Popcorn For Health! Did You Know?

Did you know popcorn is a healthy whole grain, the kind linked to lower rates of diabetes and heart disease? It’s true.

And popcorn fans will love this news, too: People who eat it every day consume 250% more whole grains and 22% more fiber than those who don’t, according to a study from the Center for Human Nutrition in Omaha, Neb.



But don’t view this as a license to pig out on “loaded” popcorn at the movies or on the couch: One tablespoon of butter adds 8 grams of artery-clogging fat and 100 calories. A little oil is better—but plain is best.
God Bless!
