NEWS AUGUST 1

Katherine Perry and Lindsay Roseman


Feel Good Fat
Hand over the pizza and ice cream! Research says that emotional muching isn?t just in your head after all; it?s biological. Eating a piece of chocolate (or ten) after a breakup or bad day at work actually nixes negative emotions. Dangerous news? Via CNN

Everything's Bigger in Texas
And better apparently! If you're looking for a refreshing drink, try this G-rated (it's sans the booze) Texas Tea recipe. Although we're pretty sure it'd be great as an adult beverage as well... Via The Meaning of Pie

Strength Training=Savior
We already knew that, but new research shows that the more muscle mass you have, the lower your risk for type 2 diabetes. Hello toned, sexy body, buh-bye diabetes. That?s prevention we can learn to love. Via WebMD

South of the Border Burgers
As temps continue to rise, we know one thing--summer BBQs won't be ending anytime soon. We suggest going meatless with this delicious bean burger, seasoned with your favorite Mexican flavors. Want to skip the bun? Try wrapping in a tortilla for a burger-burrito hybrid! Via Veggie Num Num

Big Fork, Small You
It seems obvious that using extra large utensils would cause diners to shovel down more chow than normal ? new research proves the opposite. When given a larger fork, restaurant-goers ate less and felt more full. Via CBS

Wholesome Treats
Can't get enough quinoa? We can't either! Switch it up, and throw this high-protein seed into your sweet treats. This blogger promises these cookies are sweet and crunchy, but wholesome and guilt-free. Via Scandi Foodie
