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 reduced carb diet guidlines:
* Use soy flour or baking mix.
When you need to use flour for baked goods, substitute soy flour or a baking mix such as Atkins bake mix. In most cases, you may convert your most popular recipes that use conventional wheat flour to use these lowcarb alternatives.
* Eat regular meals
Most reduced carb recipes are, errmm.., low in carbs. Your body must have energy, and carbohydrates are a fast acting energy source. A reduced carbohydrate diet needs great care in monitoring you energy levels, as the energy provided by non-carbohydrate sources is far slower to act.
Brassicas, Super foods that aid Dieting
(includes Arugula, Celery, Mustard greens and Chinese cabbage)
Known as cruciferous vegetables, these are jam-packed with vitamins (including vitamin c and folate), minerals (including potassium and selenium), fibre, chlorophyll and antioxidents.
