Beetroot for blood pressure management. Researchers have known for some time that juice may help lower blood pressure, but in 2010 UK researchers revealed that nitrate is the special ingredient in beetroot which lowers blood pressure and may help to fight heart disease.
Most people agree that milk and other dairy products can be part of a healthy diet. Unfortunately, however, it can contribute to weight gain. Cowâs milk contains calcium, protein and a host of other essential nutrients. We use it in our cereal, we add it to hot beverages, and we drink it just for its taste.
My understanding is that the target 1oz (20g) weight gain per day is an average that is actually based upon bottle fed babies, because powered milk takes longer to digest it therefore also is in the babys system longer to convert into fat which is why a bottle fed baby gains weight quicker.
