Cooking advice

Oven Tips : Fan-forced ovens cost 35% less to run than a conventional electric oven.


Buy Seasonal Food : If you're eating foods out of season, it's likely that they have come a long way - try to eat food that is both locally produced and can be found at that time of year, locally!


Diet types

The low calorie diet

In a nutshell, the low calorie diet states that if you plan to achieve weight loss, it is important to eat fewer calories than your body normally needs.

So what is a calorie?
A calorie is a measurement of the energy provided by food. The 'calorie' is the the energy required to increase the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree centigrade at normal atmospheric pressure. If something contains more calories, then it will turn into more energy when your body converts it.

Low calorie foods include boiled potatoes, capsicum pepper, apricots, steaks, burgers and chilis, and eggs.
