Food Tips of the Week
Diet tips
At the start of a diet, people most certainly look at food store and big brand food items labelled 'low in fat'. To do this is far too often a miscalculation, in that an item could be significantly reduced in fats, but nevertheless elavated in calories and carbs.
Some low carbohydrate diet pointers:
* Dietary fiber is essential
Lowering the carbs in your meals usually leads to fiber reduction also. Look for low carb recipes that are high in fiber to redress this.
* Use soya flour or soya baking mix.
When you require flour for baked goods, substitute it with soya flour or a bake mix such as Atkins soy baking mix. In most cases, you can adapt your best loved recipes that use standard wheat flour to use these low carb alternatives.
Lycopene foods

The chemical lypcopene is a natural coloring compound and one of the phytochemical group known as 'carotenids'. It is the agent responsible for the vivid red hue of a good number of fruits and vegetables.
Intrestingly, unlike many nutrients, lycopene not only survives being cooked, but is essentially strengthened by cooking.
.
Its most important benefit is that it works as an antioxidant and is believed to be of use in the fight to lower the risks of cancer.
