Foods containing allyl sulfides
( includes eschalot, chives and green onion) The onion family of foods is rich in allyl sulfides, a chemical which experts believe may be linked to a reduced risk of stomach and colon cancer. Even though there is little scientific proof obtainable, allyl sulphides are also believed to reduce symptoms with blood circulation, arteriosclerosis and physical exhaustion. Foods containing allyl sulfides are also good for weight loss, so should be included in every diet. The South Beach Diet The South Beach diet is a diet started by Dr. arthur agatston, a cardiologist from miami, usa, which stresses that one should eat "good carbs" instead of "bad carbohydrates" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats" Dr. agatston invented his dietary regime for people who have cardiac problems, as a consequence of his analysis of scientific studies on other dietary studies. Examples of good foods include, lean beef, turkey breast, fish, fat free cheese, pistachios, lowfat milk and some vegatables, such as asparagus, broccoli and turnips. |
