General kitchen advice

Oven Tips : Cook with the oven door closed. A partially open door wastes energy, costs you money, and warms you instead of the food.

Buy Local Food : Cultivate an awareness of how far your food travels. When Rich Pirog, Food Systems Program Leader for the Leopold Center for Sustainable Agriculture at Iowa State University, tracked the miles traveled for 16 types of produce, he found that locally sourced fruits and vegetables such as apples, lettuce and tomatoes traveled an average of 56 miles, compared to 1,494 miles — nearly 27 times farther — for the same fruits and vegetables delivered through conventional retail channels. Things get stickier with combination foods, strawberry yogurt for example. Pirog came up with 2,216 miles by adding up the distance traveled for the yogurt’s milk, sugar and strawberries. That figure could be slashed by 90 percent if you buy plain yogurt and stir in some locally grown honey and fruit.

Weight loss info

The Glycaemic Index Diet
The gi index weight loss program is based around the gi index, a list showing foods and a score illustrating the rapidity with which the energy of the food gets converted to glucose in the dieters system. The claim is that slow acting foods (ie those food types with a low Glycaemic index score), will keep you feeling full for longer and help to consume fewer food without feeling you are always hungry.
It is also extremely good for diabetes sufferers, as the low GI foods are useful in controlling surges in blood glucose levels.
