General cooking tips

Buy Organic Foods : There are 12 foods where buying organic makes even more sense than normal.
According to the EWG (Environmental Working Group) the 12 most contaminated foods are:
  • apples
  • bell peppers
  • celery
  • cherries
  • imported grapes
  • nectarines
  • peaches
  • pears
  • potatoes
  • red raspberries
  • spinach
  • strawberries
All tested positive for pesticide residue – even after having been washed! Sweet bell peppers were the vegetable with the most pesticides overall, with 39 pesticides detected on a single sample. Conversely, if you're going to buy conventional, peas, broccoli, onions, pineapples, mangoes, bananas, kiwi and papaya had the lowest occurrence of pesticide residue.


When you are travelling, you should have a quick think about where your food has come from. When/if it is locally produced, your food is likely to be tastier, better for the local economy and fresher.


Dieting 101

The Glycaemic Index Diet
The glycaemic index diet system is linked to the glycaemic index, a list showing food types and a score illustrating the rapidity that the glucose of the food type gets changed to sugar in the dieters system. The claim is that slow release food types (ie those food types with a low Glycaemic index score), suppress your appetite and mean that you can consume fewer food without starving yourself.
It's also extremely useful for diabetics, as the low GI types of food are useful in controlling rises in blood glucose levels.
