Food Tips of the Week
Advice on losing weightMake sure that you drink enough fluids. Sometimes at some stage in a hectic work day, you feel you need food when in truth you may need a refreshing glass of water or cranberry juice. The feelings of hunger and thirst are somewhat similar, but one of them ends in weight increase and the other one leads to no damage.
The case against low carb diets
Its all the rage, but it is truly safe and healthy for you?
Remember, one fact that is usually overlooked, it is very difficult (although by no means impossible) for vegetarians to adopt a reduced carb diet.
Cutting out carbs could mean missing out on needed nutrients from healthy foods which should be part of any sensible diet, specifically those obtained from vegetables, fruits and whole grains.
Foods containing allyl sulfides
( includes pickled shallots, chives and spring onions)
