Doctors have known for decades that foods like white bread and corn flakes aren't good for cardiac health. In a landmark study, new research from Tel Aviv University now shows exactly how these high carb foods increase the risk for heart problems.
"Looking inside" the arteries of students eating a variety of foods, Dr. Michael Shechter of Tel Aviv University's Sackler School of Medicine and the Heart Institute of Sheba Medical Center ââ with collaboration of the Endocrinology Institute ââ visualized exactly what happens inside the body when the wrong foods for a healthy heart are eaten. He found that foods with a high glycemic index distended brachial arteries for several hours.
Elasticity of arteries anywhere in the body can be a measure of heart health. But when aggravated over time, a sudden expansion of the artery wall can cause a number of negative health effects, including reduced elasticity, which can cause heart disease or sudden death.
Using a clinical and research technique pioneered by his laboratory in Israel, Dr. Shechter was able to visualize what happens inside our arteries before, during and after eating high carb foods. It is a first in medical history. The results were published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology.

I don't know how to describe it either and you don't know if it will be tasty or not till you eat it.
I used to eat the kiwi with a little lime juice. It is ok but my favorite is nectarines and they are either to expensieve or dry with no juice this year so I haven't had any good ones this year.
No, sunny..I have never had guaqemolie and sour cream, but I have heard of it as a dip, especially at grey cup parties.
I love all fruit, kiwi, banana, berries, nectarines, mandarines, oranges, apples, cherries.. ooh.. I could live on fruit, so I have to be careful of the amount I have. I dont think Arline likes any vegetables, Sunny
Love vegetables but not fruit.
How come you dont eat portK
Speakinjg of cut veggies, I was in TJ Maxx today and they had the magic bullet chopper/blender. I'm sure I can find a small plane old chopper somewhere. This was big and was $80 - 1/2 the price it is elsewhere, They usually carry small choppers but definitely not when I'm looking for it.
I love vegies, except for okra and beets.
Didnt see the magic bullet - it was in the box but the box was the size of a medium-sized suitcase.
Sunn's right - I don't want a crock, certainly don't want a pressure cooker, but the jury's out on cable right now,
My bullit is the size of a large drinking glass. In fact, they come with three. It certainly isnt the size of a suitcase! It maybe ten inches high, if that. It is very small.. but effective and easy to clean, so you can make smoothies!
