Food Tips of the Week
Losing weight
In deciding on a meal plan, it is important to attempt to moderate your consumption of fats, refined carbohydrate and salt.
Some reduced carbohydrate diet tips:
* Don't miss meals
Most low carbohydrate recipes are, not surprisingly, low in carbohydrates. Our bodies need energy, and carbohydrates are a quick acting source of energy. A lower carbohydrate diet requires care and attention in monitoring you energy intake, as any energy contributed by protein and fat is slower acting.
* Don't forget the fiber
Decreasing the carbs in your meals often results in fiber reduction as well. Check for reduced carbohydrate recipes that are rich in fiber to redress this.
Lycopene superfoods
(includes watermelon, red bell peppers and rosehip)
The chemical lypcopene is a non-synthetic coloring agent and part of the same family of phytochemicals as carotene. This chemical is the reason for the deep red color of many fruit, vegetables and pulses.
Intrestingly, unlike many other healthy agents, lycopene is not damaged during the cooking process, but is actually strengthened by going through the cooking process.
.
Lycoprene's key value is that it is an antioxidant and is believed to help to lower the probabilty of cancer.
This useful phytochemical is the most effective quencher of singlet oxygen, which is correlated with aging of the skin. It is also thought by nutritionalists to slow down the development of atherosclerosis.
