From Edwards & Lee, Weekdays 3 PM – 7 PM



No more  complaining about having too big of a beer belly for me, I just read a study that beer is actually good for you.  Experts have been saying that wine is good for you, and now my dreams have come true!  While it might not be good for you in massive amounts, there is one recommended amount that could be healthy for you!  There are other foods that are considered heart healthy was well!

According to the studies done on beer with Yahoo, it is as healthy for you as wine is.  And experts say that there is a magic amount that can keep you in better shape than you would think.

Drinking a little more than a pint of beer a day could make you 30 percent less likely than non-drinkers to suffer from stroke, heart attacks, and heart disease, researchers found.

Something else that is heart healthy is spicy foods!  While I am not a HUGE fan of peppers, I might start eating a few spicy things a week to stay healthy!  Gotta watch the cholesterol!

Capsaicionoids appear to block the gene that causes your arteries to contract, leading to relaxed muscles and better blood flow to the heart, researchers believe. 

For other heart healthy foods, go to Yahoo.com!
