Curry
Indian food is sometimes portrayed as unhealthy. Science is beginning to realise the many health values of the main ingredients of curiy such that a good curry, well produced could well be called ‘health on a plate’.
ChiUi - Main ingredient is capsiacin and is known as a powerful pain killer and antioxidant helping to combat heart attack and stroke and even extends blood coagulation time. Capsiacin has an affinity for fat so it may well be helpful for weight control.
Coriander – Another antioxidant, countering blood pressure and the formation of free radicals which trigger cancers.
Cumin – Antioxidant once again having a beneficial effect on blood pressure and heart rhythm.
Ginger – High in Vitamin C and a powerful antioxidant and anticarcinogenic. Also helps eliminate toxins from the body.
Fenugreek – Higher in folic acid (very important for pregnant women) by weight than dried yeast or liver. Fenugreek has been claimed to be an aphrodisiac and a cure for impotence.
Garlic – Known to de-clog veins and arteries since pre-history. Antibiotic, anti-fungal, bactericidal, lowers cholesterol and helps prevent heart attacks and strokes.
Onions - Helps prevent stomach cancers – ingredient quercetin deactivates carcinogens and tumours and reduces high blood sugar levels and promotes ‘good’ cholesterol.
Tomatoes – Decrease the risk of prostate cancer – the ingredient lycopene is a powerful antioxidant.
