Diet tips
In planning a meal plan, the important thing is to try to cut down your ingestion of fat, salt and refined carbohydrates.
Some lower carbohydrate diet pointers:
* Make reduced carbohydrate bread crumbs for breadcrumb coated foods.
Whilst you may be able to buy reduced carb breadcrumbs, you may make them at home by simply using reduced carb bread. All you have to do is simply toast the reduced carb bread in a pre-heated oven on a cookie sheet. When it is well toasted, process it in your food processor or blender. To store, keep in a tupperware jar or container.
* Fiber is essential
Cutting the carbs in your diet often results in reduction in fiber also. Look at low carbohydrate recipes that are rich in fiber to restore the balance.
Cruciferous vegetables, Super foods that also help your Dieting
(examples: Broccoli, Broccoli, Mizuna and Napa)
Altthough not always popular with children, these are rich in vitamins (folate and vitamin c), minerals (selenium and potassium, amongst others), fibre, chlorophyll and antioxidents.
