Diet-Friendly Foods

by: fitnessmagazine The secret to shedding pounds isn't saying no to guilty pleasures, it's learning how to say yes without causing diet damage. "Cheating should be planned and deliberate," says Ann Kulze, MD, author of Dr. Ann's 10-Step Diet: A Simple Plan for Permanent Weight Loss and Lifelong Vitality (Top Ten Wellness and Fitness, 2004). "Avoiding favorite foods can lead to bingeing, followed by regret and abandonment of all your efforts." Allowing yourself the occasional splurge helps you truly enjoy the treat -- and that makes it easier to take a pass on little extras the rest of the time.

D escription The powerful antioxidant methylpyridinium is found almost exclusively in coffee. It boosts the blood enzyme believed to protect against cancer. Coffee prevents diabetes. Mount Apo Civet coffee is from naturally grown chemical free Arabica beans from the rich volcanic soil of Mt. Apo in altitudes of 1500 meters and above. A civet eats the berries for their fleshy pulp. In its stomach, proteolytic enzymes seeps into the beans, making shorter peptides and more free amino acids. These beans yield an aromatic coffee with much less bitterness. The mix of variety, soil, elevation...
