7 Healthy Carbs to Help You Lose Weight
Carb is not always a “four-letter” word! Bad carbohydrates, like white bread or sugary drinks, are quickly absorbed by the body, triggering blood sugar spikes and weight gain. In contrast, good carbohydrates are loaded with nutrients and fiber, so the body absorbs them more slowly for sustained, and healthy, energy burn. Add these 7 healthy carbs to help you lose weight to your menu plan this week.

We’re talking roughly 19.5 teaspoons of sugar, when you shouldn’t be eating more than about six to nine teaspoons.

When you have just faced a 35 degree day and you are staring down the barrel of a week of mid-high 30′s, watermelon and air conditioning are two of your best friends. In all honesty, when it is that hot I don’t really feel like eating much (okay, that doesn’t stop me though!). I could easily survive on a few salads and fresh, cold fruit… my favourite being anything tropical.
I originally created this in honour of returning to work. I was trying to think of some healthy, back to school afternoon, post school snacks. I remember the days that my cousins and I would all file through the door of Grandma’s, my aunty’s or my house. There would be a wide selection to choose from- fruit, cakes, biscuits or warm pikelets, pancakes and like all good Hungarian grandmas… Frankfurts in winter with our own little coloured forks. One for each of us… mine was pink and I wonder whatever happened to that…

Vary Choices Of Fruit And Vegetables
Key facts
- A healthy diet helps protect against malnutrition in all its forms, as well as noncommunicable diseases (NCDs), including obesity, diabetes, heart disease, stroke and cancer.
- Unhealthy diet and lack of physical activity are leading global risks to health.
- Healthy dietary practices start early in life – breastfeeding may have longer-term benefits, like reducing the risk of overweight and obesity in childhood and adolescence.
- Energy intake (calories) should balance energy expenditure. Evidence indicates that total fat should not exceed 30% of total energy intake to avoid unhealthy weight gain (1, 2, 3), with a shift in fat consumption away from saturated fats to unsaturated fats (3), and towards the elimination of industrial trans fats (4).
- Limiting intake of free sugars to less than 10% of total energy (2, 5) is part of a healthy diet. A further reduction to less than 5% of total energy (6) is suggested for additional health benefits.
- Keeping salt intake to less than 5 g per day helps prevent hypertension and reduces the risk of heart disease and stroke in adult population (7).
- WHO Member States have agreed to reduce the global population’s intake of salt by 30% and halt the rise in diabetes and obesity by 2025.
