Good news for starch-lovin' folks!

I was reading my March issue of Prevention magazine and came across an article about Resistant Starches. I'd never heard this term before, but I was thrilled to learn that some starchy foods can actually promote weight loss and have other health benefits as well. The trick is eating things like potatoes cold (not raw).

If you go to www.prevention.com and put "resistant starch" in the search box you can read more about this.

I hope this is good news for someone else today! (I also hope this doesn't turn out to be some kind of dieting myth...but for now this "Starch Girl" is happy to believe it!)

I just read this in Prevention today. I'm a starch lovin' gal too, and I guess you could call me cautiously optimistic. I'm choosing to believe for the moment simply because I want to. :D However, I'll practice quite a bit of moderation as well. There have been too many fallacies promoted as truth in the world of healthy eating, kwim? ;)
