Food Tips of the Week
Advice on losing weight
Make 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 argument against low carb diets
Its extremely popular, but it is really safe for you?
Reducing carbs could mean missing out on essential nutrients from healthy carbohydrate foods which must be part of any well adjusted diet, in particular those provied by vegetables, grains and fruits.
Higher consumption of animal-based products might lead into elevated consumption of saturated fat and cholesterol, which many authorities believe will increase the probability of heart conditions.
Foods containing allyl sulfides
( includes garlic, onions and spring onions)
The alliaceae family of foods is rich in allyl sulfides, a chemical which experts believe could be linked to a reduced risk of stomach and colon cancer.
Although there is very little real proof published, allyl sulphides are also thought to aid in blood circulation, arteriosclerosis and fatigue.
Foods containing allyl sulfides are also good for weight loss, so should be included in your weight loss regime.
