Attract a Healthier Body - Top 10 Sweet and Sexy Foods

Good food, that"s good for you, is sexy. Some of the best foods are naked; free from over-processing and over-packaging. Keep it nutritious, simple, and versatile. Of all the things you would consider sexy, food should be on your short list. You don"t have to go 100% organic, or even vegetarian.  Instead, we"ll concentratie on foods that have nutrients related to your body"s need for cellular health without sacrificing taste.   The side effects can even include losing a pound or two.  That"s sexy. The Top 10 Sexiest Foods List: 10) Salomon: A cold-water fish high in omega-3 fatty acids, which play a crucial role in brain function.  Think: spicy tuna roll sushi. 9) Strawberries: High in vitamin C and antioxidants, this sinful fruit is oh, so good for you. 8) Ice Cream:  That"s right, a dessert!  It"s high in calcium and protein, and pleasing on so many levels. 7) Melon:  Rich in vitamin C, potassium, and beta-carotene. 6) Oysters:  Many men"s health studies suggest that a diet rich in zinc helps to promote prostate health.  These high-protein, low-cholesterol, mollusks are low in fat  and an excellent source of that zinc. 5) Bananas:  Some health benefits include stronger bones, urinary tract health, and good eyesight.  Bananas also contain tryptophan, which the body can convert to seratonin, and that can contribute to a calmer emotional state. 4) Tomatoes: Maybe this one isn"t a surprise, but it still makes the top 5.  Tomatoes contain beta-carotene and several other carotenoids, including lycopene, which, according to the USDA, are potential agents of prevention for some forms of cancer.  Tomatoes are also high in potassium which may be beneficial in stroke prevention. 3) Nuts: High in fiber, Vitamin E, selenium, and the omega-3 fats (the good fats), they contain many of the same benefits as fish (...but are a more portable snack at the movies.) 2) Potatoes: Higher in potassium than even bananas, potatoes also offer high amounts of vitamin C and B6, both of which are beneficial for your body"s ability to regenerate and heal.  Tied for second place is cheese, and for the same reason ice cream made the list, above.  It"s packed with calcium and protein, and a great snack! 1) Pasta: Contains thiamine, folic acid, iron, riboflavin, niacin, protein.  Also high in "slow-release" carbohydrates, you"ll often hear of endurance athletes eating pasta for longer-term energy.  Why number one?  Pasta is the second-most requested food item on every dinner table in the USA .  It can be combined with just about every other item on this list to make a great meal.  It can be a side dish, or a main course.  It can be simple, or complex.  Large, or small.  It is so versatile and healthy, it deserves to be the #1 sexiest food. As a bonus, you can even include red wine. Consumed in moderation, it is high in phenolic antioxidants, which help to keep that bad LDL cholesterol in check.  Just remember to be responsible. Go on, say it, "That"s Sexy!"  It"s true.  Eating well is sexy!
