Another point of view in order to maintain perfect health is the concept of slow food. It is well known that some fast food can be harmful to our health. Despite
its functionality and economic values, fast food to some extent be
responsible for numerous health, such as high cholesterol, hypertension, obesity and heart disease. These results are supported by research and endless studies that the development of food processing is still on the road.
Consumption of fast food has become a tradition in this busy modern world. Home cooking is a waste of time, practice and leaves the elderly should do during their time of antiquity. At the end of the day, people can forget that cooking at home is actually much more beneficial to our health. Fortunately, there are many people who are still concerned about the importance of home cooking or slow cooking. These are the people who care about the health of their families.
The Slow Food movement now has become a global organization with specific tasks in each country of the world. One
of its missions is the local promotion of healthy foods from all
countries using the art of natural food and avoid the use of
preservatives or chemicals.
I think most families can not always cook at home and eat from time to time. And
I also believe that the incidence of hypertension is very low in these
families, not unless all members of the family to eat at home. The role of a housewife and mother becomes extremely important. It
must be able to bring the whole family in the dining room table to
enjoy home cooking healthy, she prepared with love and care.
* Preparing homemade meals is not an easy task. Knowledge
of healthy food ingredients and effort to buy and select the
ingredients in traditional markets or directly from the farmer is
required. Here are some tips on how to prepare healthy home as recommended by the Slow Food movement foods :
* Set of fresh ingredients as the first priority. Buy in traditional markets or directly from farmers. Traditional markets are shorter fresh food distribution channel. Our body needs fresh or freshly harvested food ingredients. Vegetables can not be stored overnight and jobs are generally not equipped with freezers to preserve their freshness.
* On the other hand, there is a strong possibility that the
vegetables sold in supermarkets has been maintained for quite a long
time, even for a week. This will reduce the value of plant nutrition. This also applies to meat and fresh fish.
* When buying fresh produce in traditional markets should consider
the use of dangerous and illegal preservatives such as formaldehyde and
the use of prohibited food coloring.
* Replace the use of spices in the moment and monosodium glutamate ( MSG), as fresh onion, garlic, onion, celery, ginger, white pepper and oil sesame.

* You can prepare your home "instant spices" freezing your mixture
into an ice cube tray or put it in a spice food grade plastic bag. Then you can use when necessary and keep the rest in the freezer.
Well, I can conclude that the concept of Slow Food is a good tradition. Enjoy home cooking, like me, is a really good contribution to health. Choose what to eat and what ingredients they need is at their discretion. Other
advantages are that you can save money by cooking at home and at the
same time to avoid the temptation of bad external power.
