Thoughtful Thursday GOKI Readers, so my question to you, did you watch tonight's American Idol results show? Were you at all surprised by the final two (Scotty and Lauren)?
Well now let me go on with the actual reason for today's post.
May 19, 2011 BrainBoost Tip Of The Day
EAT AN EGG
Once the victim of a bad rap, nutritional research has shown that an egg has protein (in the white part) and fat (in the yellow part), but no carbohydrates. The white has few other nutrients, while the yellow has a high amount of vitamin B12 and folate. Nutritionists used to think that eggs contained too much fat, but they now know that the fat in an egg is good for the brain, and doesn't contribute to higher levels of cholesterol in the blood. Bad news for chicken, good news for your brain.
As Always, To Your Health!
P.S. Here's a video about the benfits of eggs.
