Because the Moors of North Arica brought meatballs to Spain In turn, the Spaniards introduced meat- bulls to North America when they arrived in Mexico, Fastforward to today, and there ate differences: Spanish albondigas are typically served alone or witha tomato sauce asthe main course ‘as tapas, while Mexiean albndigas 92 ceantaing varci.00 aso a hearty and refreshing bowl of igas — a Mexican meatball soup.

As with any traditional recipe, there are many supposedly authentic ways t0 prepare the soups the cooking methods differ rom one region in Mexico to another.

Jonny Bowden weighs in. e I've heard several new alarming reports about arsenic in foods. Should Ibe worried? found thar nine out of 88 samples of apple and grape juices contained more arsenic than the government permits in drinking water. And research from the Dartmouth Childrea’s Cencee found higher levels of arsenic in the urine of pregnant women who ate rice than in the urine of women who didn’t. The Dartmouth researchers also found thar children who consumed rice during the ages of six to 17 had 14% more arsenic in their urine chan non-rice eaters. But should you be worried? That depends who you ask. ‘The US Food and Drug Adminis- tration (FDA) eurrently sets no limit ‘on the amount of arsenic allowed in foods, but consumer groups are urging the FDA to set standards for arsenic in rice, which absorbs more arsenic than, lother grains. For now, the FDA is being cautious, and doesn’t currently recon ‘mend consumers change theit rice-cat ing habits. So far, they have found no evidence suggest QA creaneaing sans it’s unsafe to eat. BY JONNY BOWDEN, PhD, CNS, Bur the United States Environmen- tal Protection Agency (EPA) assumes there is no “safe” level of exposure to the kind of arsenic found in food, so in my view, the less the better. Pd certainly avoid the nine juices found to be high in the Consumer Reports study, and I'd probably cut down on rice just to be safe, Bur don't worry, there's a world ‘of whole grains heyond rice!

Ever since raspberry ketones were discussed on a daytime medical showe, stores haven't been able to keep che supplement instock, claiming i's “the number one miracle ina bottle to burn your fat.” Actually, it's nothing of the sot. Tn reality, isa whole lot of hype with very litle substance Raspberry ketones are the natural compounds found in taspherties thar give chem their pleasant smell. They're chemically similar to capsaicin, che mouth-burning ‘compound in hor peppers that is thought to have certain pain-relieving, properties. And sure, it may well turn tout thae raspberry ketones, like so many other compounds isolated from planes, actually have some benefit. In fact, one rat study showed that supple: mental ketones protected rats against nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), or fatty liver disease ‘There have only been a handful of small Asian studies on raspberry ketones, which were all done on rats 1 on cells in test cubes. One of the studies showed that the ketones in- creased secretion of a hormone called. adiponectin, which helps break down, fat, while the other studies showed that high amounts of ketones protected the rats from fat gain while slightly ing theie fat burning. But that tiny bit of preliminary research ~ promising as ic may be ~ hardly justifies the market- ing of raspberry ketones as a “miracle” weight-loss product for humans. © ee ua Gs Recipe Guide Creer ties secu cr with our selection of healthy, energizing recipes for every meal of the day!
