Lycopene foods (includes guava, red peppers & tomato puree) The phytochemical lycopene is a natural coloring compound and one of the carotenid family. This chemical is behind the vivid red color of some food types. Fortunately, unlike numerous other nutritional compounds, this useful phytochemical is not damaged if it is cooked, rather it is actually enhanced by cooking. . Lycoprene's most interesting advantage is that it is an antioxidant and is believed to help lower the chances of cancer. It is the most effective carotenoid quencher of singlet oxygen, which is correlated with skin aging. It's also thought by many experts to block the growth of atherosclerosis. The Glycaemic Index Diet The gi index weight loss regime is based around the gi index, a list showing foods and an indicator of the rapidity that the glucose in the food type gets converted to glucose in the dieters blood stream. The believe is that slow acting types of food (ie those with a low Glycaemic index score), keep you satiated for longer and mean that you can consume less food without feeling you are missing out. It's also extremely good for diabetes sufferers, as the low GI foods are useful in reducing increases in glucose secretion. |
