Food Tips of the Week
A few tips on healthy eating
In planning a diet, the important thing is to also endeavour to restrict your ingestion of refined carbohydrates, salt and fats.
The problems associated with reduced carb diets
Its all the rage, but it is truly safe and healthy for you?
Eliminating carbs might mean missing out on necessary nutrients from 'good' carbohydrate foods which should be part of any well-balanced diet, especially those that we get from grains, vegetables and fruits.
Higher consumption of animal-based products could lead into increased consumption of saturated fat and cholesterol, which a few authorities believe will increase the chance of coronary problems.
Foods containing allyl sulfides
( includes pickled shallots, leeks and spring onions)
The onion, leek and garlic family of foods is rich in allyl sulphides, a chemical which experts believe might be linked to a reduced risk of stomach and colon cancer.
Even though there is not much scientific proof at hand, allyl sulfides are also believed to aid in antiinflammatory effect, arteriosclerosis and physical exhaustion.
Foods containing allyl sulfides also have a low calorie count, so should be included in your weight loss program.
