Summer is here, and many of us will be feeling lively, energised and happy as the sun helps us to increase Vitamin D production. However this isn’t true of everyone, and recent research indicates that in some women, a lack of energy may be down to not enough Magnesium and B Vitamins in the diet, both nutrients that are vital for regenerating the cells ‘batteries’, called the mitochondria.

Research of the effects of a low and high Magnesium diet on energy levels in postmenopausal women found that when Magnesium intake was low, the women tired more easily, and that exercise increased heart rate and the body’s need for oxygen to a greater extent than women on a high Mg diet. They also needed more energy to make muscles function properly.

Magnesium is naturally present in green leafy vegetables, avocados, nuts and seeds and whole grains, but usually only in small amounts. Unfortunately, the body isn’t terribly good at absorbing Magnesium so plenty of these foods need to be eaten regularly. (more…)

Facts of Fig (Ficus carica)

vanhal — Fri, 30 Mar 2007 13:48:03 +0000

The fig is believed to be indigenous to western Asia and to have been distributed by man throughout the Mediterranean area. Remnants of figs have been found in excavations of sites traced to at least 5,000 B.C.
Fig fruits are bell-shaped, with a wide, flat bottom narrowing to a pointed top. When the fruit ripens, the top may bend, forming a “neck.” Figs can be brown, purple, green, yellow or black, and vary in size. The skin is slightly wrinkled and leathery. They are often dried for preservation, since the fresh fruits are highly perishable. The fig flowers develop inside the fruit and cannot be seen.
The Egyptians, being preoccupied with their digestion, had a habit of fasting. The fig, having mild laxative properties, appealed to them as food which was delicious as well as good for them. Figs are rich in calcium, iron, phosphorus and potassium. Vitamin C and the B group vitamins are also present in small quantities. They are also high in fibre. Figs have the highest overall mineral content of all common fruits. A 40 gram (1/4 cup) serving provides 244 mg of potassium (7% of the DV), 53 mg of calcium (6% of the DV) and 1.2 mg of iron (6% of the DV). Figs are fat-free, sodium-free and cholesterol-free.
