Effect of Whites food on the Body

White rava
 Effects….
1. Risk of Obesity
The glycaemic index (GI)  is very high, about 71, which means it contains
double the amount of calories when compared to low GI and unprocessed
foods. So, when a person binges on such foods, the calorie count may spike
up. When the intake of calories is high, the body cells may receive more
glucose than required which in turn gets accumulated as fat, leading to rapid
weight gain.
2. Disrupts Digestion
One of the side effects  is that it can congest the digestive system. These has
very little food value for it contains no fibre. Lack of fibre makes it difficult to
digest it. It can upset the rate of metabolism thus interrupting the regular
bowel movements causing constipation and other digestive problems. Also, it
is short in moisture which disorders the digestive system.
5. The Danger of Developing Diabetes
Whites and diabetes are closely linked. The more refined a food item is, the
greater insulin is needed to manage it. The hormone insulin controls sugar
absorption by cells. Consuming too muchwhites  initiates surplus release of
sugar in the body. Elevated sugar levels can negatively impact the
functioning of the pancreas which secretes the insulin hormone into the
bloodstream. Initially, the pancreas may release extra insulin, activating an
insulin hike. However, in due course of time, it is unable to cope with the
increased production of insulin needed to regulate the blood sugar levels
leading to insulin resistance and incidence of Type-2 diabetes.
4. Nutrient Deficient
Foods made of whites may score in the taste section. However, they tend
to make a person feel stuffed and undernourished for they provide only
empty calories. All the essential nutrients, proteins, minerals get destroyed
during the processing of whites.

HABITS
 Introduction

Personal food habits develop as a part of

one’s social and cultural heritage;as well
as individual life style and environment.

Food habits are learned through everyday

living and family relationship.
 Key Concept
What to eat? Where to eat? When to eat?
 What to eat?

Our diet should consist principally of solid substances.

Cooked food is always less digestible than the raw article.

Slightly unripe fruit is more easily digested than that fully ripened.
Young leaves are especially good for a weak digestion.

Domestic fruits are consequently preferable

●
For infants,the mother's milk is
the only natural diet.
●
Children, deprived of this, are
prone to encumbrance.

Diseases of Digestive Organs

Whtever kind of encumbrance may be,the organs of digestion are always affected

When it become saturated with morbid matter its functional capacity dimnishes.

The digestive organs should always perform their work in such manner that we are
unconscious of their presence.
Characteristic symptoms of disorders of digestive organs

• Mucus membrane of the intestines becoming

dry-faeces cannot then be ejected-lose their
moisture and form a hard mass-Constipation
• Diarrhea- when the intestines still possess
sufficent energy to expel the fecal matter-the
fecal matter remaining in them;the
later,however,is ejected before it has assumed
the proper form.
• Encumbrance of the left side;
-digestive apparatus lying to the left are most
affected.
-Pressing sensations orpains will be experienced
there,either intermittenly or continually.
• Right side Encumbrance:
-the troubles will mainly be felt there
In back encumbrance:
-hemarrhoids are common
In front encumbrance:
-the digestive organs are less affected than in
other kinds of encumbrance
