Food Tips of the Week
Some lower carbohydrate diet guidlines:
* Use low carb chocolate bars for cookies and muffins.
If you have converted your best loved chocolate chip cookie or chocolate muffins recipe using soya flour, you really don't want to add in those high carbohydrate normal chocolate. Break up a low carb chocolate bar into small pieces and use that in its place.
* Don't skip meals
Most low carbohydrate recipes are, rather obviously, low in carbs. Our bodies need energy, and carbs are a highly efficient source of energy. A reduced carb diet requires care and attention in monitoring you intake of energy, as any energy contributed by protein and fat is less efficient.
* Don't forget the fiber
Lowering the carbohydrates in your meals often leads to fiber reduction also. Look at low carb recipes that are rich in fiber to restore the balance.
Frozen Fish Can Taste as Good as Fresh!
One of the problems with using frozen fish is that it often tastes bland and stale after it has been defrosted. This can be easily overcome by defrosting the fish in a bowl of milk, which brings back the 'nice' taste of fresh fish.
Flavonoid rich foods
(inlcudes olive oil, broccoli, kidney bean & tea)
The nutrients known as flavonoids which are present in these types of food show promise as anti-carcinogens.
Specialists looking into the medical effects of flavonoids suspect that they may also have many other benefits to our health, including, but not limited to, anti-allergic and antiplatelet powers.
Many are low in calories, so should be a part of every weight loss program.
