General cooking tips

Most food, from fruit to fish, has a season -a time when it is abundant and at its best. Knowledge about food's seasons was once essential to survival and became culturally ingrained over the centuries. Today, we have all but lost this accumulated wisdom. Does this matter, in an age where technology can bring us anything we want to eat, whenever we want it?


Try Eating Raw Food : Raw food can help you detoxify, cleanse and revitalize your mind, body and spirit. Raw and Living Foods contain enzymes. In general, the act of heating food over 116 degrees F destroys enzymes in food. (Enzymes start to degrade in as little as 106 degrees F). All cooked food is devoid of enzymes, furthermore cooking food changes the molecular structure of the food and renders it toxic. Living and raw foods also have enormously higher nutrient values than the foods that have been cooked.


Dieting tips

The Glycaemic Index Diet
The glycaemic index diet is reliant on the gi (or glycaemic index), a list of types of food and a score representing the ease with which the carbohydrates in the food gets changed to sugar in your body. The theory is that slow release foods (ie those with a low Gi score), keep you feeling full longer and help you to injest less food without feeling you are missing out.
It's also extremely efficient for people with diabetes, as the low GI food types are helpful in preventing surges in glucose amount.
