  • The Way to Lose Weight
    Leicestershire Nutrition and Dietetic Service The Way To Lose Weight There are 3 sections in this leaflet, each designed to help you with weight loss. For weight loss to happen, you will almost certainly need to reduce your energy intake (eat fewer calories) and increase your activity levels and this leaflet contains information to help you. For some of you reading this leaflet, being overweight will be something you have always had to cope with; for others it will have been a gradual process of weight gain over the years. Whichever category you fall into, you will have well established eating and activity habits which are part of your normal behaviour, in other words things you do automatically, almost without thinking. We have therefore included some tips on changing behaviour, because this is likely to help in the long run. Making changes in each of the 3 areas below will give you a much better chance of success: ➢ Making healthy food choices ➢ Increasing activity levels ➢ Changing behaviour MAKING HEALTHY FOOD CHOICES Introduction Eating and drinking fewer calories does not necessarily mean you have to count them (although some people might find a portion counting approach helpful and this can be discussed with your dietitian). Choosing foods from the Balance of Good Health will help you eat less fat and sugar and therefore fewer calories. It will also make it easier for you to choose a nutritionally balanced diet so that you get the right amounts of vitamins and minerals. Eating in this way also helps protect against heart disease, diabetes, some cancers and bowel disorders.

Squash is atype of fruit beverage which contains at least 25 per cent of fruit portion (juice/pulp) and not less than 40 per cent of total soluble solids (sugar). In also contains edible acid in the range of 1-2 per cent.

  • Fizzy Water - the Soft Drinks Industry
    FIZZY WATER - THE SOFT DRINKS INDUSTRY In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries Hull had a thriving industry making what we would now call soft drinks. Ginger beer had been made since the early nineteenth century. The 1823 Directory has 2 ginger beer makers, and this had doubled by 1829. The drink was made from a plant culture, and was produced in many homes for domestic consumption right up to modern times. “Aerated water” had been available since the 1790s. It was actually carbonated water, with carbonic acid gas introduced under pressure to make the water fizzy. A Swedish chemist, Bergman, had invented a commercial process for this, but it was Jacob Schweppe in Geneva who developed a condensing machine to impregnate the water with gas and made a viable industry possible. There wasn't much call for “aerated water” in England until the Temperance movement got under way. The critical year for Hull appears to have been 1874, when the Good Templars held their first meeting and the Band of Hope was established. Bulmer's Directory of 1892 reports: “The Temperance Friendly Societies, the Sons of Temperance, the Independent Order of Rechabites and the Sons of Phoenix are also strong here, having a large number of divisions and tents.” Individual churches and chapels had their own Temperance groups. To cater for this abstemious market, and provide an alternative to the vast number of pubs in the city, the Hull People's Public House Company Ltd. was formed. An advertisement of 1891 shows that the company owned 19 hotels and cafés, two of them described as “high class” by Bulmer's – the Café De-la-Pole in Silver St.

  • Aperitifs, Cordials, and Liqueurs
    Chapter 6 Aperitifs, Cordials, and Liqueurs In This Chapter ▶ Serving up some tasty before-dinner drinks ▶ Examining the vast world of cordials and liqueurs his chapter is a catchall for a handful of different liquor Tcategories. Aperitifs were developed specifically as pre-meal beverages. Cordials and liqueurs have a variety of purposes. Some are great mixers, others are good after-dinner drinks, and a few make good aperitifs as well. Go figure. Whetting Your Appetite with Aperitifs Aperitif comes from the Latin word aperire, meaning “to open.” An aperitif is usually any type of drink you’d have before a meal. Most aperitifs are usually low in alcohol and mild-tasting. You can drink many of the cordials and liqueurs listed later in this chapter as aperitifs as well. I don’t have much more to say about aperitifs other than to list the individual products that are available, such as the following: ✓ Amer Picon (French): A blend of African oranges, gen- tian root, quinine bark, and some alcohol. Usually served with club soda or seltzer water with lemon. ✓ Campari (Italian): A unique combination of fruits, spices, herbs, and roots. 54 Part II: Distilling the High Points of Various Spirits ✓ Cynar (Italian): A bittersweet aperitif that’s made from artichokes. Best when served over ice with a twist of lemon or orange. ✓ Dubonnet (American): Produced in California and avail- able in blond and red. Serve chilled. ✓ Fernet-Branca (Italian): A bitter, aromatic blend of approximately 40 herbs and spices (including myrrh, rhubarb, camomile, cardamom, and saffron) in a base of grape alcohol.
