Hoekom koolhidrate verminder? Jou liggaam gebruik koolhidrate as brandstof deur die vervaardiging van gewone suiker deur stysels en suikers af te breek. Dié gewone suikers is bekend as glukose en word deur die bloedstroom opgeneem. Met behulp van insulien dring glukose die liggaamselle binne. Glukose word ingespan as ‘n bron van energie en dit wat oorbly word in die lewer, spiere en ander liggaamselle opgegaar of dit word in vet omgeskakel. Insulien kan die afbreek van vet keer deur suiker as energie te gebruik. Deur die hoeveelheid koolhidrate te beperk word jou insulienvlakke verlaag. Die laer vlakke van insulien laat toe dat meer vet in energie omgeskakel word, wat lei tot vinnige gewigsvermindering en ‘n daling in risikofaktore vir verskeie gesondheidstoestande.
peaches and syrup into a fireproof pan. Position the pan over flames or coals. Stand the pan evenly so the ingredients don’t spill. Bring to the boil and let it simmer until the sauce starts to thicken. Now pour a generous dash of brandy into the pan and tip the pan towards the flames, setting the contents alight. As soon as the flames have died down, the dessert is ready to serve with ice cream, cream or custard. Tips • If you’re using more than one tin of peaches, don’t add the syrup from all the tins to the pan. If there is too much liquid it will take a very long time to reduce and thicken. • When served with longlife custard or evaporated milk, this is a perfect recipe for a camping trip in the bush or on a deserted beach.
