The argument against reduced carbohydrate diets
Its popular as hell, but it is truly safe and healthy for you?
Although there is some evidence that indicates that low carbohydrate diets can help elimate surplus fat, some of this evidence has resulted in many arguments between nutrition experts, and their safety has been the cause of great debate
Eliminating carbs may mean missing out on required nutrients from healthy foods which must be part of any sensible diet, particularly those obtained from vegetables, fruits and whole grains.
Lycopene super foods
(includes apricot, papaya & baby jackfruit)
The phytochemical lycopene is a non-synthetic compound used to color foods and member of the same group of phytochemicals as carotene. This chemical is accountable for the deep red colour of quite a few natural foods.
Fortunately, unlike numerous nutrients, it does not become less effective if cooked but is genuinely improved by the cooking process.
. Its most valuable health contribution is that it works as an antioxidant and appears to help lower the risks of cancer.
