Food Tips of the Week
Losing weightIn deciding on a meal plan, it is important to attempt to moderate your consumption of fats, refined carbohydrate and salt.
The case against reduced carb diets
Its all the rage, but it is truly safe and healthy for you?
The majority of the negative side effects claimed, like general tiredness, stomach disorders, or bad headaches are only temporary, but critics contend that low carbohydrate diets are not without permanently harmful side effects.
Whilst there is evidence that indicates that low carb diets can help achieve weight loss, some of this evidence has proved to be controversial among nutritionists, and their relative safety has been the cause of great debate
Foods containing allyl sulfides
( includes pickled shallots, white onions and green onion)
The alliaceae range of vegetables is rich in allyl sulphides, a chemical which experts believe may be linked to a reduced risk of stomach and colon cancer.
Even though there is very little scientific proof at hand, allyl sulphides are also thought by nutritionalists to reduce symptoms with colds, arteriosclerosis and diabetes.
Foods containing allyl sulfides also help you lose weight, so you should add them to your weight loss program.
