Food and cooking tips

Buy Local Food : See if you can find out where your food has gone before it gets to your plate. You may be suprised by the results. Often it will make financial sense for companies to transport food enourmous distances by planes, boats and lorries. This dosn't take the environmental cost into account (which of course is likely to lead to greatly increased economic costs in the long term).

Try Eating Raw Food : Your body needs time to adjust and clean itself. Start including more fresh fruit, green salad, and green juice in your meals. Cut back on meat, dairy products, and cooked starchy foods. Try eating all raw one day per week, then two days. Or eat only two cooked foods per meal, then only one. You'll feel the difference.

Dieting tips

The Glycaemic Index Diet
The gi index weight loss program is based around the gi index, a chart showing types of food and an indicator of the ease with which the energy in the food gets transformed to sugar in the dieters system. The believe is that long-acting food types (ie those with a low Gi score), suppress your appetite and help you to eat less food without being miserabl;e.
It's also extremely efficient for people with diabetes, as the low GI types of food are beneficial in reducing surges in glucose amount.
