Food Tips of the Week
Losing weight
Drink more water. At times during a hectic day, you guess you are peckish but in truth you might only want a restorative glass of water or cranberry juice. The sensations of needing food and needing a drink are close, but one can result in a fat tummy and the alternative is ok.

Moreover, it has been proposed that the kidneys may be given too much work to do and that the related change in acid levels in the blood causes bone damage, but some of the medical studies trying to test the hypothesis have struggled to find significant evidence of damage to the kidneys or bone damage.
Reducing carbs could mean missing out on required nutrients from healthy carbohydrate foods which must be part of any sensible diet, especially those provied by vegetables, grains and fruits.
