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 case against low carbohydrate diets
Its popular as hell, but it is truly safe for you?
Remember, one point that is usually overlooked, it is very difficult (though certainly not impossible) for vegetarians to take up a low carb diet.
Moreover, it has been hypothesised that the kidneys may be given too much work to do and that the resulting change in blood acidity levels can cause bone damage, but some of the studies trying to test the theory have struggled to find real evidence of damaged kidneys or bone damage.
Superfoods rich in flavonoids
(inlcudes lettuce, broccoli, yams & basil)
The compounds known as flavonoids discovered in these natural foods are thought by nutritionalists to have properties as cancer fighters.
Specialists looking into the nutritional effects of flavonoids believe that they might also have many other health giving properties, amongst them, anti-viral and anti-inflammatory activities..
The majority of these are also good for weight loss, so should be a part of every diet.
