Combine 1 cup of flour and the yeast. Add to the batter. Beat for 2
minutes on medium speed or 300 strokes by hand. Stir in the oats and
caraway with a wooden spoon. Stir in enough additional flour to make a

Place in a greased large bowl. Brush the top with vegetable oil.
Cover with a damp kitchen towel and let rise in a warm place until
double in size, about 1 hour.
Punch the dough down. Divide it in half and shape to form two loaves.
Place in two greased 8 1/2 " x 4 1/2 " loaf pans. Brush with melted
margarine or butter. Cover and let rise until nearly double in size,
about 1 hour. When almost doubled, preheat the oven to 375 F. Bake

loaves.

Weight loss systemsThe Zone Diet The Zone diet is a nutrition and weight loss system initially advocated by Barry Sears in a series of books, publications and an accompanying website. The Zone diet is not particularly a weight reduction diet, nevertheless many followers claim that they really manage to lose a few pounds by following this system. The supposed science behind the Zone Diet is that if you manage to gain control of the amount of insulin and glucogen (two hormones), then your body releases eicosanoids which puts your body in a state of balance which is much, much more healthful than normal, known as the 'zone'. Sears claims that when your body is in this 'zone' it is perfectly balanced and, as a result, does not build up fat. The main procedure of the zone diet is to maintain the exact ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to take large amounts of Omega 3 fish oils. The Glycaemic Index Diet The gi (or glycaemic index) nutrition and weightloss system is linked to the gi (or glycaemic index), a chart showing food types and a score representing the ease with which the glucose in the food type gets converted to sugar in your body. The believe is that slow acting types of food (ie those foods with a low Glycaemic score), suppress your appetite and help to cut down on food without feeling hungry. It's also beneficial for people with diabetes, as the low GI foods are useful in managing surges in blood glucose secretion. |
