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 case against reduced carbohydrate diets
Its all the rage, but it is truly safe and healthy for you?
Eliminating carbs may mean missing out on required nutrients from healthy carbohydrate foods which must be part of any well adjusted diet, particularly those provied by vegetables, fruits and grains.
Eating more animal-based products may lead into increased consumption of saturated fat and cholesterol, which many authorities believe will increase the risk of coronary problems.
Foods containing carotenes
(includes cilantro, mangos and winter squash)
These foods contain alpha-carotene and beta-carotene believed to play a major part in preventing cancer, particularly those cancers involving the lungs. Most also have a low calorie count, so are ideal for including in your weight loss program.
