Food Tips of the Week
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.
The case against low carb diets
Its all the rage, but it is truly safe for you?
Remember, one fact that is usually overlooked, it is extremely hard (although certainly not impossible) for vegetarians to take up a reduced carbohydrate diet.
The majority of the unpleasant side-effects stated, such as general tiredness, stomach disorders, or bad headaches are only temporary, but critics contend that low carb diets are not without permanently harmful side effects.
Foods containing allyl sulfides
( includes garlic, leeks and welsh onion)
The onion and garlic family of foods is rich in allyl sulfides, a chemical which experts believe could be linked to a reduced risk of stomach and colon cancer.
Although there is precious little hard medical proof obtainable, allyl sulphides are also thought by nutritionalists to reduce the symptoms of colds, arteriosclerosis and fatigue.
Foods containing allyl sulfides are also low in calories, so should be included in your diet system.
