Food Tips of the Week
Losing weightDrink 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.
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 pickled shallots, white onions and spring onions)
