söndag 15 april 2012

 I had a nice dinner with my friends yesterday, I ate too much, at home I usually eat an apple or a slice of rye bread and when I came home I exersized for an hour. I think I deserve a day off from everything today. I have had a spill over in my bathroom, so I had to move the shower and I had to clean the plughole and when I moved the shower back into the corner the pipe passed the plughole, so I had still a spill over on the bathroom floor after a shower. I am not thrilled. Anyway I am going to prepare some food and then I have to repeat some italian and then I am going to ask for help with the shower by a neighbour, hopefulle he is able to help me todat. He is a plumber and he has helped me many times, last year he repaird the garage for me.

More about food

 I have enjoyed fried tofu with garlic and fried wok vegetables, this dish is vegan and very delicious.  The food was frozen and I use a very low temperature when I fry.During many years of my life i did not eat red meat, white meat or any kind of sea food, I was a lacto vegetarian for fifteen years.I enjoy eating good food and I am interested in nutrition, well I am not an expert, but I have studied nutrition for myself. There is biochemical research, which refers to importance of eating raw fruits and vegetables, so the digestionsystem receives enzymes so the food id better biodegredable. Food is a complete science.

 And I have read about these raw food enthuiasts. One of my favourite foods is ratatouille from the french kitchen and you have to cook ratatouille, (It is vegan, yammi, yammi.) Are raw vegetables always helthier? Well to comment this, I had to read a little science by food chemists.

People who have followed a strict raw food diet had normal levels of vitamin A and relatively levels of beta carotene, but low levels of the antioxident lycopene. Lycopene is a red pigment found in tomatoes, water melon, red bell pepper, pink guava and papaya. Several studies have linked a high intake of lycopene with a lower risk of cancer and heart attacks.

Cooked carrots, spinach, mushrooms, asparagus, cabbage, peppers and many other vegetables also supply more antioxidants, such as caretoinids and ferulic acid to the body than they do when raw Rui Hai Liu says.

 If you boil broccoli some enzymes will be destoyed such as myrosinase, but on the other hand indole, an organic compound is formed by cooking. According to research in "the journal of nutrition" in 2001, indole helps kill precancerous cells before they turn malignant.

Thanks for reading. I want to write more about classical music and logical subjects later, but i find food science interesting too, and now I am going to study italiano, ciao

Comments about diet and wellness

I have watched videos about the obesity epidemic. Well, you do not have to look like Hilary Swank, but the weight issue is more complex than your eating habits or your fitness habits.
I try to keep an alkalic diet as far as possible, I like to eat raw fruits and vegetables and i like to eat boiled beans, lenses,tofue and i like fish and i eat lactose products and eggs. I drink coffee too. Today I have eaten spinac pie. There are several benefits with an alkalic diet, my body receives a good biochemical balance and a good ph worth, a good digestion and an alkalic diet prevents cancer. Well I party sometimes too. I put on weight, cause i did not practice the alkalic diet for years, but now I have begun with the diet again, my bmi was 20,3 when i practiced that diet.

I think a high per cent of the population eat the low carb high fat diet. Carbs store water, so when you quit eating carbs your weight loss  is basically water. And I would not recommend that type of diet.

Scientists have also through several studies drawn the conclution that there is a cause related to lack of sleep and obesity, so turn off tv and the computer and sleep more.

Microbiologists have also found diffrences between microbes among obese vs slim people.

There are of course other reasons to weight gain like hormonal, medical, chemical and weight gain is also a natural part of the aging process, so do not get panic.

 I like to exersize and that is an important part of preventing the aging process.
