Get off the roller coaster

How about trying some different types of grain this week that are low GI (lose the blood sugar peaks that put you on the roller coaster of greed - we've all been there - and feel fuller for longer), along with lots of other nutritional benefits?

Quinoa (kɪnˈwɑ)
A complete protein that contains all nine essential amino acids. A 185g serving has about a third of your RDA of magnesium (nerve and muscle function)

Buckwheat
Another complete protein with potasssium and copper (great anti-inflammatory properties)

Bulgar Wheat
Low in fat, easily prepared and lots of B vits in there (immunity boosters)

I have quinoa fairly regularly in salads to make them more of a meal, particularly on training days
