Tips for Low Calorie Cocktails
|
| WebMD has great tips for low calorie cocktails:
In place of club soda (which contains sodium) or tonic water (which contains quinine, sugar or artificial sweeteners), mix your cocktail with sodium and sugar free Syfo Original Seltzer. Our Syfo Original and all our Naturally Flavored Sparkling Waters make terrific “mocktails” (non-alcoholic, zero-calorie beverages).
We’re betting our SyfoNatics will use their imagination and creativity to create the perfect, “pureiffic” drink. Whether it be a “shot of your favorite” with orange juice, cranberry juice, grapefruit juice, lemonade or limeade, we have you covered. Just add a combination of our Naturally Flavored Sparkling Waters and you have the most refreshing, delicious cocktail or mocktail.
Here’s what WebMD has to say about low-calorie cocktails.

Blueberries Lower Hypertension Risk
|
Eat Blueberries for Healthy Blood Pressure
According to a study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, people who eat blueberries at least once a week have a 10-percent lower risk of developing hypertension than people who don’t eat them.
The key ingredient to lowering high blood pressure is the flavonoid anthocyanin. Other dietary items that include flavonoids include tea, orange juice, apples, red wine and strawberries. In the study, blueberries were the richest contributor of anthocyanin.
So in addition to an apple a day, eating blueberries once a week can go a long way to maintaining good health. |
