Recipies to Suit You!
Most of us know that the word diet means 'what we eat'. We all need different amounts of different raw materials (e.g carbohydrates, minerals, protein etc.).Raw materials are really important as they make substances for
* Growth and Repair
* Health
* Energy.
Carbohydrates are consumed for energy. Energy is measure in Kilo joules. However, we are all advised to eat a certain amount of carbohydrates but is that right for you?
Its so obvious that different people need different amount of Carbohydrates for example a football player would need more carbohydrate than a mathematician would do.
You need to look at different foods and estimate how much of that food you need for example eating pasta dishes and rice will just give you a lot of carbohydrates. You need to burn these carbohydrates off otherwise they are stored as fat. You can estimate this by considering your occupation and how active you are and then think how much carbohydrates you need.
If you simply just eat a lot of rice and pasta than you may become overweight unless if you burn it off. The main problem is that carbohydrates when they are not burnt off as energy then they are stored as fat. Therefore its important that you work out how much you need.
Some things that concern how much carbohydrates you eat are environmental factors like what you work as how much sports you play etc. However there are different diets too suit different people like diabetes that is simply too much sugar in the blood therefore they would need to eat food with not that much sugar. You would think. However when you eat Carbohydrates the enzymes break it down in glucose (sugar) so you are consuming sugar by eating carbohydrates!
