Samboan, Cebu – You may be wondering if a coconut is truly a nut. In reality, and depending on the criteria used, a coconut can be classified as a nut, a fruit, or a seed. Coconuts are generally considered fruits in the culinary world. They are well-known for imparting a sweet, nutty, and possibly tropical flavor to dishes. They grow in tropical areas and are harvested for their white flesh, oil, and juices.
When consumed in moderation, coconut can be a delicious and nutritious addition to your diet. Coconut meat is high in medium-chain fatty acids (MCFAs), a type of saturated fat that the human body digests much more easily than animal fats. It is a good source of insoluble fiber, which adds bulk to the stool and can help prevent constipation and hemorrhoids. Unlike many other fruits that are high in carbohydrates, coconuts are high in fat. They also contain protein, a variety of minerals, and trace amounts of B vitamins. However, they are not a good source of many other vitamins.

Cebu City – One of the bases of a healthy menu is a selection of nutrient-dense recipes. Before investing the time to create new recipes examine first the ingredients you’ll use because there's a good chance that some of the meals on your current menu are already healthy; others may only require minimal modification, and some may not even turn out to be edible.
Creating healthy dishes requires more than just swapping out undesirable fats for healthier ones or substituting fresh herbs for salt. The meals you prepare should be pleasant and savory while also having the essential nutrients. Review the recipes you already use before spending the time, energy, and money to modify or create a new one. Check to determine if it follows the guidelines for a healthy recipe such as no artificial-preservatives-added or uses fortified food items. Healthy alternatives from the original recipe can increase the nutritional value of your meals while also lowering the amount of fat, sugar, and salt the recipe contains. To be certain that most nutrients can be retained, consider the method of cooking. By applying healthy cooking methods, you may preserve the nutrition and flavor of your food without using a lot of salt, oil, or fat. Consider the components of each ingredient too, as well as the serving size.
