  • 24 Tips for Feeding Veggies and Vegans at Barbecuesаа
    24 tips for feeding veggies and vegans at barbecues It doesn't have to be stuffed mushrooms and salad More From Fashion, Hair & Beauty, Sex and Relationships :: Cosmopolitan UK 538 Barbecues are a really fun excuse to get together, enjoy good weather and have great company. However, if you're hosting a BBQ, you may experience the sinking feeling of cluelessness when it comes to veggie or vegan options. Luckily, I'm a long­time vegan and have found lots of great alternatives to meaty burgers that are simple to cook and delicious. Plus, I've got some little tips to get you around tricky areas, like meat­veg contamination and food mix­ups. Trust me: cater well for a veggie or vegan at a BBQ and they'll appreciate it big time. 1. There are now many options for meat substitutes that cook just as well as the real deal on the barbecue, from vegetable protein shaped into sausages and burgers to tofu. Don't be afraid to start cooking them indoors before taking them to the barbecue – it'll save time. 2. If using tofu, buy a firm type as it retains its shape best (Cauldron tofu is firm and is readily available in supermarkets.) Pat the tofu with kitchen roll before use to get any excess moisture out. It'll absorb more flavour that way. 3. For cheesy burgers and sausages, try Yorkshire­based company HECK's's veggie range, available in Waitrose and online. They also do vegan quinoa balls, which would make a great side or veg kebab bulker.

Recommended Daily Amount = 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of bodyweight (or 0.4 grams per pound) FUN FACTS If you’re eating a 2,000-calories-a-day diet and only ate broccoli, you’d get 146 grams of protein per day! Even a full day’s worth of plain mashed potatoes would give you 42 grams of protein per day. TOO MUCH Too much protein can stress the liver and kidneys. PROTEIN It can also cause stomach issues, bad breath, and weight gain. Proteins are made of 22 amino acids or “building blocks.” Our bodies can produce 13 of these, and 9 we synthesize from food (like plants). What Are Complete Proteins? Complete proteins contain all 9 essential amino acids that our body cannot make. Thankfully, If you eat enough calories and a variety of plant-based foods, you don’t have to worry!

  • A Good Source of Calcium for Babies and Children Dr Miriam Martinez-Biarge, Paediatrician
    a good source of calcium for babies and children Dr Miriam Martinez-Biarge, Paediatrician The best sources of calcium in plant-based diets are green vegetables rich in calcium and low in oxalate (as oxalate binds to calcium and impairs absorption). These green vegetables (broccoli, kale, spring greens, cavolo nero, Brussels sprouts, pak choi…) provide not only calcium but also many other nutrients and health benefits and should be part of our daily diet. However parents usually struggle to get their children to eat green veggies and frequently become over-anxious about it. Forcing or bribing our kids to eat vegetables - or any other kind of food – is almost always ineffective and can even be counter-productive. A much better strategy is to keep serving a wide variety of green vegetables at meal times, but without pressuring our children to eat them. We do not need to give any positive or negative reinforcement; we just need to offer these foods consistently and of course eat them ourselves! Sooner or later our children will become curious, will start trying these foods and will end up liking them. Every child needs their own time, so be patient. In the meantime, how can we make sure that our children are getting all the calcium they need? Breast milk (or formula milk if breast milk is not available) provides enough calcium for babies younger than one year therefore they do not need any other source of this nutrient. However as children start eating more solid foods and less milk we will have to introduce other calcium-rich foods in their diets.

The forecast shows that PBMA will double their value by 2023. The objective of this study was to analyze the nutritional value of commercial products in terms of their fatty acid profile and protein digestibility from commercial PBMA. Eight commercially available PBMA were selected for fatty acid analysis, performed with gas chromatography of methylated fatty acids (GC-FAME), and, from these, four commercial products (almond drink, hemp drink, oat drink, and soy drink) were selected for a short-term in vitro protein digestibility (IVPD) analysis. The fatty acid analysis results showed that most of the products predominantly contained oleic acid (C18:1 !-9) and linoleic acid (C18:2 !-6). Hemp drink contained the highest omega-6/omega-3 (!6/!3) ratio among all tested products (3.43).
