Named the most caloric food in the world

Menu different countries varied and at the same time unique. But what if such a wealth of dishes all of this affects health? Nutritionists have determined what kind of world cuisine is the most nourishing and nutritious, and therefore the most unsafe for slimming the figure. Research of British scientists have discovered that the largest number of calories is serving traditional Indian cuisine. 
A common, unified Indian cuisine for the whole country does not exist. Climatic conditions, religious canons and several religions in India, have a tangible impact on cooking peoples of the country. Most of the population, are strict vegetarians, some of them are absolutely not eat even eggs and fish, and eat only vegetables. Food is a very simple rice porridge cereals, dairy products, vegetables, and fruits, which grow in abundance in India. But is there mainly coconut or ghee, which by itself greatly adds calorie food. 
Living in India in large quantities are used in cooking ghee. Relation to oil produced from the milk of buffaloes, very anxious, it is considered a sacred product, as well as other products made from cow's milk. In addition, residents of India's confident that the use of ghee in large volumes of interpretation of the wealth of man. That is why the ideal of feminine beauty in India and a symbol of prosperity for the majority of Indian women is associated with fatness. 
The basis of traditional Indian cuisine are cereals. Rice is mainly consumed in the south and wheat in the form of roti in the north. They are often consumed with dalom or vegetables. Sometimes it is added to fish or meat. Besides the main dishes in Indian cuisine diversity knows no limits and differs only by the location of the region and experienced cooks. 
Rice - the basis of many Indian dishes. There is a huge amount of grain of different varieties. Indian everyday cooking in India is replete with carbohydrates and spices. Protein is also presented, mainly in vegetable form. Legumes and vegetables, along with cereal are essential parts. Almost all the dishes in India are prepared using ghee, as mentioned earlier. 
This is related not only to meat dishes, but also to the bread. The researchers found that the Indian bread - Naan much more caloric than even the famous Indian curry, a dish made from chicken and rice with spices. Basis Naan is a flat cake of unleavened wheat dough. In the form of fillings can apply a variety of ingredients in the form of minced meat, vegetables, cheese and much more. Of the spices used cumin, kevra, raisins. 
Thus, we see that the traditional Indian meal contains more fat several times more than is desirable to use the women, followed for her figure for the entire daily ration. 
The main reason calorie dishes of Indian cuisine in the fact that when cooking in large quantities is used as a simple vegetable, and melted butter. Therefore, preference for traditional Indian cuisine, may affect not only your figure overweight, but also cause diseases such as cardiovascular or diabetes.

Periodic cleaning of organism

The term "Cleaning diet" is applicable to various systems of feeding and cleaning - from two days of unloading in the juices and vegetables, to radical measures, including washing enema and large intestine. Advocates for cleaning diets say that the periodic cleaning helps them to release the body of toxins and toxins (arising, as they think of unhealthy foods), which accumulate in body fat depots. It is believed that slag cause headaches, fatigue and increased risk of chronic diseases such as cancer. 

Post or restriction diet for about a week does not lead to any problems, "- said David Grotto, a physician-nutritionist, a representative of the American Dietetic Association - and many people say they feel better after that." However, Grotto said, there is no scientific evidence of positive effects attributed to treatment diets. 

Arguments in favor: "Many cleaning diets involve dominance in the diet of fruits and vegetables that contain large amounts of water and fiber, and contribute to the normalization of the bowel. This improves the well-being of the people" - says Grotto. At the time away from caffeine, alcohol and refined sugars (as prescribed diet), people can not only improve their health, but also understand how much food they consume harmful, says Dawn Jackson Blather, a physician-nutritionist Northwestern Memorial Hospital Wellness Institute in Chicago . Thus, dietary treatment can inspire, and long-term changes in lifestyle. 

Arguments against: Washing large intestine made improperly can seriously injure colon, so it's best to avoid them, says Grotto. Even "safe" diet designed to use only certain foods, can cause fatigue or dizziness, if they do not provide the desired calorie diet. If severe caloric restriction lasts longer than several days, the body can feel the threat of hunger and begin to produce stress hormones that cause fat depot quickly release energy. Ironically, this increases the amount of toxins circulating in the body. "When the fat is digested too quickly, the number of toxins may exceed the amount with which the organism is able to cope well," - says Peter Pressman, MD, a specialist in internal medicine from the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. Finally, the sense of tidal energy, reported by people who have diet treatment can also be the result of the release of stress hormones. This is a consequence of evolution: the reaction of "Bay or flee", arising in response to stress, forcing the hungry animals to seek food more insistent. The resulting adrenaline recovery forces for a short while with long-term restriction of food the body starts to seriously slow down the metabolism to save energy. 

Summary: If you - a healthy person, a few days for handling vegetables, and water probably will not cause you harm, but would not be particularly useful. "People living on a" live from the heart today, and tomorrow to clean the body, diarchal itself, "- says Grotto. Natural cleansing your body's systems work best when you manage a healthy lifestyle: eat nutrient-rich foods, drink enough liquids and poured, and regularly give ourselves a physical load. 

What we eat ?

Why do we eat? ... And really, why? Different people are suited to this issue is not the same? There is obvious glutton. They learned how to get great pleasure from eating, often replacing other human joy 

Excitement is brought to the fore, the physical health and spirituality they do not go. “And if there are similar thoughts, aromas from the table are usually forced to leave any attempt to resist. 

The opposite type - ascetic. This is a giant with an iron will curb their feelings in different ways. Ascetic eaten only by necessity. Another category is perhaps the largest - is «normal» people who live in mother's milk to absorb the type of installations «of meat - the power», «eat breakfast myself ...», etc. They are programmed from childhood, and even thought about changing his food (read - of his life), and the more radical change, they did not arise. There is, finally, and those whose motto is: «There are, to live, not live to eat». These people are wise to follow the voice of Nature, is pleased to eat her gifts, if necessary, hungry, without making a nutrition problem. 

But one way or another, have accounted for all or almost all. Returning to the title of this chapter, let us see what is it that makes the food and how it affects people. 

Building material 

Yes, part of nutrients we use as building material. After all, our bodies, such seemingly intact, continuously updated. Some cells die, they replaced the new. The speed of recovery depends on the type of cells and the overall intensity of metabolic processes. You play the role and heredity, and lifestyle and the environment, and even the nature of human thought. 

On average, our body is almost completely updated for 4-5 years. And muscles, and skin and bones - all, except for the nerve cells. Some tissue faster (blood, for example, 3-4 months), others more slowly. I remember a woman who could not believe that every five years, there is no next to nothing of what had been before. But this is not fiction, this is the reality. These facts are now studying in schools on the lessons of biology. 

All cells live, divide and die. Dead cells recycling. This provides some energy and some materials (especially proteins) for new cells. A limited number of proteins synthesized from the intestinal micro flora compounds. In special circumstances (for starvation, for example, or during a special breathing exercises), proteins can be formed, and in normal cells from carbon dioxide, water and nitrogen. But all the same in basic construction material comes from food. 

Of course, apart from plastic materials, are supplied and "support" the connection to ensure that the course of many reactions that affect the immune system and other functions. A more detailed discussion of this is yet to come. 


Energy 

For the vast majority of food served and the main source of energy. Organic matter products, oxides, release its hidden power - chemical energy. Through it, we support the body temperature, moving, synthesizing the necessary substance, in a word, alive. But the energy in the compounds appeared not to digest itself. Plants received it from the sun - remember the famous response of photosynthesis, when the inorganic substances produced proteins, fats and carbohydrates. Animals "ramp-up meat eating plants or other animals. Thus, all our food is sunny, and we, the people, the sun in nature. At the beginning of this section states that for most people, the food - the main source of energy. 

There are, however, people almost without food or without food. For example, some yoga. There are Christian saints who lived without a food (St. Catherine Siena, Blessed Elizabeth, ST. Flue sky Nicholas (Brooder Klaus), etc.) The most famous, perhaps, Theresa Newman, do not take food and water for 39 years.

After all, there are many kinds of energies, has not yet been studied in science. And as a denial of the fact that the Earth revolves around the Sun, could not prevent the movement of this space, as well as ignorance of subtle energy does not cancel their actions. And yoga claim that our physically manifested only a small portion of the existing forces in the world.
