Food Tips of the Week
Advice on losing weight
Make sure that you drink enough fluids. Sometimes at some stage in a hectic work day, you feel you need food when in truth you may need a refreshing glass of water or cranberry juice. The feelings of hunger and thirst are somewhat similar, but one of them ends in weight increase and the other one leads to no damage.
The argument against low carb diets
Its popular as hell, but it is truly safe for you?
Moreover, it has been hypothesised that the kidneys may be given too much work to do and that a related change in blood acidity causes bone loss, but some of the studies testing the theory have struggled to find significant evidence of deterioration of the kidneys or bone damage.
Although there is some evidence that suggests that low carb diets can help eliminate fat, some of this considerable evidence has caused controversy between nutritionalists, and their safety has been brought into question
Superfoods containing carotenes
(includes cilantro, mangos and tomato ketchup)
These plants contain alpha and beta carotenes thought by experts to help in helping prevent cancer, particularly of the lung, esophagus and stomach. The majority of these are also good for weight loss, so should be included in every weight loss regime.
