Cooking advice

Time for cooking is often in short supply, but you can cut cooking time in half by making large batches and eating the leftovers another day. In an age when the average American spends only 32 minutes a day preparing food, strategy is crucial to increasing your consumption of local food.


Buy Local Food : As an ‘everything in moderation’ kind of guy, I’d find a strict local food diet fascinating but obsessive and intimidating, says Peter Marks, program coordinator for the Appalachian Sustainable Agriculture Project in Asheville, N.C. He suggests a more gradual approach: Every week or month, replace one food in your diet that’s provided by a big, faraway company with a locally grown food.

The Glycaemic Index Diet
The glycaemic index diet system is reliant on the gi (or glycaemic index), a list of types of food and a score representing the rapidity with which the glucose and energy of the food gets changed to glucose in the dieters blood stream. The theory is that long-acting food types (ie those food types with a low Glycaemic score), keep you satiated for longer and mean that you can injest less food without feeling you are missing out.
It is also very useful for diabetes sufferers, as the low GI types of food are useful in preventing surges in blood sugar amount.
