Food Tips of the Week
Diet hints and tips
In deciding on a diet, it is essential to attempt to lower your consumption of fat, salt and refined carbohydrates.
Some low carbohydrate diet guidlines:
* Don't miss meals
Most low carb recipes are, errmm.., low in carbohydrates. Your body must have energy, and carbohydrates are a fast acting source of energy. A low carb diet needs great care in managing your intake of energy, as any energy given by fat or protein is much slower acting.
* Fiber is essential
Cutting the carbohydrates in your meals usually results in fiber reduction as well. Look for reduced carbohydrate recipes that are rich in fiber to restore the balance.
Flavonoid foods
(inlcudes garlic, spinach, adzuki bean & tea)
The nutrients called 'flavonoids' present in these food types are thought by nutritionalists to have properties as anti-carcinogens.
Researchers researching the effects of flavonoids think they might also have numerous other healthy properties, amongst them, anti-dermatitis and antiplatelet capabilities.
The majority of these also have a low calorie count, so should be included in every diet system.
