Nutritional value quinoa

Common Questions and Answers about Nutritional value quinoa

nutrition

Avatar f tn I was wondering at what to put the nutritional value of food over the amount of calories they contain. For example, I regulate my calories fairly closely and usually am always well under the daily recommended amount, but there are some days that I feel like I am hungry all day. As a general rule, I enjoy eating raw mixed nuts as a snack, but they tend to be high in calories.
Avatar n tn Juice covers a lot -- virtually anything can be juiced if you're doing this yourself. Fruit juices contain a lot of sugar, but can also be powerful antioxidants, but vegetable juices can be very valuable. Wheatgrass juice is great. So this depends on what you mean by nutritional juices. Most important, avoid anything that's not organic. When you juice anything, you use a lot of it, and that enhances the amount of harmful chemicals that exist on whatever you're juicing.
1581788 tn?1340229715 You know what I love quinoa and I need to make some because I recently bought some more of it because it is a pure protein. I cook mine in vegetable stock. I love the red quinoa best. I saute onions and garlic and then I add it to the mix. I use some parmesan cheese added in there to and nutritional yeast. Now you are so making me hungry!! Today I am craving salmon patties.
8793709 tn?1409594060 I do the same as you, except that when hubby gets home I turn the stove back on to reheat it instead of microwave. I believe that even if it loses a little bit of the nutritional value, it's still healthier and cheaper than ordering or eating out.
325405 tn?1262290178 I think if you freeze it, you would take away from the nutritional value. You could get the same nutritional value from eating bean sprouts on a salad. Would be easier for you.
1417802 tn?1282173063 Sorry to hear about your treatment not being effective.are you going to be treating again with the new DAA"s that are going to be coming out soon? There are many elixir"s and supplements people are taking for nutritional value and some it seems have value in regards to keeping liver counts (enzyme )readings lower. If the Hepa feels their is no harm ,and markers don"t rise..then yes nothing to lose Keep us informed and good luck.. Will.
Avatar f tn Other grains to look for are quinoa (there are three colors of quinoa available), amaranth, buckwheat (not related to wheat at all) and hulled millet. Yes, millet is what birds eat, but the hulled millet found in the bulk foods department is meant for human consumption. If you can find a clean source that isn't too dusty, millet is good, too. I have found quinoa (pronounced keen-wah) to be very clean, plus it is higher in protein than the other grains. And, it's not from a grass.
Avatar m tn I am curious if I am still getting the same nutritional value from the uncooked oats as if I were cooking them?

Avatar f tn t tell people this, but as a nutritional therapist I recommend people supplement with bile salts (can find it sometimes called ox bile). Take it with meals and this will help digest fats. You can sometimes find supplements that have ox bile and lipase which is the enzyme that further breaks down fat. Be sure to ask your doctor if it's safe during pregnancy. If so it should give you immediate relief. Hope this helps!
Avatar f tn Generally, you should try to eat things that have varied nutritional value and things considered 'healthy' but some cheesecake here and there doesn't hurt.
1544053 tn?1328691992 My dog likes apples. I give her about a 1/4 apple, cut into tiny pieces as treats. At apple time, she often picks her own from the low branches of the trees in the orchard! So I make sure she doesn't get any apple seeds too because they are toxic. Grapes are definitely toxic for dogs. NO grapes! Raisins are the same, ditto sultanas, currants, etc. I've heard of dogs who like bananas, but mine doesn't. Corn....
Avatar f tn You can eat them but you have to eat some thing else with them because they have NO nutritional value for you or baby.
Avatar m tn I hate to be like this but most of the items (if not all) the items listed consist of total unhealthy junk food with zero nutritional value. It is clear the person put a lot of time and research into the list but I am just saying.
Avatar n tn Beer has some nutritional value also.
7489014 tn?1429908568 Spicy is good but Cheetos are kind of like processed junk food. :>) I would try to limit that and go for more healthy options or something with more nutritional value for you and baby. Doesn't mean you can't have some spicy hot Cheetos from time to time though.
Avatar f tn Thanks. .
Avatar f tn My doctor told me that you don't really have to worry about nutritional value at this point. I had a sweet tooth until 9 weeks.
Avatar m tn You can add a sweetener to it or just add the quinoa to salads, soups, regular rice, and yogurt, etc to have the benefit of quinoa plus it will not be bland. Quinoa is a 'grain' consisting of 8 essential amino acids (protein) which is the same as milk, plus it is gluten free (wheat -free). It is a great protein source for people who do not eat meat and it can be eaten in different methods as I stated above.
Avatar f tn Try to stay away from junk food with low nutritional value BC you need the nutrition.
Avatar f tn Canned tuna has less mercury than other fish like swordfish. Nonetheless, that's not nutritional. But I could be wrong. I'm just going based on what my doc said.
Avatar f tn The fresher the fruits and vegetables, the better nutritional value. If your mother is concerned, suggest going to your MD and getting your blood tested. It will indicate if any nutrient, vitamin or mineral is deficient or not. Thank you for your question.
