Which of the following do you think is the least healthy to eat as a snack?
  • A slab of dark chocolate, perhaps with nuts in it.
  • A slice of toast with jam on it.
  • Three low GI rusks.

I read about honey on the internet. From what I saw it appears that honey is not particularly healthy, nor particularly unhealthy. It's just another condiment.

The Wikipedia article on protein states that sedentary adults should consume about 0.8 g of protein per kilogram of body weight, and that this goes up to about double that for athletes.

If you reduce your sugar intake, will you have more energy and feel less depressed?
 
I would not eat any of those, bowl of oats with honey FTW.

It's my breakfast and lunch, coupled with some fruit and salad in between. Then i eat what i like for dinner in moderation of course.
 
Those are all pretty bad. Well the dark chocolate is good but you should only eat like 30g. The slice of jam on toast should only be eaten if you are exercising for like 90min.

I want to cut down on my sugar intake but I'm scared my blood pressure might go up if I do that.
 
Honey and cinnamon. Google the benefits of this food.

Whatever you put in your mouth, make sure it has the minimum possible combo of salt and refined sugar
 
Was listening to some chick on 702 said reason why so many people have high BP is due to the fact that just about everyone adds salt to their products.
Salt is very bad if you have high bp

Well my sister and mother eat salt with food if you get my meaning and they are fine. Mostly people have high BP because they eat too much processed crap which is full of sodium so it does make sense having a poor diet will lead to health complications but everyone is different. Sodium is not good but worse than sodium is processed food which so many people eat. Nutrition is something most people do not get in their diet anymore. Americans and English people are good examples of how processed food can make a nation fat.

Fresh produce and cooking your own food should sort out the issue but everyone is different so who knows :D but if you eat well i cannot see many health problems cropping up.

Salt raises your blood pressure, so if you have low blood pressure to start with it won't be as bad eating salt as someone who has high blood pressure...
