आधुनिक युग में पुरातन परंपरा

हमारे प्राचीन काल के पास बहुत कुछ अच्छा है हमें देने के लिए। आज भी हम बहुत सी चीजें अपनी दिनचर्या में शामिल करते हैं जो हम अपनी दादी नानी से सुनते आए हैं क्योंकि हम जानते हैं वह बातें या परंपराएं पहले भी और आज भी महत्वपूर्ण हैं। फर्क सिर्फ उन्हें अपनाने में आधुनिकरण का है। आधुनिकता को समझने के लिए परंपरा का ज्ञान होना बहुत जरूरी है क्योंकि उसकी जड़ी वहीं से जुड़ी हुई है। पुराने समय में हमारे ऋषि-मुनियों ने या बाद के समय के वैज्ञानिकों ने तर्क के साथ जो जीवन के नए मापदंड प्रस्तुत किए थे वह आज भी प्रासंगिक हैं। परिवर्तन एक निरंतर चलने वाली प्रक्रिया है जो कि किसी भी परंपरा मे नवीनता लेकर आती है बिना उसके महत्व को कम किए। उसी परंपरा को ग्रीन फ्यूचर प्राइवेट लिमिटेड आपकी रसोई में लेकर आया है बिल्कुल आसान और बेहतरीन इस्तेमाल के साथ। ग्रीन फ्यूचर घरेलू आटा चक्की उसी परंपरागत तरीके से ही किसी भी तरह के अनाज/ मसाले /दालो को पिस्ता है जैसा कि पुराने समय में पत्थर के दो पाटों के बीच में उन्हें डालकर पीसा जाता था। पत्थर से की गई पिसाई अनाज या दूसरे सभी से जाने वाली वस्तुओं के पौष्टिक तत्वों को बरकरार रखती है और आटे को गर्म होने से बचाती है जिससे उसके फाइबर नष्ट नहीं होते। पहले के समय में पूरे दिन के खाने के लिए सुबह ही घर की महिलाओं के द्वारा आटा पीस आ जाता था। उस समय आटे को कई दिनों के लिए पीसकर इकट्ठा करके नहीं रखा जाता था क्योंकि शायद वह जानते थे कि ताजे आटे और पीसकर रखे गए आटे की पौष्टिकता में बहुत अंतर आ जाता है। ताजा पिसा हुआ आटा ज्यादा पौष्टिक होने के साथ-साथ बहुत हल्का भी होता है जो की बूंद के वक्त अधिक पानी सोखता है जिससे आटे की गुणवत्ता कई गुना बढ़ जाती है। ग्रीनफ्यूचर आटा चक्की को इस्तेमाल करना बहुत ही आसान है आप इसे अपनी रसोई के स्लैब पर ही रख सकते हैं। 12″*12″*16″ की इस मशीन से आप बहुत कम समय में किसी भी तरह की अनाज को मनचाहे आकार में पी सकते हैं। इस में प्रयोग आने वाला पत्थर (सेरेमिक कोरेन्डम) आटे को पीसते वक्त ठंडा रखता है। यह पत्थर लंबे समय तक चलने वाला तथा खुद पैदा होने वाला पत्थर है। इस आटा चक्की को प्रयोग करने के बहुत से फायदे में से कुछ इस प्रकार हैं :

1. शुद्धता: बाहर आता विश्वानी में आटे के संक्रमित होने के या उसमें शुद्धता मिलने की संभावना काफी अधिक होती है जिससे आप घर में ग्रीन फ्यूचर ग्रेन ग्राइंडर से आटा पीस कर बच सकते हैं। बाजार से पिसे हुए मसालों में जिस तरह की मिलावट पाई जाती है वह सेहत के लिए बहुत ही ज्यादा हानिकारक होती है। Green future domestic flour Mills की मदद से ना केवल मिलावट को रोका जा सकता है बल्कि घर पर पीसने से मसालों की लागत भी काफी कम होती है।

2. पौष्टिकता: ताजे पिसे हुए आटे में किसी भी अनाज के वह सभी पौष्टिक तत्व मौजूद होते हैं जो स्टोर किए गए आटे में धीरे-धीरे खत्म हो जाते हैं।

3. कम आवाज: इन सभी च चक्कयो में प्रयोग होने वाली elastic bedding को इस तरह से डिजाइन किया गया है कि यह पीसने की समय पैदा होने वाले शोर को बाकी आटा चक्की ओ की तुलना में बहुत कम कर देता है।

4. उत्तम परिणाम: आकार में बहुत छोटी होने के बावजूद इसके परिणाम अविश्वसनीय हैं। इसमें अगर आप कम से कम एक चम्मच अनाज/ मसाले या दाल भी पीसना चाहे तो आप तुरंत ऐसा कर सकते हैं बिना किसी प्रोसेस
लौस के।

5. कम बिजली की खपत: सभी 11 मॉडल्स में छोटी चक्की ओं में 360 वोट तथा बड़ी में 720 वोट की औद्योगिक श्रेणी की मोटर काम करती है जो कि एक यूनिट से भी कम बिजली प्रयोग करके अच्छी रफ्तार में आपको पिसी हुई सामग्री उपलब्ध कराती है।

6. सुविधाजनक: आटा चक्कीओं को प्रयोग करना, उठाना, कहीं ले जाना बेहद आसान है। हर प्रयोग के बाद इसे साफ करने की भी आवश्यकता नहीं पड़ती। अपनी आवश्यकता के अनुसार आप जब चाहे सिर्फ एक बटन दबा कर इसे प्रयोग कर सकते हैं। इसके अंदर लगा हुआ ऑटोमेटिक क्लीनिंग ब्रश अंदर किसी भी तरह का अवशेष रहने नहीं देता जिससे मशीन अंदर से साफ ही रहती है। इस तरह से सभी विशेषताएं ग्रीन फ्यूचर फ्लोर मिल्स को दूसरी चकिकयो के मुकाबले में बेहतर और विशेष साबित करती हैं।

 

ग्रीन फ्यूचर आपके स्वस्थ जीवन की कामना करता है!!!

Whole grain diet – make a switch

Before we proceed further, let’s have an idea what whole grain is? Any grain is mainly sub-categorized into two groups – whole grain and refined grain. Whole grain preserves all three parts called:

Bran: Outer shell of grain which is packed with fiber, antioxidants and numerous minerals.

Endosperm: After that comes this second or middle layer which generally contains carbs.

Germ: Innermost layer provides plenty of vitamins, protein and plant compounds.

Whereas, refined flours are mostly stripped off germ and bran, leaving only the endosperm to achieve finest texture, color and extra life of flour. Once you develop the habit of consuming whole grain in your dietary, you will find them full of nutrients, nice texture and most importantly the flavor which circulate energy in your body.

Americans health and human services department had issued a dietary guideline in 2005 to include at least three servings of whole grain a day. (Source: Everyday Health.com)

Adding more whole grain over refined flour in your life is a smart choice indeed. It not only fill you up with vitamins and fibers but also satisfy your taste buds without any guilt. Through this blog I intend to take you on a culinary journey with lot more health benefits, enjoying more delicacies to binge on.

Cast a look why one should switch to whole grain flour instead of refined flour while having pastas, breads, buns and tortillas etc.

  1. More fibers and nutrients: Being a part of this journey from beginning you must be acquainted with the higher nutrition value of whole grain. They are particularly high in vitamin B, zinc, iron, magnesium, proteins and antioxidants and fibers while refined flours are deprived of them.
  2. Weight loss: if you are desperate to shed some extra pounds, sticking to whole grain diet is a right decision. Whole grain indulgence is very much useful in losing weight owing to high fibers which make you feel full and consequently prevent overeating.
  3. Reducing the risk of multiple disease: Incorporating WHOLE GRAIN into your diet keeps you healthy for a long. Whole grain may help to decrease the risk of following diseases:
  4. Heart risk and stroke: observational studies have proven that eating whole grain regularly reduces the risk of heart disease and stroke, which is one of the leading cause of deaths worldwide. A review of 10 studies found that three, 1-ounce (28 gram) serving of whole grain daily may lower heart disease by 22%. Find the blog to help lowering the risk of heart ailments with whole grain flour on our website greenfuturemill.com .
  5. Type2 diabetes: Intake of whole grain flour (at least 2 servings a day) than refined flour proves a great help in preventing type diabetes.
  6. Rectify digestive disorders like constipation because a rich amount of fibers are present in whole grain which are otherwise removed from refined flour.
  7. Pacifying chronic inflammation: Inflammation can be the root cause of many chronic diseases. Fibers in whole grains like brown rice, oatmeal etc.

I think, the above reasons are good enough to encourage you to make the switch, only thing required here is “willingness to change”.

WHOLE GRAINS & DIABETES: A Q&A WITH DR. PHILIP SCHARPER

To learn more about whole grains’ relationship with diabetes prevention and management, we caught up with Dr. Philip Scharper, an ophthalmologist who works with many patients with diabetes complications, and who is also the founder of Serious Oats® hot cereal.

Diabetes is a chronic condition in which the body is not able to metabolize carbohydrates properly, leading to high levels of sugar in the blood. Whether you have diabetes or not, it’s important to make your carbs count. In fact, the American Diabetes Association names whole grains as one of their top 10 “diabetes super-foods.” To learn more about whole grains’ relationship with diabetes prevention and management, we caught up with Dr. Philip Scharper, an ophthalmologist who works with many patients with diabetes complications, and who is also the founder of Serious Oats® hot cereal.

Old-ways Whole Grains Council: What does research tell us about diabetes prevention? Are there lifestyle changes we can make that have been shown to reduce our risk of developing diabetes?

Dr. Philip Scharper: Whether you are at risk or not, staying physically active and maintaining a healthy diet are two of the best ways to keep yourself on the right path. Making healthy choices at meal time is the easiest place to start. Choose a diet rich with fiber and whole grains to help maintain your blood sugar levels and minimize insulin sensitivity. Stay away from foods that are high in simple carbohydrates that will spike your blood sugar levels. And get moving. The body uses insulin more efficiently for up to 70 hours after exercise. So exercising three or four times a week is extremely beneficial in prevention and management of diabetes.

WGC: What are some common misconceptions you hear about diabetes?

PS: It is a common misconception that eating too many sweets is the only way to get Type 2 diabetes. Though sugar plays a role, it is important to understand the whole picture. Learn about what you are eating. For example, the difference between a simple carbohydrate and a complex carbohydrate is a good place to start. Simple carbohydrates like glucose, fructose, sucrose, which are found in fruit juice and corn syrup, are composed of easy-to-digest basic sugars. Complex carbohydrates such as whole grains, brown rice, and legumes are rich in fiber and break down slower in the digestive system. This slower breakdown prevents your body from experiencing spikes in blood sugar which is important in managing Type 2 diabetes. In fact, a recent study suggests that increasing one’s intake of whole-grain wheat, oats, and rye helps to reduce a person’s risk for developing Type 2 diabetes for this very reason.

WGC: As a doctor, it must have been quite an eye-opener to get involved in the food industry as well. Can you describe your journey to creating a line of healthy food products, and what inspires you?

PS: My experience as a physician was the catalyst to the creation of Serious Oats®. I work many days where it is common to go 6 to 8 hours or more without eating… I wanted to find a combination of nutrients that would keep me satiated and fueled during long hours in the operating room or clinic. As an ophthalmologist and retina specialist, I see many patients struggling with the effects of diabetes. Both Types 1 and 2 diabetes are potentially blinding, causing retinopathy, glaucoma and cataracts.  I have found that, like me, my patients also struggle to find convenient, healthy and tasty meal options. I am proud to have created something that can hopefully help patients avoid the devastating effects of diabetes.

Gluten and its relationship with domestic attachakki

What is Gluten?

Glu-ten is derived from “Glue” like property of wet dough. Frequently found in wheat and other grains like Rye and Barley, gluten has two proteins called gluten-in and gliadin, which are exceedingly harmful to an Individual prone to Celiac disease.

“Eat Fresh, Live Longer”

WHOLE GRAIN VALUE: 25% MORE PROTEIN THAN REFINED GRAIN

If you’re trying to eat more protein, you’re not alone. But if the only things that come to mind when you think “protein” are grilled meats and Greek yogurt, a simple swap for boosting your protein intake could be hiding right under your nose: just switch to whole grains! Most grains have about 25% more protein when eaten their whole form; whole wheat flour, for example, has 28% more protein than refined wheat flour.

Here’s some food for thought: Of the six foods below, which have the most protein?

3 GRAINS
3 NON – GRAINS

You might be surprised to learn that all six foods contain about 6 grams of protein each. Since a sedentary man needs about 56 grams of protein a day, and a sedentary woman about 46 grams a day, whole grains can make a significant contribution to your daily protein needs. 

hat’s good news, given that so many of us are looking for more protein. According to a 2014 Mintel report  titled “Protein Fever,” one-quarter of Americans said they were eating more protein than a year ago. In a 2015 analysis, NPD GROUP  said, “It’s protein’s time to shine” and went on to say that heightened interest in protein extends to all age groups.

In a late 2015 Forbes.com article, Phil Lempert predicted that, “In 2016 we will see new kinds of proteins that are more sustainable and affordable than animal sources. Algae, nuts, vegetables, yeast and even insects will be used as ingredients to up the protein punch.” And sure enough, a few manufacturers are responding by adding cricket flour to boost protein content. Or adding peanut flour to brands that never contained it before, to the consternation of some with peanut allergies. 

Given that companies are looking for a protein punch in every place imaginable, it is only a matter of time before manufacturers embrace the added value of whole grains, rather than trying to disassemble nature and put it back together again. Especially since whole grains also boast a host of other taste, environmental, and nutrition benefits.
