Food Tips of the Week
Some reduced carbohydrate diet pointers:
* Use soy flour or soy baking mix.
When you need flour for baking, repalce it with soy flour or a baking mix like Atkins bake mix. In most situtations, you may adapt your best loved recipes that use normal wheat flour to use these low carb alternatives.
* Replace sugar with splenda.
Recipes that call for sugar can be adapted to make use of a sugar substitute like splenda. It is not exactly the same so you will need to experiment a little and it may not work for every dish, but it does bake up nice once you have it cracked.
Dieting tips
If you wish to become slim and boost your all round health, then, as any dietician will tell you, you really should eat a thoughtfully calculated sensible daily routine. At best, this should include five measures of grains and vegetables each day and also incorporate the right mix of important nutrients.
Foods containing allyl sulfides
( includes eschalot, leeks and spring onions)
The onion range of vegetables is high in allyl sulphides, a chemical which experts believe may be linked to a reduced risk of stomach and colon cancer.
Even though there is too little definitive proof obtainable, allyl sulphides are also thought by nutritionalists to help with blood circulation, arteriosclerosis and fatigue.
Foods containing allyl sulfides are low in calories, so make sure you add them to your weight loss program.
