There is an ingredient in red wine that apparently really does prolong life, at least, the life of mice. How do we know? In a recent study, mice that were fed all kinds of artery-clogging foods and fattened up were given huge doses of the elixir, while other mice were just fattened up. Despite being obese, the cardiovascular systems of the lucky mice on the regimen remained healthy - so healthy the researchers, at no less than the Harvard Medical School, rushed to publish their findings even before the study was complete. tom@newslaugh.com (Tom Attea) Sat, 26 May 2007 00:00:00 +0100 http://www.marketinfo.info/articlelive/articles/81/1/Healthy-Cooking Healthy cooking or healthy eating doesn't mean denial. Changes that we implement towards a healthier lifestyle will impact our health, the way we feel and perhaps extend our life. Cooking is a personal experience and we can implement different methods for the same meal. For example, if we want to make mashed potatoes, we could boil the potatoes, or we could steam them, we could peel the skin, buy instant mixes, etc. The choices we make will modify and transform the quality and the nutritional value of the food you put on your table. So here are a few tips that you can easily implement in your kitchen.
