Perfect Pasta!
Add salt, not oil, to your pasta cooking water. Salt adds flavor, but oil prevents sauce from adhering to pasta.

Iron Overload
Another reason to stop eating processed foods:Processed food products like cereals and white breads are "fortified'' with iron. The iron they use in these products is inorganic iron, not much different than rust and it is far more dangerous than the iron in meat.

Strain the Fat!
Red-skinned grapes and cranberry juice strain the fat out of your arteries. Instead of having fat build up in your blood vessels, these foods improve your cells'' abillity to absorb the fat and use it for energy production. Drink a glass of cranberry juice 3x a week or eat 1 cup of grapes per day to unclog your arteries. (Wonder if drinking wine would have same effect?!)

Do nitric oxide supplements really help pack on muscle?
According to Mike Roussell, Ph.D., nitric oxide supps main ingredient, arginine, can''t be absorbed efficiently in supplement form. Instead he recommends, citrulline, an amino acid that speeds into your system, after which is converted into arginine. As your arginine levels rise, your body produces more nitric oxide, which in turn dilates your blood vessels to help speed muscle growth and recorvery time.
