However, these days we keep seeing in the news and read in newspapers about our society to be very obese. Having a candy bar at your wedding do not do anything. If you want to do something a little different, and healthier, why not try a bar of healthy food instead?

Imagine: glass canisters of various sizes on the bases at different altitudes. Each is filled with different sound element, such as several different types of muesli, some trail mix, maybe some dried fruit, and some various nuts. Then label each jar with a decorative tag that visitors know what is in them. (Be sure to note if there are nuts in any of the items, how many people are allergic to nuts.)

Another option you could do something that you could have the guests make their own mixture of Trail, putting the individual ingredients in each bank. One bank may be peanuts, one with raisins, one with M & Ms, one with dried fruit, and one with sunflower seeds. As favors for the guests you could give each guest a glass jar favor.

Knowledge about Enriched Foods

Posted under Articles by baryant

Do you know about  a real goldmine for the food industry. When you see the word "enriched" on the label, it makes you think of it as a healthy, healthy and nutritious. That is exactly what the food industry would like you to think, but actually it is just the opposite.

Let's use wheat as an example. Nature kernel of wheat consists of three parts: the bran, germ and endosperm. Bran tough outer shell of the nucleus. It contains plenty of fiber and certain vitamins and minerals.

Germ portion of which a new plant will grow. This is the most nutritious of the three because it contains many natural vitamins, minerals and essential fatty acids. Finally, the white part of the endosperm, which contains mostly starch, plus a small amount of vitamins and minerals.

People are made of flour from whole grain kernels since biblical times. Flour, dark, rough and grainy. Bread from this flour is hard to chew and does not look as good as a fluffy white bread. Of course, it's much healthier than all of the fibers and nutrients. This kind of bread we were meant to eat.

But we have been taught, like white bread, made entirely of endosperm. In the end, it looks and feels much better, and it almost melts in your mouth. But what about nutrition? Nutritionally speaking, it is next to nothing. After the bran and germ are removed (which, incidentally, can be purchased separately at a much higher cost) more than 30 vitamins, minerals and essential oils, partially or completely lost.

You lose almost all of the vitamins B1 and B6, about 80 percent potassium, iron and magnesium, more than 50 percent of other B vitamins, 50 percent linoleic acid (fatty acids), more than 25 percent of high quality protein and significant amounts of zinc, boron, manganese, iodine, sulfur, phosphorus, folic acid, vitamin E and choline.

To make it look white flour is processed chemical called benzoyl peroxide. The name may be familiar, because it is the main ingredient in acne creams.

Bleached white flour so nutritionally poor, that around World War II the U.S. government got involved and forced millers to fortify it with some synthetic vitamins. Since 1941, white flour is "enriched" with synthetic vitamins B1, B2, B3 and iron. In 1998, the synthetic folic acid was added as well.

Thus, about 30 natural nutrients have been removed and 5 synthetic chemicals have been added. If the robber took all the money, jewelry, watches and all other values, and then gave you $ 1.00 for bus fare, would you feel enriched?

So if you see the word "enriched" on the label, know that it is nutritionally inferior product that will make you put on more weight and increases the risk of heart disease and stroke.
