Food Tips of the Week
Advice on losing weightIf you enjoy your food, but want to become thin and also improve your overall physical condition, then, as most people know, you should follow a meticulously prepared wholesome dietary regime. Theoretically, this needs to involve 5 standard portions of grains, cereals and vegetables every day and also contain the optimum fusion of important nutrients.
Some low carb diet guidlines:
* Food labels can be misleading Be sceptical of food labeling that boasts 'low carb' - check the nutritional information figures on the reverse of the tin or package. Many are only slightly less and in some cases still more than a competitors usual brand. Also, beware of 'low sugar' and 'low fat' labels - 'low sugar' doesn't always mean 'low carb' - usually the carbs are exactly the same.
Foods containing carotenes
(includes cilantro, kale and tomato puree)
These amazing healthy superfoods are rich in the carotenoids believed by nutritionalists play a key part in minimising the risk of cancer, specifically those cancers involving the lungs. Many also help you lose weight, so should be a part of every diet system.
