General cooking tips

Buying an Oven : If you need to purchase a gas oven or range, look for one with an automatic, electric ignition system. An electric ignition saves gas-because a pilot light is not burning continuously.


Buy Organic Foods : Organic food helps protect the planet.
Organic farming ensures that bio-diversity remains available in the foods we eat and the wildlife that live on the farms.

Fruits and vegetables are naturally available in 100's of varieties. Commercial growing limits the variety of each food available by mass producing only a handful. Many species of birds, insects and other animals are affected by the chemicals and farming conditions used in growing commercial foods.

Organic farms grow a mix of crops and promote a balanced ecosystem including insects that protect crops from pests and worms and other micro-organisms which fertilize the soil.


Dieting 101

The Glycaemic Index Diet
The gi (or glycaemic index) diet system is linked to the gi (or glycaemic index), a list showing foods and a score illustrating the rapidity that the glucose and energy in the food gets changed to glucose in the dieters bloodstream. The theory is that slow release food types (ie with a low Gi score), keep you satiated for longer and mean that you can eat less food without craving snacks all the time.
It is also extremely effective for sufferers from diabetes, as the low GI types of food are beneficial in minimizing surges in blood sugar amount.
