:))... this is not just tomatoes & tamarind thread... U've a lot more info in it... read thru when u find time...:)
Ufh ho! why did I put it that way Dev. Sorry my friend. The recent discussions are cornering in and around tamarind and tomatoes. Perhaps that is the reason why I quoted like that. No issues. There are loads of things to discuss within this thread.Quote:

No need to feel so sorry abt it VKN... I just wanted to point it out to U in case U overlooked it...:)
Organic stuffs in India... Used to get quite a good number of organic stuffs in a few shops in B'lore... but am not sure as to how organic it is... But when in my hometown, had the luxury to grow veggies ourselves or buy it from our neighbours/ relatives who have excess of it... Most don't use chemicals as it was grown purely for their personal use...Personally, I feel the veggies I get here don't have much flavour & taste compared to those we used to get in our village...
Hi dev
I would like to have more insight abt the fact That "Recent research shows that dairy foods May help u burn more fat and lose weight than cutting calories alone "
I thought u might be knowing better abt this . Can u pls elaborate abt this if u find time .

Pr,
Generally, food stuffs rich in protein & fiber taken in moderation can help u burn fat... Though dairy products don't contain fiber, they have a good amount of protein & calcium(a good amt is req when u r on exercise plan)... So, it's always advisable to take LOW-FAT dairy products when on diet(in reasonable quantity though)... This is the reason I know of... I am not sure if the recent research report has something different to say... Pls let me know where U read this from & I might be able to give you some insights on it...
Having said all these, I always prefer a well balanced meal & exercise for weight reduction than being only on diet or exercise or dairy diet or whatever they call it...

Surprisingly i found this fact being printed on yoplait (fruit flavoured yogurt) containers .. I googled and found some useful results from webmd website .. i thought u wld have had some experience abt this .. like does it really help losing weight and things .. Thats why i asked u ..

Hi pr,
my experience on weight loss is thru a balanced diet & exercise... I believe more in this kind of diet than relying on low card diet or high dairy diet or atkins diet etc etc... My suggestion would be, eat everything in moderation... Alavukku meerinaal amirthamum nanju...:)
thanks dev for the info ..
Hi Dev,
I am new to this forum and found this thread very informative. I started reading this thread yesterday and completed by today :). It is very interesting. Kudos to you and others.
I heard that Negative Calorie food ( eg. Apple, Watermelon, cauliflower,celery ....) plays a very good role in Weight reduction as it burns extra fat.
Any thougts ?
