El taco en México es uno de los platillos emblema a nivel internacional, por la gran variedad que tienen; desde tamaño, si son suaves o duros, hasta el contenido que lleva el taco. Desde un ingrediente hasta todo un platillo completo en un solo taco, los puedes encontrar desde un puesto en la calle hasta restaurantes gourmet.

Es considerado la comida rápida en México, pero con un excelente valor nutritivo. Puede ser un taco que tiene carne, verduras o frutas; o solo vegetales, puede ir desde carne al vapor o bien algún producto frito.

Usualmente la tortilla puede ser de varios ingredientes desde harina de trigo o nopal, o la tradicional harina de maíz.

La tortilla es consumida desde la época Precolombina y se prepara con un proceso de nixtamalización (maíz, agua y cal); después pasa por el metate para hacer la masa, y de ahí toma la forma de la tortilla.

Sin embargo, el taco hizo que, durante la época de la conquista, existiera la primera taquiza o el acto de comer en un colectivo tacos; iniciado por Hernán Cortes en Coyoacán.

Los primeros tacos eran de mole, guajolote y hasta de xoloitzcuintle (raza de perro). Antes de llegar a un estatus de comida gourmet, gracias a la nueva cocina mexicana, era considerada comida para la clase trabajadora.

El taco se puede dividir en 2 categorías, por tipo de carne o relleno y el otro por tipo de preparación.

Un mexicano te dirá que el éxito de un taco, más allá de la tortilla o el relleno, será la salsa. Este es uno de los ingredientes indispensables: desde una salsa roja (jitomate), salsa verde (tomate), guacamole (aguacate y chile serrano), pico de gallo (jitomate, cebolla y chile verde).

Morning Exercise Best for Women's Heart Health
A new study has found that exercising in the late morning is better for women's heart health than exercising at other times of the day.

Researchers from Leiden University looked at data from the UK Biobank to find out whether the time at which people exercise has an effect on heart health. The data was collected from more than 86,000 women and men with an average age of 62.

Participants' exercise times were recorded over seven days, and heart health was observed for six years. The participants were grouped based on the time of day they exercised, including early morning, late morning, midday and evening.

It was found that women who exercised in the early morning — between around 8 a.m. and 9 a.m. — had a 22% lower risk of developing heart disease compared to those who exercised at midday. Women who exercised in the late morning — between around 10 a.m. and 11 a.m. — had a 24% lower risk.

No significant difference was found for men, or for anyone who exercised in the evening.

The data also showed that women who exercised in the late morning had a 35% lower risk of stroke compared to those who exercised at midday.

The benefits of morning exercise were true both for women who prefer waking up early and those who prefer sleeping late.

Study author Gali Albalak said that although she's not sure why exercising in the morning was found to be better for women than men, the results add to the evidence that morning exercise — and especially late morning exercise — may be best for our health.
