Food Tips of the Week
Dieting made easy
One useful tip is to drink plenty of water. From time to time at some stage in a hectic morning, you guess that you want a snack but in fact you might just need a refreshing glass of water or orange squash. The feelings of needing food and needing a drink are quite similar, but one of the two can lead to a broken diet and the other is ok.
Some low carb diet tips:
* Use splenda as a substitute for sugar.
Many recipes that need sugar can be modified to make use of splenda. It is much lighter so you will need to do a bit of trial and error and it may not work for every dish, but it does bake up nice in most cases.
* Don't skip meals
Most low carbohydrate recipes are, well...., low in carbohydrates. Your body requires energy, and carbohydrates are a very efficient source of energy. A low carbohydrate diet needs more care in monitoring you energy levels, as any energy contributed by non-carbohydrate sources is far slower to act.
Superfoods containing carotenes
(includes parsley, mangos and tomato ketchup)
These fruits and vegetables are rich in alpha-carotene and beta-carotene believed by nutritionalists to play a major part in helping prevent cancer, spefically cancer of the stomach and lesophagus. A good number also help you lose weight, so are ideal for including in your weight loss program.
