Well, to help speed up your metabolism Japanese researchers have discovered that by chewing each bite of food 40 times will do the trick!.

It seems that people who increased  the number of times they chew their food they burned more calories after every meal.  The extra chewing causes more blood to flow to the stomach which helps to speed up your metabolism.

Slow Aging By Eating Peanuts!

Yes, that's right, you can slow aging by eating peanuts.

You all have probably heard of “Resveratrol”, it's a flavonoid that is found in foods like- red wine, grape juice, and red skinned peanuts!

It helps protect the cells against age damage and also helps boost the flow of blood to the brain. Interestingly enough by just eating a quarter cup of peanuts will provide 100% of your niacin needs, which is a nutrient that has been proven to reduce Alzheimer's risk as much as 70%.

Snacking on peanuts also helps curb the appetite and aids in shedding pounds. Now don’t overdo it because of the calorie content in peanuts, but just eating 40 peanuts as a snack is equivalent to an ounce which is acceptable to just about any diet.

Peanuts are also a good source of protein and there is a variety to choose from.
