Energy/Protein Bars Might Be Junk Food In Reality. They are being sold everywhere... energy/protein bars claiming to be good for you and good for burning fat and adding muscle...

What Constitutes A Smoothie? According To Smoothie Drinkers

Smoothies are said to be around since the early sixties with the term being considerably used to refer to the fruit and fruit juice based drinks consumed by the hippies. But officially, the smoothie was first launched by Stephen Kuhnau under the brand name of Smoothie King. The smoothie is usually made with fresh fruit or vegetables, mixed in a blender to which crushed ice, yoghurt or honey is added. They have a thicker consistency than juices and slush. The main difference between smoothies and milkshakes are that the latter contains ice creams. The drink became popular when they became available at cafe's, coffee shops and even at the local ice cream vendor's. Smoothie makers are also available to simplify the task.

Pumpkin Seeds And Their Health Benefits

Pumpkins were one of the foods the Spanish and Portuguese explorers of the 15th century discovered in the Americas, which they transported back to Europe. The pumpkin fared better than the tomato and potato as regards the suspicions of the Europeans and it was widely cultivated. Most people are unaware of the health benefits of pumpkin seeds and generally remove them and throw them away. However they can be used in soups and sauces as well as a healthy snack. You can roast them yourself after drying them with or without salt and in their shells. Some pumpkin seeds are not surrounded by a husk but mostly you have to take off the ivory-coloured outer husk to get at the dark-green seed inside. In Greece people eat these as snacks and they are called passé tempo. They contain monounsaturat...

A Food Safety Researcher Explains Food Expiration Dates Don’t Have Much Science Behind Them – Here’s Another Way To Know What’s Too Old To Eat

Florida’s outbreak of listeria has so far led to at least one death, 22 hospitalizations and an ice cream recall since January. Humans get sick with listeria infections, or listeriosis, from eating soil-contaminated food, undercooked meat or dairy products that are raw, or unpasteurized. Listeria can cause convulsions, coma, miscarriage and birth defects. And it’s the third leading cause of food poisoning deaths in the U.S. Avoiding unseen food hazards is the reason people often check the dates on food packaging. And printed with the month and year is often one of a dizzying array of phrases: “best by,” “use by,” “best if used before,” “best if used by,” “guaranteed fresh until,” “freeze by” and even a “born on” label applied to some beer. People think of them as expiration dates, or the...
