Reasons why you should be eating more popcorn

Weight-loss snack

Popcorn is sugar-free, fat-free and also low in calories. A small cup of popcorn is said to contain only 30 calories. Furthermore, the fibre content in popcorn makes you feel full and thus helps keep hunger pangs at bay. 

Rich in anti-oxidants

Free radicals do a lot more damage than cancer; they have been closely linked to a number of heart diseases, and other age-related problems such as blindness, muscle weakness, Alzheimer’s disease, hair loss, etc. Popcorn, on the other hand, is loaded with anti-oxidants called polyphenols, and like all other anti-oxidants, this too helps combat the effects of free radicals.

Ensures a healthy gut

As popcorn is a whole grain, it is a good source of fibre, minerals, complex carbohydrates, B complex vitamins, and also vitamin E. The high fiber content helps in the proper secretion of digestive juices, which in turn helps in the proper functioning of the digestive tract.

Cuts down cholesterol

Popcorn is rich in fibre which can help get rid of excess cholesterol from the walls of blood vessels and arteries, thereby lowering your overall cholesterol levels. This in turn helps lower your chances of cardiovascular conditions such as atherosclerosis, heart attacks and strokes. 

Controls blood sugar

The fibre-content in popcorn helps your body regulate blood sugar and insulin levels better than people with low levels of fibre. In case you are diabetic, it’s best to introduce one small cup of homemade popcorn into your daily diet to help reduce any fluctuations in your blood sugar levels.
