How to save on your organic grocery list

Many people think that eating organic is expensive. While this was true, switching to an organic grocery list in Dubai has become much easier now. Grown in UAE organic fruits and vegetables are making organic food more accessible.

When adopting an organic diet one must consider two important health aspects: what they are “getting” and “not getting”. Simply put getting is all the goodness you are receiving and not getting is all the chemical nasties you are not putting in your body. Your health is boosted with the nutrient dense food and at the same time detoxed as no pesticides, chemicals, or processed additives are bogging down your system. Therefore it is not unfair to say that eating organic is an investment towards a healthier, fitter and happier you. So here are few ways to eat healthy organic food without breaking the bank.,

Eat seasonal produce

Fruits and vegetables in season are cheaper than eating them off season. Eating in season produce let you enjoy the best taste, quality and nutrition as intended by mother nature. It also prevents us from just eating our favorites throughout the year and ensures we get good doses of all the must have antioxidants and micronutrients.

Eat locally grown produce

Lower your carbon footprint while lowering your food bill. With locally grown produce you are saving as you are not paying for the airfreight, while encouraging more farmers to go organic. You also get a fresher product as the farm to plate can be just a few hours.

Buy on sale products

Buying products on sale that have a good shelf life can save a significant amount of money. Beans, cereals, nuts, seeds and rice fits well for on sale purchases. Even produce works well if you are good on food preserving methods. Shopping together with friends with organic grocery lists allows you to make better use of bulk and bundle promotions.

Buy bulk

Buying organic products in bulk gives you a better value per kilogram. One good way to buy bulk is to set up a small group with your friends so everyone can benefit from the lower cost per unit with quantities that you will actually consume. Buying in bulk creates less packaging waste and helps the environment.

Cook and store

Homemade sauces and jams are a great way to make use of fresh produce that are in season and/or on special offers. Homemade ketchup, pasta sauces and berry jams taste better and you are able to control all the ingredients that goes into them. They also make great gifts instead of store made products.

Living healthy starts with eating healthy and eating healthy starts with shopping healthy. Eating organic is not just about the health and wellbeing of an individual. Our health and the health of the planet are interdependent and it is our collective responsibility to improve and sustain it. By slowly converting your conventional grocery list to an organic grocery list, you will help mother nature detox herself so ourselves and generations to come will have a better environment.

Eat Like This and Live Longer

Everyone can eat what they like. Though we have the choice to eat whatever we like, we must eat what is best for us and that may not be what you like. By best for us means foods that make us healthier, fitter, gives us more energy and prevents diseases. It is eating to live and not living to eat. The best way to do this is to embrace plant-based nutrition. In a plant-based diet, everything we need for the proper functioning and preservation is obtained from a great variety of fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts, beans, legumes, and seeds.

Let us think for a moment, how many people are getting cancers, heart attacks, strokes from consuming fruits, vegetables, and nuts? How many are told to reduce or avoid animal meats to lower the risk or prevent cancers, heart attacks, and strokes? Has anyone ever heard of someone getting a brain tumor because they eat broccoli? Ever heard of someone developing the cardiovascular disease by eating carrots?

The reason for this is plant-based nutrition is rich in protein, high in fiber, iron, calcium and packed with minerals and loaded with antioxidants, which not just gives you energy but it helps in fighting off and healing of diseases. Consuming organic fruits, vegetables, grains, nuts, and seeds are the best way to ensure that you are getting the maximum goodness of a plant-powered nutrition.

Embracing a plant-based diet has shown to prevent and in some cases reverse diseases which include

Cardiovascular disease: Eating plenty of nuts and whole grains, eliminates all dietary cholesterol and drastically improves your heart and brain health.

High blood pressure: A diet rich in whole grains is beneficial to your health in many ways, including lowering high blood pressure.

Type 2 diabetes: A plant-based diet is not just a way to control Type 2 diabetes, in some instances individuals have even reversed their condition.

Prostate cancer: Research is increasingly showing cancer or may have even reversed the illness.

Colon cancer: Consumption of animal meat is seen as a major cause of colon cancer. Eating a diet rich in fiber with whole grains, along with fresh fruits and vegetables minimizes the risk.

Breast cancer: Research shows that in countries where women eat very little no animal meat have much lower rates of breast cancer than in countries where it is consumption is high.

Eye health: Cataracts and age-related macular degeneration can be prevented through diets with plenty of fresh fruits, leafy greens, carrots, pumpkin, and sweet potatoes.

A killer is hiding in your food

It’s a normal day at your local supermarket. You are going through the aisles in and are picking up your weekly food supplies. You are adding them to your cart, as usual, unaware that there is a killer in your food. Unfortunately, there are many killers in your food, but this one is probably the deadliest of them all. It has great love and support from profit-hungry food manufacturers. With the help of corrupt lobbyists, it has been entering your foods under different names to confuse you. It has launched powerful global campaigns and PR stunts to misguide you.  

It has no mercy and poisons you from infant formulas to adult nutritional supplements to everything in between! It is a darling of the food industry. They say it enhances flavor, preserves food and retains moisture. Above all, despite massive evidence of its detrimental effects, they insist it is safe! So what is this deadly killer lurking in your food?

Its name is High Fructose Corn Syrup. Food industry’s affectionate abbreviation for it is HFCS. Born in a lab in 1957, it was nurtured till it entered the cheap, nutritionally void foods in 1970. Since then, it has spread to pretty much everything you eat, even the once you think as healthy and natural. Due to increasing consumer awareness and avoidance, food manufacturers are listing HFCS under different names. They use the names inulin, glucose-fructose syrup, isoglucose, glucose syrup, and corn sugar and crystalline fructose, simply to deceive the consumers.

HFCS is produced through extensive processing of genetically modified corn starch till it becomes glucose. The glucose is then processed with caustic soda, hydrochloric acid and carbon to make fructose syrup. So how does it kill? For starters, your body does not know how to deal with HFCS. It goes straight to your liver, which converts it to fat. This causes severe stress on the liver resulting in liver disease and metabolic disturbances. Ultimately it kills you with heart disease, diabetes, dementia, cancer, kidney disease and liver disease.

So how do you avoid this killer syrup? The only way is to read every single food label and scan the ingredients. Though it is mostly in processed foods, it is now found in almost every kind of food. It could be hiding anywhere, regardless of what the consumer-facing package claims are.  Even the most seemingly innocent products could be hiding this killer. Some of the foods where it is commonly hidden are breakfast cereals, granola bars, sodas, yogurt, ice cream, cake mixes, jams, chocolate bars, fruit drinks, bread, snacks, soups, salad dressings, ketchup, and sauces.

Take the time to read the labels. It is far less painful than reading instructions for prescription medicines and hospital bills later on. It is time well spent to educate yourself and your loved ones because you are what you eat. Yes, the greedy food industry will find ways to adulterate food, but as long as consumers are aware and reject the inferior products, they will have to come clean or quit.

The bitter truth about chocolate hazelnut spreads

There are many ways to enjoy chocolate and everyone loves chocolate in some form or another. Many say they can’t live without it and some even say they will skip sex for chocolate. The gooey, silky and creamy chocolate hazelnut spreads are one of the most loved, addictive and decadent ways to eat it. Dollops on bread, spoonfuls on pancakes or simply finger dipping and licking, have become a global norm.

But what is really in them? No matter what it looks like on the label, when you read the ingredients, you find that the actual amount of cocoa and hazelnuts are disappointing and what is most present is sad and shocking.

While everyone may eat a certain product for whatever the reason they like it is important to know what you are eating, no matter why you like it. When you read the list of ingredients on the most popular breakfast spread, they tella a different story. Basically are you eating a cocoa and hazelnut spread as you think or are you eating a sugar and palm oil spread? In 100 grams, if 55% is sugar,

23% is palm oil, while hazelnuts are only 13% with just 7.4 % cocoa, can you even call it a hazelnut spread with cocoa? Many other brands in the market that claim to be chocolate hazelnut spreads are also sugary and oily pastes.

Dubai being a foodie paradise, you will find a few brands at your supermarket. If the ingredient list is conveniently covered by the Arabic paste on label, scratch it off and read what is hidden. Don’t be afraid to read the labels, be afraid to eat it, without reading them.

Now that you know what you are really spreading on your toast, you can make a change for the better. Of course you can still simply say “oh well, it tastes great” and clog your arteries. But if you value your health, while pleasing your tongue then try Teo&Bia crema alla nocciola (it means hazelnut cream). It has just 3 ingredients. 47% organic hazelnuts, organic cocoa and organic cane sugar and absolutely nothing else!

Actually order 2, because just one jar between you and your partner will cause a problem.
