  • Sweetener Buying Guide
    Sweetener Buying Guide The intent of this guide is purely informational. The summaries included represent the highlights of each sweetener and are not meant to be comprehensive. The traffic light system is not a dietary recommendation but a buying guideline. Sugar, in any form (even honey, maple syrup and dried fruit), can suppress the immune system and throw our bodies out of balance. It is important to consume sugar smartly. Start by choosing the best sweeteners for you. Then keep in mind that sugar is best reduced or avoided when your immune system is compromised e.g. - if you have candida overgrowth, are chronically stressed, fatigued or in pain, are diabetic or pre-diabetic, have digestive issues (IBS, Crohn’s etc.), etc... For more detailed information on how sweeteners can affect your body speak to one of our expert nutritionists on staff!

  • Blood Type O Is the Oldest and Most Basic Blood Type
    EAT RIGHT FOR (4) YOUR TYPE In his book, EAT RIGHT FOR (4) YOUR TYPE, Dr. Peter D’Adamo teaches the fundamental relationship between your blood type and the dietary and lifestyle choices that will help you live at your very best. When you use the individualized characteristics of your blood type as a guide post for eating and living, you will be healthier, you will naturally reach your ideal weight, and you will slow the process of aging. You can pinpoint the foods that make you sick, contribute to weight gain, and lead to chronic disease. Our ancestors had unique blueprints that complemented their environments. The genetic characteristics of our ancestors live in our blood today, and it is this lesson we bring with us into our current understanding of blood types. Your Blood Type Plan lets you zero in on the health and nutrition information that corresponds to your exact biological profile. With this new information, you can now make choices about your diet, exercise regimen, and general health that are based on the dynamic natural forces within your own body. If you follow your Blood Type Plan carefully, you can: Avoid many common viruses and infections. Lose weight, as your body rids itself of toxins and fats. Fight back against life-threatening diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and liver failure. Avoid many of the factors that cause rapid cell deterioration, thus slowing down the aging process. Today, it is well accepted that nutrition has a direct impact on the state of our health and general well-being.

  • Sugar: the Many Names Used in Processed Foods
    Sugar: the Many Names Used in Processed Foods Both glucose and fructose are common, but they affect the body very differently. Glucose can be metabolized by nearly every cell in the body. Fructose is metabolized almost entirely in the liver. Fructose has harmful effects on the body, including insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, fatty liver, and type 2 diabetes. It is especially important to minimize the intake of high fructose sugars. Many processed foods will have a combination of sugars. Because the ingredient are listed in order of quantities, using several different sugar names presents the illusion that sugars are less prominent in the ratio of ingredients.

  • Tietoa Täysruokosokerista
    TIETOA TÄYSRUOKOSOKERISTA • valmistetaan käsityönä sokeriruo’osta • runsaasti vitamiineja, kivennäisaineita, antioksidantteja ja aminohappoja • aromaattinen maku Historia Trooppisilla alueilla sokeriruokoa on pureskeltu raakana jo vuosisatojen ajan sen makeuden vuoksi. Kauppareittejä pitkin sokeri levisi mm. Kiinaan ja Lähi-Itään, mutta sokerin erottaminen ruo’osta kehittyi Intiassa. Sokerin saavuttua Eurooppaan se oli aluksi teen ja kahvin ohella kallis luksustuote. Imperialismin aikaan Hollanti valloitti trooppisten alueiden ruokosokeriviljelmiä ja maasta tuli Euroopan sokerikaupan keskus. Vuonna 1747 saksalainen kemisti Andreas Sigismund Marggraf onnistui uuttamaan valkoista sokeria sokerijuurikkaasta (Beta vulgaris) keittämällä, siivilöimällä ja haihduttamalla. Lopputulos oli sama kuin tuotettaessa valkoista sokeria sokeriruo’osta ja kemistitkään eivät kyenneet erottamaan ruokosokeria ja juurikassokeria toisistaan. Napoleonin estäessä sokerin tuonnin Hollantiin, alkoi valkoisen juurikassokerin laajamittainen tuotanto ja voittokulku. Nykypäivänä Euroopassa tuotetaan 16 miljoonaa tonnia valkoista juurikassokeria joka vuosi. Valkoinen sokeri Sokerijuurikkaasta voidaan tuottaa ainoastaan valkoista sokeria, mutta sokeriruo’osta on mahdollista valmistaa eri asteisia sokereita. Teollisessa sokerin valmistuksessa ruokomehun melassiosa erotetaan sokeriosasta koska ruokomehua melasseineen on hankala käsitellä teollisesti. Melassin mukana poistuu 4/5 kivennäis- sekä hivenaineista ja tuloksena on raakaruokosokeri. Valkoista sokeria valmistettaessa

  • Glucose Syrup the Chef’S Magic Ingredient! CENTURIES of GASTRONOMIC TRADITION
    Glucose syrup The chef’s magic ingredient! CENTURIES OF GASTRONOMIC TRADITION A product with a proud heritage which plays a significant role in European gastronomy, glucose syrup is used in gourmet foods by pâtissiers, confectioners and chefs alike. This high- quality, plant-based product has been produced in Europe for over a century. In the EU, with its grain-based agriculture, glucose syrup is derived from wheat and maize; EU starch manufacturers source their products exclusively from conventional (non-GMO) crops. Glucose syrup is a sugar made from the hydrolysis (breaking down) of starch. It is available in liquid, solid and transparent form (similar to honey). It was discovered in the 9th century in Japan, and originally derived from sweet potatoes; the glucose syrup manufacturing process was developed in the 19th century by the German scientist, Kirchhoff. A number of culinary specialities benefit from the unique qualities of this ingredient. Bakery products: e.g. pastries, macaroons, cakes etc. Confectionery products: e.g. sweets, lozenges, nougat etc. Glucose syrup plays a vital role in these delicacies... A delight to the eyes and taste buds alike. Still have questions about starch and starch-based ingredients in food? VISIT WWW.STARCHINFOOD.EU TO LEARN MORE. GLUCOSE SYRUP AND DIET EFSA (The European Food Safety Authority)) recommends that carbohydrates should form 45- 60% of our overall energy intake, stating that “enjoyed occasionally and in reasonable quantity, sweetened products are compatible with a balanced diet”. Glucose syrups are part of the simple carbohydrate family, with the same calorific value as all other sugars (sucrose or white sugar, lactose, etc.) i.e.
