LG Raisz “Osteoporosis: current approaches and future prospects in diagnosis, pathogenesis, and management” The antidote to this oxidation is, of course, anti-oxidation. The goal is to maintain a perfect balance between free radicals and the antioxidants in our body, thereby fortifying our organism against natural oxidation that occurs. To strengthen our body’s defense and prevent oxidation, we need a diet rich in antioxidants.

Strongly associated with the health foods movement of the 1970s, carob powder has commonly been used as a substitute for cocoa powder due to its similarity in color, texture, and cooking properties. Carob contains calcium, but not oxalic acid. Oxalic acid tends to reduce the body’s ability to absorb calcium and zinc and is found in cocoa and chocolate. A diet high in oxalates also increases the risk of developing kidney stones. Carob powder does not contain oxalates. On the contrary, carob has a much lower caloric value than chocolate (it has 60% fewer calories) and is therefore considered its perfect substitute. In fact, precisely because of its high content of calcium and phosphorus, it is considered to contribute to the prevention of osteoporosis. Antioxidants from aqueous decoction of carob pods biomass (Ceretonia siliqua L.): Optimisation using response surface methodology and phenolic profile by capillary electrophoresis Carob, touted as a chocolate alternative, has gotten a bad rap over the years — perhaps understandably, since there’s no reason whatever to replace chocolate. Carob is its own thing entirely. This guide to carob has all you need to know about buying, using, and enjoying it. Carob chips: Modeled after chocolate chips, this product is also available, but often made of less savory stuff. Hydrogenated vegetable oils take the place of cocoa butter and some also use whey powder (dairy) as a filler. Even the best options for carob chips tend to be waxy in texture, so you’re better off taking a pass, no matter how tempting they may seem.Tsikoudia or Raki is the traditional Cretan alcoholic drink, which is made from the leftovers of the grapes when making wine.

Carob has a long history in human consumption. The Greek Theophrastus recorded in 4BC that his fellow Greeks called the carob the Egyptian Fig. There is also evidence that Ancient Egyptians used carob. Both the pods and seeds have been found in Egyptian Tombs. Further, the Romans ate the Carob pods when they were green and fresh for their natural sweetness. Thus, Carob is no newly discovered food. As the founder of Creta Carob, Elias Manousakas states "It is the lost treasure of Crete''. This program is a way of life, one which I have adopted successfully, and more importantly one which I have sustained for over one year now. My weight remains steady at 160 pounds (down from 216). My energy levels rival that of someone 20 years younger than me (I’m now 57), enabling me to exercise in any way that I desire, from lifting weights to intense cardio sessions.” The glycemic index of carob is very low. It does not contain caffeine and is perfectly suitable for individuals with diabetes. In general, it has positive effects on blood glucose levels and is used in the management of diabetes and obesity. The fruit of the carob tree also contains polyphenols, antioxidant compounds that aid in cancer prevention and the management of hyperlipidemia. Dog Treats: If you like to dote on your dogs, make something more special than plain biscuits, such as Woofie Pies, modeled after the chocolate and vanilla cake sandwiches typically known as whoopie pies. Dog treats are actually a good use for carob, as it’s widely accepted that chocolate isn’t good for dogs.Carob Pudding: Creamy avocados make a naturally rich base for this no-cook Creamy Carob Pudding. Full of good fats for clean energy, it’s also paleo- and keto-friendly. Locust bean gum is a structural polysaccharide found in the walls of fruits and vegetables (ie in the skin) but also in the kernel (seed). Pectin is a white or slightly dark powder that under suitable conditions can form a gelatinous mass. Carob pectin is derived from the locust bean, the locust bean fruit, and specifically from the endosperm of the locust bean seed. Locust bean pectin is completely plant-based, unlike commercial gelatin derived from animal collagen, and does not contain gluten and sugars. It is also hypoallergenic and suitable for everyone. Also, pectin in fruits is probably the mildest method of detoxifying pollutants as it enhances the release of heavy metals and other chemicals into the bloodstream by binding to them and eliminating them all from the body. the large intestine works better. It has also recently been shown that pectins can lower 'bad' (LDL) cholesterol levels as well as total cholesterol levels.

Effects of extraction conditions on the recovery of phenolic compounds and in vitro antioxidant activity of carob (Ceratonia siliqua L.) pulp Optimization of roasting conditions as an useful approach for increasing antioxidant activity of carob powder Carob is naturally sweet, with a subtly toasted, nutty flavor and hints of cereal and grain. If you’re expecting chocolate, you’ll be disappointed, but taste with an open mind (and palate) to enjoy a whole different flavor experience. How to buy and store carob Carob energy balls: Much like you’d use cocoa powder to make energy balls, swap in carob powder for another kind of flavor profile.

Germ Flour ExtractsCreta Carob was established in 2006 and started its operations in 2011. It is a family company that main focus is the production of different biological products from the Carob Pods. Creta Carob is located in Crete Island in a little village called Argyroupoli. During our production process we combine ancient procedures with new technologies.

If only such a lofty comparison wasn’t sold to boost its profile, it might have had a fighting chance as its own uniquely flavorful and distinctive ingredient. What is carob and where did it come from? A mixture of feta and myzithra or anthotyros (whey cheeses similar to ricotta) will also work well. After completing my 10-week program, I had a regularly-scheduled appointment with my doctor. Because my cholesterol has always been above the normal range (229 last year) I requested that she test it again this year. I’m happy to report that my total cholesterol dropped to 169, which is in the normal range, and all my other numbers improved as well.”
