This is the reason Stew Noodles Water Must be Disposed


Instant noodle is one of the foods that are most easily found, practical, and well liked by many people because it tastes good. A long shelf power also makes instant noodles often be the choice for those who live alone, but do not have time to cook.

Even so, eating too much instant noodles will allegedly cause many negative effects to the body by as preservatives or flavoring ingredients taste. Then, in addition to carbohydrate content, instant noodles do not contain enough vitamins, minerals, or fiber, which is beneficial for the body. So, basically instant noodles do not have enough nutrients for the human body's nutritional balance.

"But the most dangerous is the content of preservatives, MSG (monosodium glutamate), and food coloring agent that is in instant noodles," said Dr. Patricia Wijaya, a specialist beauty of Beauty Inc.. to Compass Female, after the launch of a new instant noodle products at Swiss Bel Hotel, Central Jakarta, Sunday (01/08/2012) then.

Hazardous ingredients in instant noodles is derived from the processing until the preservation process is done in a way to fry noodles until dry. The frying process usually used cooking oil, which makes cooking water becomes cloudy and a bit greasy when boiled.

"A lot of people who say that this first cooking water should be discarded in order to preserved missing. But preservatives actually will not go away, "said Dr. Patricia.

Instant noodle cooking water will first remove the oil and other chemicals that may be used to make. However, preservatives and other content that is harmful to health when further processing will not go away 100 percent. He will only be reduced slightly when first cooking water discarded.

Oil content, preservatives, MSG, and the dye will remain attached to the instant noodles even though the levels are already reduced by several percent. You need to know, use of preservatives is not always dangerous, because the manufacturers of instant noodles safe course must follow the standards established Food and Drug Supervisory Agency (BPOM). But the content of these chemicals is still potential to cause various health problems when consumed regularly. "The effect is indeed perceived long-term effects, such as indigestion, constipation, indigestion to cancer, and others," he said.

In the long run, these chemicals will also be very dangerous for the beauty of the face and skin. The skin becomes more dry, that would cause various symptoms of premature aging. In addition, instant noodles will also ruin your diet program, because of the high calorie content. Once again, one should not enjoy the instant noodles, but should not be consumed too often. Do not make instant noodles as a main dish, but rather as an interlude snacks only. Keep eating foods with balanced nutrition for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

Beware, Drinking Water While Eating


You have a habit of drinking a lot when you're eating? It looks like you should immediately change the habit. Therefore, a sip of water when eating was found to inhibit the digestion in the stomach.

Counselors microbiotic from India, Shonali Sabherwal, say, when eating is not the right time to satisfy your thirst. "People do not know how to drink water while eating their digestion difficult enough," said Sabherwal as quoted by the Times of India.

Research shows that drinking a little water during the meal is not a concern. However, drinking a glass or two drinks can interfere with digestion. The researchers found that it is best to drink water before eating and two hours afterwards. This helps in the absorption of nutrients.
Sabherwal said that drinking water while eating can dilute the concentration of stomach acid (HCl). To digest food, your body requires a certain concentration of HCl. However, because they drink lots of water, the concentration of HCl is reduced. As a result, only a few foods that can be digested by the body. This, if allowed to continue could cause various diseases.
Stomach acid, in addition to aid digestion also functions as an anti-bacterial. If the stomach is not working optimally, will be able to affect the work of other digestive organs become more severe, causing an imbalance of metabolism.

In order to not feel thirsty when eating, Sabherwal called for not too much to eat salty foods. "Make sure your food is not too salty because it will further create a thirst," he said. Digestion in order to keep it running well even without assisted by water, he suggested that chew slowly. When chewing, mouth secretes enzymes that help break down food so that the task of digesting food in the stomach becomes lighter.

Consumption of fish is recommended every day. This recommendation is based on positive nutritional value contained in fish. Proteins in fish are similar to those found in meat and poultry. Fat content of fish is very variable and generally lower than meat and poultry, including cholesterol content.

Some types of fish (like salmon, trout, and herring) are high in polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) or so-called omega-3 fatty acids have been shown to provide health benefits, especially associated with heart health.

4. Chicken

Chicken meat or poultry is a source of protein-rich foods and iron are easily absorbed and utilized by the body. To reduce saturated fat intake, it is advisable to only eat meat, and discard the skin. Offal or organ meats, like liver and kidneys, the heart also, is not recommended to be consumed on a regular basis because it is relatively high cholesterol content.

3. Eggs


As a cheap source of protein, eggs are also useful for preventing heart attacks. One of them by selecting eggs which are rich in antioxidants, ie, eggs from chickens fed feed containing omega-6 fatty acids lower.
"Antioxidants in chicken eggs can reduce the effects of oxidation of cholesterol in the blood that affects the narrowing of the arteries," said Niva Shapira, a professor of nutrition at the University of Tel Aviv, Israel, who conducted research on eggs.
Benefits of antioxidants is just one of a series of benefits of eggs. But you also need to be wary of cholesterol content in eggs. People who have bad cholesterol (LDL), high mengasup only allowed less than 200 mg of cholesterol per day, this means is prohibited mengonsomsi yolk because cholesterol content reaches 213 mg.

Here are tips for choosing a healthy chicken eggs.

Choose rich in omega-3 "Label eggs that contain omega-3 means a guarantee that a hen had been fed a high omega-3 fatty acid that increases levels of healthy eggs," said Kathy Nichols, a nutritionist from California. Eggs that contain omega-3 has 400 mg EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and omega-3 DHA ((docosahexaenoic acid). Regular chicken eggs contain only 40 mg.
Color brown or white?
Basically there is no nutritional difference between brown chicken eggs or white.
Nothing should be organic
Organic chicken egg farms means that chicken feeding livestock with organic foods and this means it will reduce the pesticides in the earth. But in terms of health, in fact this is not much of an effect due to toxins from pesticides have no effect on the egg itself.
The research team from the University of Oregon found that although labeled as organic eggs have omega-3 levels are the same as regular eggs. In other words, organic feeding had no effect on nutrient levels, so is the chicken or the stable release.

However, eggs are also often had a bad reputation as a high-cholesterol foods. So, do we need to limit consumption of eggs or avoid it altogether?
The truth is that eating eggs is not bad for health. The fact that eating eggs may trigger the risk of cardiovascular disease is a common mistake.
According to research published in the Journal of the American College of Nutrition (2000), where the research was conducted to estimate the association between egg consumption and cholesterol levels, the eggs provide important nutritional contribution to diet and not associated with high cholesterol.
This study showed that those who ate four or more eggs a week, actually have lower cholesterol levels than those who did not eat at all or only eating one egg per week.
Some researchers also believe that a substance called 'choline', which is found mainly in the egg yolks, mamapu against the harmful effects of cholesterol contained in egg yolk. Choline may help lower cholesterol levels associated with cardiovascular disease. One egg provides 30 percent of daily requirement per person, which plays an important role in brain health and reduction of inflammation.
In 2010, a Harvard research involving more than 21,000 male physicians over a period of 20 years, and at which time their average age 54 years. The study found that men who ate seven or more eggs per week, 23 percent more likely to die from any cause. However, egg consumption was not associated with an increased risk of heart attack or stroke, even among men who consumed more than seven eggs per week.
Proponents say that the eggs, the study does not provide enough evidence to blame the egg. According to them, the studies were not told about the causes of death and no information was quite clear about what-what they eat.
For extra security, you must be careful not to eat too much fried eggs because you also will consume fat from oil eggs. The key here is, do not prepare eggs by attaching too much butter or oil.

If you're really worried about the cholesterol content in eggs, you can eat egg whites only. Egg white is the best choice, especially if you are trying to reduce calories. Egg white is a fantastic source of protein, but without the fat.
One more fears that might arise when we eat the eggs is the presence of bacterial contamination in eggs. As known, in foreign countries like the United States, one in 20,000 eggs is contaminated with the risk of Salmonella, bacteria that can cause extreme suffering of the intestine.

However, this can easily be avoided if the eggs are stored in the refrigerator, thoroughly cooked and eaten immediately after cooking. Salmonella bacteria multiply rapidly at room temperature. So make sure you buy eggs at the store of existing refrigeration equipment and place the eggs in the fridge (coldest part of refrigerator and not at the door) as soon as you get home.
How much you should consume in a day?
Large egg can contain about 213 milligrams of cholesterol, which is contained in the yolk. If you want to be healthy, follow the dietary recommendations suggested that cholesterol intake should not exceed 300 mg per day.
American Heart Association states, setelur a day is still within reasonable limits to health. However, you should not consume more foods high in cholesterol such as milk, meat and poultry. If you have a disease such as heart disease or diabetes, it is recommended to consult a doctor or nutritionist regarding consumption limits


Eggs have a high nutritional value and is therefore recommended to be consumed by all healthy people. Eggs can be an important source of protein for children. Eggs are also relatively cheap compared with foods of animal origin.
Protein in eggs has very good quality, and number only slightly lower than the meat. Eggs are a source of vitamin B12, iron, and zinc. Egg yolks contain large amounts of cholesterol, but do not like dairy products and meat. So, for adults with high blood cholesterol, egg yolk consumption should be limited, for example, three eggs per week.

2. "Legumes" (legumes)

Protein content of legumes (beans) are generally similar to the meat and poultry. However, they usually have fewer amino acids (protein building block). Legumes can also be regarded as a starchy food which is the best source of dietary fiber. In addition to protein and fiber, they also provide other nutrients such as iron and zinc. However, iron and zinc from plant sources is less bioavailable than those originating in animals.

Some specific types of legumes also contain various phytochemicals. Bioactive substances have potential health benefits for a variety of chronic diseases. Soybeans and other products, such as tofu, tempeh, bean sprouts, and miso are some nuts the most widely consumed.

1. "Nuts" and "seeds" (nuts and seeds)

Nuts and seeds can be selected for inclusion in the diet. Many types of beans that can be consumed, such as almonds, pecans, pistachios, and walnuts. There are also various kinds of seeds, like sunflower seeds, pumpkin, sesame, and flax. Nuts and seeds are a source of protein and nutrients. Nuts are also high in fiber and rich in various vitamins and minerals.

Nuts are good sources of monounsaturated fatty acids and also contains essential polyunsaturated fats, the body needs to perform a number of vital processes. However, nuts are also high in fat. Therefore, these foods should not be consumed too much.

In particular, it helps to reduce the risk of lung diseases, including lung cancer. Broccoli contains sulforaphane, a substance that increases the activity of NRF2 gene and protect the lungs from damage by toxins from nicotine. Unfortunately, the study found evidence that the therapeutic properties of broccoli does not work for smokers because nicotine killing activity of sulforaphane.

5. Red wine (red wine)
A glass of red wine a day lowers the risk of lung cancer in both smokers and nonsmokers. The researchers from South California found that people who drank a glass of red wine every day has a 60 percent lower chance of developing lung cancer. Red wine has flavonoids and resveratrol, are also very useful for heart and blood (as it prevents blood clotting).

Facts About Food Fiber



We all already know that our bodies require fiber foods for health. Nevertheless, there are still many people who always skip-fiber foods to be present in their daily menu. How important is fiber? How much fiber do we need to consume each day? Now, let us know more about these fibrous foods.

Fiber, or in a foreign language is called fiber, is one type of carbohydrate that builds the structure of leaves, stems, and roots of plants. However, unlike other types of carbohydrates are sugars and starches, fibers will remain intact until they approach the final part of our digestive system. Nature that is the one for the health benefits of fiber.

Is it true all the same type of fiber? Wrong. Basically, there are two kinds of fiber types with different functions. The first is referred to as insoluble fiber, which is usually found in nuts and many vegetables. Its structure is thick and rough, and not soluble in water. These fibers will be intact until the end of the digestive system.

The second is the soluble fiber found in oats, beans, barley, and some types of fruit. This fiber is soluble in water and form a gel-like structures in the digestive tract. This fiber will inhibit the absorption of sugar into the blood vessels. If taken regularly every day, this fiber will be able to reduce levels of LDL cholesterol (bad cholesterol).

Is it true that fiber contains no calories? Almost true. Insoluble fiber can produce as much carbohydrate calories usual. However, for insoluble fiber can be said to contain no calories. In the digestive tract, both types of fiber can not be broken down in the small intestine. While in the large intestine, soluble fiber molecules can be converted into short chain fatty acids that can produce calories.

Is it true that fiber can lose weight? Right. People who are adding fiber to the diet they will be able to lose weight more than those without. Need more fiber chewed and can slow the absorption of nutrients in the intestine, so that your body will think that you have enough to eat. In addition, the fibers can stimulate CCK hormone, a hormone that suppresses appetite.

Is it true that fiber may prevent colon cancer? Maybe. Researchers are still different opinions on this matter. However, it is said that the intake of fiber can prevent various chronic diseases. Therefore, experts strongly recommend us to increase fiber intake.

Really we need an intake of 38 grams of fiber each day? Wrong. 38 grams of fiber equivalent to 9 or 12 apples bowl of instant oatmeal. Maybe for some people the number is too many. Therefore, the adjusted fiber intake according to your needs. However, any excess is not good. The important thing is to maintain a balance intake of nutrients as needed by the body.
