Boost your energy all day long
A 20 minute walk gives you a blast of pep that lasts all day, reveals new research from The University of Vermont. Though exercise provides an immediate lift, scientists were surprised at the long-lasting effect, because mood-boosting endorphins stay elevated for only a couple of hours. Researchers speculate that the jump-start helps buffer the effects of everyday hassles and stress on your outlook throughout the day.
Bonus: By simply walking 15% faster, you could loose some extra weight and increase your fitness levels. Just by increasing your walking speed from 3.5mph to 4.0 mph, the body burns an extra 80 calories an hour. It also increases lung capacity and improves blood pressure twice as much as strolling does.

I just had your frozen Chili with Cornbread meal for breakfast! Yes, breakfast. No time for the usual, I grabbed a couple of your frozen meals from the freezer (one for breakfast, one for lunch) and went out the door. WOW! Very tasty. Nice spice, lots of flavor and a bit of a kick without burning out tastebuds. It was filling, it was yummy and it really went well with the iced chai that I had in hand, too!
I'm a big fan of your Mac and Soy Cheeze, your Vegetable Pot Pies, and a few others but the Chili with Cornbread goes to the head of the list.
Thanks for the treat!
