Your title heading is poor and can likely be misleadingly interpreted to connote that corn has negative effects on the body.
Some people summarize all they need about a topic from the heading.
I suggest you change it to:'The Amazing health benefits of roasted corn';or something like '7 amazing benefits of roasted corn'.

I so love roasted Corn, boiled corn is just there.
