda drinkers out there....Do not go cold turkey, or you will end up with caffeine withdrawal. If you currently drink 4 or more cans a day, cut down to 2 sodas a day for about 1 week. After that week, you can cut down to one a day for a week. You may thencut out these beverages completely and safely. However, my recommendation to you is not to substitute the diet colas...They are just as addicting (if not more so) than cola with sugar. They also tend to make you want to eat more. Trust me...I went through it all! |
