I can't watch the video on this computer...... can someone give a synopsis?

Latreia

Wonderful quick link to one of those quickie, informative
little parts of a news channel interview. Lots of good
advice in a small amount of time; well worth watching
at home.

Debunking of: Blueberry muffins, pretzels, vitamin water, diet drinks. The diet colas seem to be the first choice of overweight people which seems to infer that
they contribute to obesity.

Diet drinks are not to be recommended, but I wonder
at the conclusions made by the food expert: that the
artificial sweetness of the drinks cause a craving for
real sweetness. Or that those who drink them assume
they can then have other foods with calories.

My experience is that after drinking diet drinks, all other sweetened drinks taste TOO sweet and I can't stand them. I now dislike cookies, cake, candy, etc.

But also, all foods just seem to taste better with Cokes, etc. (I like diet, caffeine-free Coke.) Drinking just water with meals just doesn't do it.

Back to the interview, the surprise foods that are good for you:

White potatoes: packed with vitamins and anti-oxidants, but ONLY unprocessed, that means baked, whole.
And only when not topped with butter or sour cream.
Food expert advised: olive oil, chopped garlic, and rosemary.

Bananas: So loaded with potassium, but one can avoid too many calories by buying the smaller ones, only 50 calories each, still enough potassium and easy to tote.

Frozen vegetables: Only those without any other ingredients, like salt, one can cook them and add
to flavor to suit one's own taste. The surprise is that
because of the quick freeze process, the veggies do retain all the vitamins, even more than fresh ones that are not immediately cooked.

So the real message there is to bring home your fresh vegetables and immediately cook and eat them.

My own personal note, not in video:

About chocolate that is good for you: ONLY dark, semi-sweet, NOT milk chocolate. Do not even touch a candy bar. You can buy the expensive, special dark chocolates, or on the cheap, limit yourself to a handful of semi-sweet dark chocolate morsels, like the ones you may use to bake with.

I adore chocolate and I find that my daily handful (ONE) seems to fully satisfy my "chocoholic tooth"!

I am like you are when it comes to chocolate. I buy a bag of the Dove dark chocolates, put it in the freezer, and have just one a day. (I can only eat certain brands of dark chocolates because I have a dairy allergy.)

Sadly eating healthy foods may not keep you as healthy as one would think. As early as the 1940's the FDA has realized that the top soil is depleated of minerals and the food grown on it is lacking.
Just from experience an occasional shot of liquid minerals will have you feeling like a Million Dollars before taxes!
And of course you need the vitamens i-c-e C-r-e-a-m
