Popcorn is not only good for dieting but also contains a high concentration of antioxidants.

In the past, popcorn has been included in diet menus by many nutritionists due to its low calorie content. But now, a new study also shows that the antioxidant content of popcorn is extremely high. The reason is that only 4% of popcorn is water, while water makes up more than 90% of vegetables, making antioxidants more diluted.

Antioxidants (also known as polyphenols ) are especially beneficial for health because they help fight harmful molecules, specializing in cell destruction.

According to DailyMail, each serving of popcorn can provide up to 300mg of polyphenols, nearly twice the amount of 160mg found in every fruit serving (all types). This discovery has just been published by scientists from the University of Scranton, Pennsylvania (USA) at the recent American Chemical Society conference.'Popcorn needs more respect. They are the source of gold nutrition, ' said expert Joe Vinson.

But of course, we can't eat popcorn constantly, because it doesn't contain the essential vitamins that are inside the fruits and vegetables, Vinson recommends.
