ʻO nā meaʻai nui loa no ka hoʻemi kaumaha

ʻO ka ʻai ʻana i nā huaʻai a me nā mea kanu he ala kūpono loa ia e hoʻokahe i nā paona a mālama i ke kaupaona olakino. I kēia manawa ua hōʻike ʻia kahi noiʻi hou i piha nā mea kanu me nā pūhui ikaika e hoʻonui ai i kou pale ʻana, pale aku i nā maʻi a hakakā i ka momona.
Ua aʻo nui mākou e pili ana i kēia ma kahi hālāwai kūkā honua wela ma Lake Tahoe, Calif., Hoʻokipa ʻia e Oldways Preservation & Exchange Trust. Hōʻike ka noiʻi e hoʻomaka nei i kēia ʻaha kūkā me ka ʻole o ka kānalua ʻole ka mālama ʻana i nā meaʻai kanu mea kanu i ko mākou olakino.
Eia ke kumu: piha nā mea kanu me nā phytochemicals. (A ʻike ʻo Oldways - he hui hoʻonaʻauao nonprofit ka hui e paipai ana i nā lauana o ka ʻai olakino, e like me ka ʻai ʻana i nā hua, nā mea ʻai, nā hua, nā hua hua a me kahi waina ʻulaʻula pū kekahi.)
ʻO ke ola huna o nā mea kanu
Mai hōʻoki ʻia e ka huaʻōlelo phytochemicals (ʻōlelo ʻia "fighto-chemicals"). ʻO ia wale nō ka inoa ʻepekema no nā mea hoʻohui ikaika e hana i nā mea kanu e pale aku iā lākou iho mai ka maʻi ʻana, ʻā ʻia e ka lā i kahi crisp, a i ʻānai ʻia e nā ʻelala. (Phyto ʻo ia hoʻi "mea kanu" ma ka Helene.) A eia kahi kahi a me kāu saladi hua e komo ai: Manaʻo nā ʻepekema ʻo kēia mau hui like like hiki ke mālama iā ʻoe i ke olakino, me ka ʻaoʻao maikaʻi o ka hoʻokele kaumaha.
"Aia ma kahi o 25,000 phytochemical ma ka honua, a ke ʻike nei mākou e hana lākou i nā hana kūikawā i loko o nā cell e kōkua i ka pale ʻana i ka maʻi diabetes, nā ʻano maʻamau o ka maʻi kanesa, ka maʻi maʻi puʻuwai, ka makapō pili makahiki a me ka maʻi o Alzheimer," wahi a David Heber, MD , Ph.D., luna o ke Kulanui o Kaleponi, Los Angeles, Kikowaena no ka mālama pono kanaka a me ka mea kākau o What Color Is Your Diet? (HarperCollins, 2001).
ʻO kahi laʻana, ua ʻike paha ʻoe i ka ʻai ʻana i ka vinaigrette momona piha he mea maikaʻi no ka mea aia nā aila mea kanu i loko o nā phytochemical i hiki ke hoʻopōmaikaʻi i ka puʻuwai? Aia i loko o kēlā avocado ka nui o nā lutein, i ʻike ʻia e hoʻoliʻiliʻi ai i ka makaʻu o kekahi mau maʻi ʻalā a pale i nā maka? Hiki i nā phytochemical i loko o nā blueberries ke hoʻolōʻihi i ka emi ʻana o ka hana o ka lolo e pili ana i ka ulu ʻana? A ʻo kēlā mau lāʻau lāʻau lāʻau i loaʻa i nā hua a me nā hua e pale aku i nā maʻi ʻino o ke kolona, ka umauma a me ka prostate?
A ʻo kēia wale nō ka piko o ka hau. Ke ʻike mau nei nā kānaka ʻepekema i nā phytochemical hou aʻe i nā meaʻai mea kanu, a ke aʻo nei pehea lākou e hakakā ai i ka maʻi. Ma muli o ka ʻike ʻole ʻana o ke kiure i ka nui o nā meaʻai phytochemical āu e ʻai ai i kēlā me kēia lā, ʻōlelo ʻo Heber ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi.
ʻAʻole mākou e ʻōlelo iā ʻoe e hoʻohuli i nā mea ʻai, akā maʻalahi i kāu lawe ʻana i nā hua, nā mea ʻai, nā mea kanu, nā hua, nā hua a me nā ʻanoʻano. A, i ka hana ʻana i kēia me nā papa hana papaʻai nui ʻē aʻe, lilo paha ʻoe i kaupaona maʻamau. ʻO ka hapa nui o nā meaʻai mea kanu he low-calorie, lowfat a piha loa. A no ka mea he hou a piha, ʻaʻole ʻoe e hoʻopiha i kou kino me nā mea i hana ʻia.
ʻAʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻopihapiha i kou mau maka me nā wīwī a manaʻo ʻoe ke hana maikaʻi nei i kou kino. He mea nui e hoʻopau i nā ʻano mea kanu mea kanu waihoʻoluʻu e ʻohi i nā pono olakino. ʻO ia no ka mea he ʻokoʻa nā phytochemical e hana synergistically e hakakā i ka maʻi. No laila, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka hakakā ʻana i ka maʻi i ka hui ʻana me ka avocado i kāu saladi i ka ʻaina awakea.
Manaʻo mākou i kēia no ka mea ua ʻike mua nā ʻepekema i nā phytochemical ikaika. ʻO Lycopene, no ka laʻana, loaʻa i loko o ka grapefruit pink a me ka nui o nā huahana Tomato i kuke ʻia, hōʻike i ka hoʻohiki ʻana i ka hakakā ʻana i nā maʻi ʻaʻa a me nā maʻi ʻalā prostate, ʻoiai ʻo ka lutein, i loaʻa i ka avocado, kale a me ka spinach, hiki ke hoʻēmi i ka makaʻu o ka hahau, maʻi maʻi maʻi a me ka maʻi ʻaʻai prostate, ʻErlelo ʻo Heber. Hoʻohui pū lākou i kahi hui ikaika.
