'Cause they aren't high calories. 100g of tangerines are 53 cals 100g of bananas are 89 cals 100g of grapes are 70 cals Most caloric fruit is the avocato that goes on 170 cals for 100g In fruts there are sugars, but they are bonded with fibers so they are highly satiating.

I suppose because there are far worse conditions. I am disappointed to have diabetes and having to struggle with diet choices that make difficult for me to enjoy to go to the restaurant with friends, or scooping an ice cream cone. But not having to inject me with insulin everyday is a nice...

Five a day was a 1990 thing and is not a widely followed advice: http://www.bbc.com/news/health-18984025 Besides Mediterraean diet or the diet before WWII was not five a day but more 25 a day.

Overconsumption of fructose is a problem, because is transformed in the liver in fats and if too much fat is produced this will cause fatty liver. I suppose that eating some fruit could be easily managed, but if one eat a lot of sucrose- or high fructose corn syrup could have a lot of problem...

I think that is the ratio of fiber and sugars in the fruit that matters. If I eat oranges, apples, pears, kiwis I haven't any problem. On the other hand figs or tangerines are a problem. I don't know about pineapple but I don't like them, and anyway canned pineapples are with added sugars.

Just a curiosity: chewing a chewing gum sweetened with Xylitol, can cause problems? I am aking this because due raised blood pressure I can't chew liquorice roots any more. So i was thinking to-get some gums to chew, especially to fight food cravings.

I know that if they're selling at a way higher price than the raw food it's also for the convenience. It's like a precut salad that costs 10x regular one, but one has the big advantage that one doesn't have to wash, cut an do on - normally I buy it for the lunch a the office. But for the dinner...

My question is, after having read the ingredients, bran is cheap, eggs are cheap, so is yeast and salt, why you can't make the dough yourself? Pizza, made with good ingredients isn't normally so cheap, if you are searching the lowest bidder of course you'll find awful toppings, but if you find...

About pears and apples, I could eat a pear (or an apple) without any problem (measured 2 hour after meal 6.2). Yes a pear, being a friut has fructose, and normally a cooked pear is made with atting and caramelizing sigars, but I have steam cooked them and then used some bitter cocoa, stevia and...

Remember that working in restaurants kitchen requires a lot of manual work and one has to use force. There are some slim cooks and they normally eat a lot, but they are walking 10 hour a day...

I think it's also an acquired taste. So a salad is considered bland. My salad are not. Even if I don't use the cheat to add some olive oil with hot pepper were soaked for a year, adding some spices will spice it up. And making a salad is easy for everyone that could use a knife. If people starts...

Because the Mediterranean diet is an idea, a distillation of the eating habits of the people living near the seaside. If you come in Turin you could ask in the winter for the Bagna Caoda, that is vegetables, olive oil and anchoves based, but it's actually not a mediterranean food. Northern...

There's a big problem here, due the imported techniques and bad information on eating here. Some national staples are carb-heavy like pizza, pasta, rice or polenta. But here fresh vegetables are cheap and supermarkets are filled with fresh food. Anyway it's true that junk food is on the rise.

Learnt the hard way to stay silent on my conditions. I have had a period in my life that I was always hungry and started to eat a lot, gained 20 kg. Nobody diagnosed me that it could be impaired glucose tolerance, even if my GP had seed the borderline bloodbank exam results. So I had a period...

Maybe because it's a new doctor wants to drill you. I think it's better one exam than another. I have keratoconus, but I was astigmatic too. I've got eyeglasses since six. Older eye doctor never found the condition and only give me different lens prescriptions. When he retired I changed eye...

Except the little fact that nobody follows the Eatweel plate or try to at least follow the guidelines or even understand them. In the USA, where obesity is skyrocketed, the calorie intake in the '90 was increased in respect of the '70s. The fat intake remained the same put refined carbohydrates...

I have found that the most precise scales are the totally mechanical one, with moving weight, the Englis therm I think is steelyard, especially if they're checked against a known weight.

Misread the subject :) :):) (but the key signature is for D minor not A minor!)

Maybe the possible side effect of metformin on colon an the polyp prevention are correlated, like it works on the walls making them different... Anyway, like aspirin, the dame medicie could have vastly different uses with vastly different mechanisms.

There alre studies that find that metformin lowers the risk of colon cancer and polyps http://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanonc/article/PIIS1470-2045(15)00565-3/abstract https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4204699/ And the mechanism seems not related to the liver dump prevention...
