Food Tips of the Week
The argument against low carbohydrate diets
Its extremely popular, but it is really safe for you?
Cutting out carbohydrates might mean missing out on needed nutrients from healthy foods which should be part of any sensible diet, specifically those provied by vegetables, grains and fruits.
Moreover, it has been proposed that the kidneys can be given too much work to do and that the related change in blood acidity levels can cause bone loss, but some of the scientifc research trying to test the hypothesis have struggled to find significant evidence of kidney damage or loss of bone.
Losing weight
Recognise the difference between hunger and thirst. At times when going through a hectic day, you imagine you feel hunger but if truth be told you just need a restorative tumbler of water or cranberry juice. The feelings of hunger and thirst are quite alike, but one can result in weight gain and the alternative is fine.
Foods containing allyl sulfides
( includes pickled shallots, white onions and welsh onion)
The onion, leek and garlic family of foods is high in allyl sulphides, a chemical which experts believe could be linked to a reduced risk of stomach and colon cancer.
