500 Delicious Diabetic Recipes
My last few posts have discussed diabetes in detail so I thought today I would give you all a relevant freebie which is not quite so information intensive. Plus, my last post was 8 Ways to Manage Diabetes with a Healthy Diet so I thought that now would be the perfect time to give this freebie away. The freebie is an ebook that I put together entitled 500 Delicious Diabetic Recipes. The ebook does exactly what it says, providing readers with 500 (well 515 actually) diabetic recipes. Whatever you want to eat there should be a recipe for you here, whether it be beef, chicken, pasta, rice, … [Read more...]
8 Ways To Manage Diabetes With A Healthy Diet
This is yet another article I wrote when the Free Fitness Tips blog was just a baby. It is also another article which I have decided needs a rewrite. Partly, because I feel it could be written with a lot more detail and partly because some of the statements were just plain wrong. In particular, this one sticks out; “Specifically, diabetics need to avoid refined sugar which is found in candy, cookies, cake, chocolate and donuts. Refined sugars enter the bloodstream and release insulin, which causes your glucose levels to go sky-high. Unfortunately, if you are diabetic then these foods will … [Read more...]

3 Key Criteria For A Successful Diet Plan
There are many effective and ineffective diet plans around. As I have covered previously on this blog fad diets do not work and I believe the best way to lose weight is to exercise regularly and eat more healthily. I do not think you need to follow a pre-determined diet plan as long as you stick to relatively healthy foods most of the time. However, I understand that some people do not have the self discipline to eat healthy all the time and for these people a structured diet plan can be the answer. In this article I discuss three criteria your chosen diet plan MUST contain if you want it to … [Read more...]
Can Milk Help You Lose Weight?
Consumption of milk is a very controversial subject. On the one hand research suggests that milk is a rich source of calcium which has been linked with the reduced risk of osteoporosis (reduced bone density), diabetes, heart disease and even cancer. However, critics suggest that the above benefits are untrue and that consuming milk can also lead to diabetes and obesity. As a result of these criticisms many people who want to lose weight avoid dairy products. In this article I will discuss both sides of the argument and analyse whether milk really needs to be avoided as part of a weight loss … [Read more...]
Can Meat Help You Lose Weight?
A number of diets recommend that you should increase your intake of meats to lose weight. Certain more extreme diets, such as the Atkins diet suggest that to lose weight you should seriously reduce your intake of carbohydrates and compensate by eating more meat. In this article I will be discussing whether eating more meat really can help you lose weight. First, let's look at the reasoning behind eating more meat to lose weight. By consuming more meat and less carbohydrates you force your body into a state of ketosis where it burns fat for energy instead of the usual carbohydrates. This … [Read more...]
