Flavonoid foods (inlcudes garlic, kohlrabi, soya beans and peppermint) The flavonoids discovered in these fruit, vegetables and pulses are believed to have properties in helping to prevent cancer. Nutritionalists who have been studying the effects of flavonoids suspect that they could also have many other healthy properties, amongst them, anti-candida and antioxidant powers. The majority of these also have a low calorie count, so should be included in your diet. The Glycaemic Index Diet The glycaemic index diet system is linked to the gi (or glycaemic index), a list showing foods and a score representing the rapidity with which the glucose in the food gets converted to sugar in your body. The theory is that slow release food types (ie those food types with a low Glycaemic index score), suppress your appetite and help to eat less food without craving snacks all the time. It is also extremely useful for sufferers from diabetes, as the low GI foods are helpful in minimizing surges in glucose amount. |
