COACH Heart Manual Sometimes it may feel like detective work trying to understand a label – here’s some basic tips! INGREDIENTS s Listed in descending order by weight s Below are other words for fats, sugars, and salt FATS Fat, lard shortening Hydrogenated oils / partially hydrogenated oils Vegetable margarine Coconut, palm, palm kernel or 'tropical' oils Mono- and diglycerides, tallow SUGARS Sugar, honey, molasses Dextrose, sucrose, fructose Maltose, lactose, glucose Dextrin, maltodextrin, invert sugar Maple syrup, corn syrup, malt syrup SALT Salt, MSG (monosodium glutamate) Anything with the word 'sodium' Baking soda, baking powder, brine Kelp, soy sauce Source: Adapted from: Josephson, R. 1997. The Heart Smart Shopper: Nutrition on the Run. Vancouver All Low-Fat Diets Are Not Created Equal • Just because a food is low in fat does not mean it is good for you. • Remember your body does need healthy unsaturated fats to function! • Many 'low-fat' foods are high in sugar (e.g. diet cookies, frozen yogurt, low-fat granola etc.) • High intake of sugar in the form of sweetened desserts, fruit flavored yogurt and juice is associated with elevated triglyceride levels (a risk factor for heart disease). Diets where most of the sugar comes from fruits are associated with lowered triglyceride levels. Prepared for the COACH Program Health Care Professional Team. 84 Please do not copy without permission. COACH Heart Manual NUTRITION CLAIMS on packaged foods "Low fat" no more than 3 grams of fat per serving "Low saturated fat" no more than 2 grams of saturated fat per serving (and not more than 15% of calories from saturated fats) "Cholesterol free" no more than 3 mg of cholesterol per 100 grams of product. It must also meet the definition of 'low in saturated fat' which does NOT necessarily mean it is low in total fat. "Low calorie" no more than 15 calories per serving "Calorie reduced" no more than half the calories of the same food in its usual state. Note! This does not mean the food is low in calories! "Light" many different meanings… can refer to colour, taste, or texture and may have nothing to do with its calorie content. If 'light' is part of the common name of the food (for example 'light mayonnaise') then the product has to be lower in calories than the same product not marked 'light'. Source: Adapted from: Shop Smart Handbook. 1997. Shop Smart Tours Inc. 9. A Note about Desserts… The following low-fat desserts appear in your COACH Recipe Booklet. Please use these as an occasional 'treat' as they are high in sugar. Note - they may not be suitable for people with diabetes (except in small quantities as part of a meal plan). COACH Recipe Booklet: (found at www.coachkelowna.com ) • Mocha Meringue 'Nests' with Chocolate-Covered Coffee Bean 'Eggs' • Raspberry Pavlova Torte • Pumpkin Tart with Pecan Crust • Brown Rice Pudding • Pumpkin Custard • Dreamy Ricotta Dessert Topping • Low-fat Chocolate Fudge Sauce Prepared for the COACH Program Health Care Professional Team. 85 Please do not copy without permission. COACH Heart Manual Fibre s Undigested portion of plant s Found only in plant foods (NO FIBRE in animal products) s Average actual intake 5-10 grams per day; recommended intake 25 - 35 grams per day s Two types - soluble fibre and insoluble fibre: Type of Fibre Function Sources Soluble Helps control blood Oat bran, oatmeal, brown Fibre sugar levels & lowers rice, barley, pectin-rich fruits cholesterol (strawberries, apples, citrus), legumes Insoluble Prevents constipation Wheat bran and wheat bran Fibre and bowel disorders; cereals, most fruits and prevent certain types of vegetables, nuts and seeds cancers decreases risk of heart disease GUIDELINES FOR A HIGH FIBRE DIET 1. Eat a sensible diet containing a variety of foods, so that you obtain all the nutrients needed for good health. 2. Obtain your fibre intake from a variety of sources so that you get both soluble and insoluble fibre. 3. Drink plenty of fluids. Unless you on a fluid restricting eating plan, aim for at least 1500 to 2000 mL (6-8 cups) of fluid every day. 4. Increase the fibre in your diet gradually to minimize any stomach upset e.g. gas/bloating. » Choose whole-grain products (breads, cereals etc, rather than refined (white) products. » Bran (100%) may be added to muffin, loaf, cookie or pancakes batters etc. before baking. May also be added to casseroles, stews or cooked with hot cereals. » Use beans, peas, and lentils in soups, salads and casseroles. » Consume at least 5 servings of fruits and vegetables daily. Eat the skins that are edible. Substitute whole fruit for fruit juices. » Add dried fruits to cereal and baked products. » When baking, substitute whole-wheat flour for at least half the white flour. 5. Read nutrition labels when shopping. Choose foods with at least two grams (2 grams) of dietary fibre per serving.

COACH Heart Manual Salt/Sodium Average daily Recommended ideal sodium daily limit: consumption: 1,500 -2300 mg per 3,400 mg per day day* (approx. 1/2 tsp salt 1,200 mg) *Healthy Families BC (1500mg recommendation) and Canada Food Guide (2300mg recommended). Studies suggest that limiting salt intake can lower blood pressure. For Most People… 75% of Salt Intake Comes from Processed Foods …another reason to move to an unprocessed, whole-food diet! Salt… also known as… • Baking powder • Brine • Kelp • Baking soda • Soy sauce • MSG (monosodium glutamate) • Anything with 'sodium' i.e. sodium benzoate Note: Sea Salt is just as high in Sodium as table salt!

    THE BASTARD OF ISTANBUL Elif Shafak Copyright: 2007 Book Jacket: Twenty years later, Asya Kazanci lives with her extended family in Istanbul. Due to a mysterious family curse, all the Kazanci men die in their early forties, so it is a house of women, among them Asya’s beautiful, rebellious mother Zeliha, who runs a tattoo parlour; Banu, who has newly discovered herself as a clairvoyant; and Feride, a hypochondriac obsessed with impending disatstr. And when Asya’s Armenian-American cousin Armanoush comes to stay, long-hidden family secrets connected with Turkey’s turbulent past begin to emerge. Elif Shafak is one of Turkey’s most acclaimed and outspoken novelists. She was born in 1971 and is the author of six novels, most recently The Saint of Incipient Insanities, The Gaze and The Flea Palace, and one work of non-fiction. She teaches at the University of Arizona and divides her time between the US and Istanbul. TO EYUP and I)EHRAZAT ZELDA Once there was; once there wasn’t. God’s creatures were as plentiful as grains And talking too much was a sin…. -The preamble to a Turkish tale … and to an Armenian one ONE Cinnamon W hatever falls from the sky above, thou shall not curse it. That includes the rain. No matter what might pour down, no matter how heavy the cloudburst or how icy the sleet, you should never ever utter profanities against whatever the heavens might have in store for us. Everybody knows this. And that includes Zeliha. Yet, there she was on this first Friday ofJuly, walking on a sidewalk that flowed next to hopelessly clogged traffic; rushing to an appointment she was now late for, swearing like a trooper, hissing one profanity after another at the broken pavement stones, at her high heels, at the man stalking her, at each and every driver who honked frantically when it was an urban fact that clamor had no effect on unclogging traffic, at the whole Ottoman dynasty for once upon a time conquering the city of Constantinople, and then sticking by its mistake, and yes, at the rain … this damn summer rain.

    Spring 2012 CHEZ FRANÇOIS Restaurant Volume 25 Issue 1 555 Main Street, Vermilion, Ohio 44089 • www.Chezfrancois.com • A publication for friends and guests of Chez François. Dear Friend of Chez François, Thank you for your patronage this past year. We feel blessed to have you as our guest and we look forward to continued success this coming year. Fair, fair...what is all this talk about fairness? Few things are ever truly fair. It seems those who complain about fairness are the ones that don’t really do anything. They never learn that you have to work hard in life, yet feel entitled to many rights they never earned.When in fact, the only right they have in America is the right of Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. From early childhood we were taught that if you believe in an idea and work hard to execute and have faith in that idea, then you will be successful. It is easy to have an idea, but quite another to commit the time and effort on a daily basis. Inevitably, there will be negative influences along the way and those who will try to criticize, but diligence and persistence guide one through these times. Criticism is fine, as long as it’s constructive and one learns and improves from it, which is what we’ve done for the past 25 years...always striving for improvement in the pursuit of excellence. So if others are more successful than we are, bear in mind it is likely the result of a great deal of time and devotion towards a solid concept and often of great sacrifice too.

  • Food Safety and Informal Markets
    FOOD SAFETY AND INFORMAL MARKETS Animal products are vital components of the diets and livelihoods of people across sub-Saharan Africa. They are frequently traded in local, informal markets and this can pose significant health risks. This book presents an accessible overview of these issues in the context of food safety, zoonoses and public health, while at the same time maintaining fair and equitable livelihoods for poorer people across the continent. The book includes a review of the key issues and twenty-five case studies of the meat, milk, egg and fish food sectors drawn from a wide range of countries in East, West and southern Africa, as part of the ‘Safe Food, Fair Food’ project. It gives a realistic analysis of food safety risk by developing a methodology of ‘participatory food safety risk assessment’, involving small-scale producers and consumers in the process of data collection in the data-poor environment often found in developing countries. This approach aims to ensure market access for poor producers, while adopting a realistic and pragmatic strategy for reducing the risk of food-borne diseases for consumers. Kristina Roesel is co-ordinator of the ‘Safe Food, Fair Food’ project, based at the International Livestock Research Institute, Nairobi, Kenya, and also a doctorate candidate at the Free University, Berlin, Germany. Delia Grace is Program Leader, Food Safety and Zoonoses, Integrated Sciences, at the International Livestock Research Institute, Nairobi, Kenya.
