"Normally, when you eat a high-fat meal, you end up with high levels of triglycerides, a type of fat, in your blood," explained Sheila West, associate professor of bio-behavioural health, who led the study, published in the Journal of Nutrition. "If this happens too frequently, or if triglyceride levels are raised too much, your risk of heart disease is increased. We found that adding spices to a high-fat meal reduced triglyceride response by about 30 per cent, compared to a similar meal with no spices added," she told Science Daily. West's team examined the effects of spices on 6 men aged between 30 and 65, all of whom were overweight but otherwise healthy. Meals consisting of chicken curry, Italian herb bread and a cinnamon biscuit were prepared for the subjects on two separate days. Two tablespoons of spices were added to each serving. Over the 3 hours which followed, blood was drawn from the participants every 30 minutes. Spice of life ... flavourings such as turmeric and cinnamon may help protect against heart disease. Photo: Steven Siewert "In the spiced meal, we used rosemary, oregano, cinnamon, turmeric, black pepper, cloves, garlic powder and paprika," said Ann Skulas-Ray, postdoctoral fellow. "We selected these spices because they had potent antioxidant activity previously under controlled conditions in the lab." The antioxidant dose, West estimated, was roughly equivalent to 148ml of red wine or 40g of dark chocolate. Among subjects who consumed the spiced meal, antioxidant activity in the blood increased by 13 per cent and insuline response decreased by roughly 20 per cent. "Antioxidants, like spices, may be important in reducing oxidative stress and thus reducing the risk of chronic disease," said West, who added that many scientists think that oxidative stress contributes to heart disease, arthritis and diabetes. Skulas-Ray noted that the spices had no effect on the patients' enjoyment of their meals. "They enjoyed the food and had no gastrointestinal problems," she said. But West intends to study whether similar effects can be achieved with smaller quantities of spices.

Salt A healthy, active lifestyle demands a sufficient reasonable salt intake. Salt is a vital substance that contain minerals for the survival of all living creatures, particularly humans. Water and salt regulate the water levels of the body. Water itself regulates the aquatic content of the interior of the cell by working its way into all of the cells it reaches. It has to get there to cleanse and extract the toxic wastes of cell metabolisms. Salt forces some water to stay outside the cells. It balances the amount of water that stays outside the cells. Good health depends on a most delicate balance between the ratio of water inside and outside the cells, and this balance is achieved by salt - unrefined salt. Sugar The main function of sugars (and all carbohydrates) in the body is to provide energy for good health, growth, and proper body function and activity, and also provide important vitamins, minerals, protein, and fibre.
