Q- For years we have heard about good LDL and bad LDL. Is it true that there are good carbohydrates and bad carbohydrates? A- To kind of boil it down into a nutshell, if you look at it everybody is trying to answer that question and again you can draw a correlation between what people are eating and who is doing the study. One thing that is obvious is that diabetes is on the rise and it probably has something to do with digesting simple sugars. It’s fair to say the jury is out on what is causing the rise in diabetes. We keep coming back to practicality and just balance. You can still use sugar on cereal and eat chocolate chip cookies. If you want to add butter to your toast fine but a little bit goes a long way. There is this kind of an attitude that if a little is good more is better. Q- What are phytochemicals? A- Phytochemicals are chemicals that occur in growing plants. It’s just another catchy term.
It is more about food antioxidants and the role they play in metabolism and cholesterol and heart disease. It is a term that popped up about 10 years ago like functional foods.
Basically phytochemicals are those chemicals that usually act as an antioxidant in metabolism.
There is so much talk about free radicals and oxidation of fat and metabolism you know when fat gets metabolized.
Those chemicals will basically act to reduce free radicals. Therefore they are supposed to be effective in reducing cardiovascular disease. You have to keep an open mind about nutrition because it is constantly changing.
You have to be current because it is a rapidly changing field.
