                                           1. High in nutrients but low in calories Red leaf lettuce is nutrient-dense, meaning that it’s high in a variety of essential vitamins and minerals, yet very low in calories. Three cups (85 grams) of shredded leaves provide the following nutrients: Calories: 11 Protein: 1 gram Fat: 0.2 grams Fiber: 1 gram Vitamin K: 149% of the Daily Value (DV) Vitamin A: 127% of the DV Magnesium: 3% of the DV Manganese: 9% of the DV Folate: 8% of the DV Iron: 6% of the DV Vitamin C: 5% of the DV Potassium: 5% of the DV Vitamin B6: 4% of the DV Thiamine: 4% of the DV Riboflavin: 4% of the DV Its nutrition profile is similar to other popular leafy vegetables, such as green leaf, romaine, and iceberg lettuce, although there are a few notable differences.

Why Do Dress Shoes Matter In Men’s Style? | 5 Reasons Quality Shoes Are Important To A Man’s Wardrobe

                                            1. Shoes Indicate Your Status Shoes have always been a significant part of people's status throughout history. They have been known to indicate or represent wealth (or the lack of it) – especially in different forms of media and literature. For instance, we have Hannibal Lecter – who was able to tell that Clarice Starling had come from humble beginnings by just looking at her shoes. And shoes served as status symbols in many cultures – even the oldest ones like ancient Egypt. Slaves would go barefoot while common Egyptian citizens wore sandals made from woven papyrus. It wasn't even a question of how “nice” or comfortable they felt. The fact that someone owned sandals meant they were part of a more respectable social class. 2. Shoes Represent Attention To Detail Many people still agree that you can tell a lot about a guy by the shoes he wears. Which actually makes sense – as there still is an inherent bias that men are less detail-ori

What are the Health Benefits of Tomato Paste?

                                          Basics Tomato paste is produced by simmering fresh tomatoes until they begin to break apart. Then they’re strained to remove the skin and seeds, and cooked for at least several hours, until their moisture evaporates and they become a thick paste. Salt and olive oil are typically added, but some commercial products add other seasonings and sweeteners, such as high fructose corn syrup. One 6-ounce can of tomato paste is enough to make a pot of chili or stew that yields six servings, so that’s 1 ounce per serving. Nutritional values provided are for 1 tablespoon, which is about half that amount. Lycopene Tomatoes are the best natural source of lycopene, a powerful antioxidant that belongs to the vitamin A family. It’s often in the news for its potential to prevent prostate cancer, but research has produced mixed results, according to a review in November 2011 in the "Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews."

Heart Health : The National Centre for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) in its case study points out that nuts are likely to be beneficial for health, keeping a check on various ailments, such as heart disease. Studies consistently show that nut intake has a cholesterol-lowering effect, in the context of healthy diets, and there is emerging evidence of beneficial effects on oxidative stress, inflammation, and vascular reactivity. Cashews help lower LDL and increase the carrying capacity for HDL.
