Food Tips of the Week
Losing weightIn deciding on a meal plan, it is important to attempt to moderate your consumption of fats, refined carbohydrate and salt.
The case against reduced carbohydrate diets
Its all the rage, but it is truly safe and healthy for you?
Eliminating carbs may mean missing out on required nutrients from healthy carbohydrate foods which must be part of any well adjusted diet, particularly those provied by vegetables, fruits and grains.
Eating more animal-based products may lead into increased consumption of saturated fat and cholesterol, which many authorities believe will increase the risk of coronary problems.
Foods containing allyl sulfides
( includes garlic, onions and spring onions)
The alliaceae family of foods is rich in allyl sulfides, a chemical which experts believe could be linked to a reduced risk of stomach and colon cancer.
Although there is very little real proof published, allyl sulphides are also thought to aid in blood circulation, arteriosclerosis and fatigue.
Foods containing allyl sulfides are also good for weight loss, so should be included in your weight loss regime.
