Food Tips of the Week
Losing weight
In deciding on a meal plan, it is important to attempt to moderate your consumption of fats, refined carbohydrate and salt.
The problems associated with reduced carbohydrate diets
Its all the rage, but it is truly safe and healthy for you?
Eliminating carbs could mean missing out on essential nutrients from 'good' carbohydrate foods which must be part of any well-balanced diet, in particular those that we get from vegetables, fruits and grains.
Increased consumption of animal-based products could lead into increased consumption of saturated fat and cholesterol, which most authorities believe will increase the risk of coronary problems.
Foods containing carotenes
(includes cilantro, kale and tomato puree)
These amazing healthy superfoods are rich in the carotenoids believed by nutritionalists play a key part in minimising the risk of cancer, specifically those cancers involving the lungs. Many also help you lose weight, so should be a part of every diet system.
