FOOD SCIENCE A GUIDE

[MrRigatoni]

Hello every one this is something useful to know.

Always a theme topic to discuss.

Food Science the way we are identifying food as nutritional and how this effects us whether in a number of ways.

Marketing sources pressures, physical and mental .

All of us justly deserve an answer if the are decided to look at nutrition in their food is to worth consuming.

Is it worth purchasing including in my routine the daily amount I eat. Should I be eating this so many mixed messages.

Media hype and marketing plus confusion all the time what to eat .

If I eat this will this make me fat if I eat this superfood a branded supermarket term and marketing ploy given to us to be buying more of the goods.

If I can add going to clarify a lot of this in bullets make it easier for you. Basically because the more the understanding of nutrition and what you need to make the right choices the decisions you could make .

Can benefit you in the long run, I use Food Science as my main aim to help me heal and give my wellbeing a lot of thought.

1. Metabolic rate is the one of the major issues with those wishing a healthy lifestyle. Metabolic rate is the in house bodies system for controlling hunger.

2. Energy plays a important part in our lives from our food getting right balance of sugar which converts to glucose to glycogen.

3. We need to function so by using the energy from food helps us to function, the problem is too much glycogen means the body has to store this.

Which is converted in to stores of fat.

4. Every one is different especially the need to consider losing weight. Yet those same wishing to lose weight may not some may all depends on the metabolic rate.

5. Those who see the opportunity to look at those wishing losing weight know this so imply works for every one not true.

6. Money making incentives for these products, a further note.

Always check with GP any desires to lose weight and discuss this.

7. Fat is not the enemy as often we need fats the right ones in our bodies systems to function but not in high amounts.

8. We need to then evaluate the need for sensible choices and be aware of the nutritional content that losing weight can happen.

9. As mentioned the before in previous post these tips choices offered can be beneficial and worth considering.

10 . Do we get pressurized in to losing weight by financial means incentives marketing or do we do this our selves.

11. Start by thinking of the Breakfast the most important meal of the day.

Choices need to be nutritional energized food to sustain the start of the day.

In my opinion this my choices never skip meals.

Breakfast should include Eggs, Oats Whole Grains and Fruit Dairy if of course this the problem those.

Food intolerances allergies is finding an equal balanced way of nutrition with out causing health issues.

Which I know for many can be a struggle.

Think then outside of the box, use Vegetables as main source of energy and nutrition.

I would look at Soups make them you self, I often do eat Vegetable Soup easy to do.

If I have nothing in for Breakfast. Use Tomato Based ones . Minestrone, Beans Chickpeas.

Make your own , ask me for recipes happy to do so.

11. As mentioned before using portion control essential as needed the restrictions means can not pile up bowl.

Brain training teach you self really eat with your eyes and not your stomach, if you eat slowly.

Take your time small portions then you will feel full yet have not consumed the huge amount at all.

Make it colourful use herbs spices. Tomatoes based use this with jar Roasted Peppers sauce blitzed up bright red tangy sauce.

Herbs Spices to aid digestion stomach problems helps with meals stimulation and appetite .

Bay leaves, Coriander, Fennel Seeds, also curbs appetite can do.

Mint, Parsley, Rosemary, Sage, Thyme.

Spices Cumin, Cinnamon, Ginger, Turmeric.

Note please use in small amounts large amounts can be toxic harmful.

12. This is important takes around 20 minutes or just maybe more to adjust being full .

So if you continue to eat consume more with out being aware then the brain. Will not register and stomach so consume more than needed.

13. Quick note if you go out to restaurant all staff chefs cooks takes each order ten minutes minimum in between orders.

As they know reasons added meals are small portions same reason.

14. Look at cooking programmes ideas and ways they prepare food the way the set up and how they present food.

15. Be aware of adrenaline is our enemy not fat. If you eat quickly that is adrenaline we can nor control this but adapt go around to deal with the desires of hunger.

16. Make meals with the ratios I suggested before and build your bowl.

In many restaurants around the World bowls are becoming the normality so why not.

Salad Bowls, Curry Bowls, Pasta Bowls all add in a good percentage of vegetables.

17. Vegetables the main focus of the bowl all times. Spinach leafy greens known to fill stomachs curb hunger.

Including Broccoli, Kale, Cabbage so on.

As does Grains, Pulses, Beans Rice Pasta all expand in the body stomach meaning you are full.

18. Also as explained before by adjusting schedules times to eat depends on structure of family lifestyle eating late is a problem near to bedtime.

19. Means takes hours to digest meals so retire to bed at a suitable time.

I would like to add finally this has helped me and it is worth finding out by using a food diary.

Often a solution to answering your own questions does this food effect me does this food cause intolerance .

Why can not sleep is this because of the close times to bed time or being doing other activities .

I do know since investigations in to my own health issues needed to explore more education knowledge to help me benefitted me.

I hope every one enjoys reading thank you all

Hi MrRigatoni

Wow, lots of information in your lists today - you mentioned recipes, and I was wondering if you've done any recipes for Arrabiata Sauce - or some other tomato based sauce for pasta that you like? I usually buy a shop-bought version of 'arrabiata sauce' but I am hoping to make my own, so would value a recipe. I've got plenty of tomatoes and also some chillies, and I'll be making it in the next couple of days - no problem if you haven't got a recipe for it, as I'll be googling - but thought I'd see if you've got one first.

Best wishes,

Zest

Hello MrRigatoni this is confusing as you said:

Breakfast should include Eggs, Oats Whole Grains and Fruit Dairy if of course this the problem those.

Hello yes apologise did not word it probably something I am not aware of . Just getting used again to writing posts.

My excuse my issue have some days thoughts can get muddled did write it down to copy.

On medications mornings mind all over the place again my issue so need to as mentioned.

I added the list to eat as it not essential to eat all of the groups suggested but a variety.

I do understand if you had a breakfast oat based Porridge then add Milk of course water, fruit and berries Yoghurt Honey or Cinnamon.

Or use Eggs make vegetables Frittatas or Pancakes with Fruit . Just some ideas that is all.

I know with the struggle of those with food intolerances, allergies never easy solutions although many websites have been giving a lot of guidance.

Suggested Veggie Soup a solution if that is suitable just know around different cultures and cuisines do some sort of Soup.

Please be happy if you think in correctly worded something or not seems right to you please do so or just inform me.

I am honest open approach we are human after all.

Please to meet you thank you for reply and supporting my post.
