Cyclone Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 It's not boring, the problem is that it's misleading. I'd hate to see anyone believe the drivel about lemon juice or low salt or any other magic diet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SportsTrophy Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 It is hard to realise but people doing computer work use as much energy as people with physical jobs. The unknowing consequences are dehydration and a need to eat loads. This is because the brain needs fatty oils omega3+6 found in freshwater fish, green leaf veg and seed oils but gets body fuel instead. It is important to fuel the brain and not the body if you do more sit down office work. Glucose, amino acids and micro-nutrients are also necessary. The main thing is to stop eating trans fats in margarine, oily chips as these will destroy your brain and zap your energy. Your increase in energy will allow you to exercise more and then keep up the water intake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redruby Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 There's a book called 'The Miracle of Lemons' by Dr Penny Stanway which is really interesting, lemons really are a superfood http://www.amazon.co.uk/The-Miracle-Lemons-Practical-Health/dp/1907486488/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1335097112&sr=1-2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyclone Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 There are no superfoods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pfifes Posted April 23, 2012 Author Share Posted April 23, 2012 There are no superfoods. Whether or not one believes in the existance of a 'superfood', what cannot be disputed are the multifarious benefits of eating lemons. "Dr Penny Stanway practised for several years as a GP and as a child-health doctor before becoming increasingly interested in the benefits of a healthy diet and other natural approaches to health and well-being."

Cyclone Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 I'm sure that lemons can form part of a healthy diet, they may even be better in some ways than other fruits, but they aren't magic and won't cause you to loose weight if you are consuming too many calories.

Indeed. But one must not underestimate the considerable curative power of the humble lemon http://lemonmania.com/lemon-health-benefits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redruby Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Well of course eating the odd lemon won't make you lose weight if you're troughing on burgers and cakes as well but lemons can certainly help with weight loss as part of a calorie controlled diet by providing an excellent source of nutrients but few calories.
