Food Tips of the Week
Losing weightDrink more water. At times during a hectic day, you guess you are peckish but in truth you might only want a restorative glass of water or cranberry juice. The sensations of needing food and needing a drink are close, but one can result in a fat tummy and the alternative is ok.
The argument against low carb diets
Its extremely popular, but it is really safe for you?
Remember, one point that is often overlooked, it is very difficult (though not technically impossible) for vegetarians to adopt a low carbohydrate diet.
Even though there is anecdotal evidence that illustrates that reduced carb diets can help reduce weight, some of this anecdotal evidence has resulted in much debate between nutrition experts, and their relative safety has been brought into question
Flavonoid foods
(inlcudes citrus fruits, brussels sprouts, scarlet runner bean and cayenne)
The flavonoids found in these natural foods are thought by nutritionalists to have properties in fighting cancer.
Nutritionalists researching the medical effects of flavonoids think they also have many other benefits to our health, amongst them, antiviral and antioxidant powers.
Most also have a low calorie count, so should be a part of every weight loss program.
