HEROINE SPLITSKOG SPORTA, Herci Ganza Čaljkušić i Robert Kučić

Category Knjige o zdravlju i prehrani

Izdavač: Vetus Itinera, Split, 2013. 

Ova predivna knjiga je bila predstavljana u Arheološkom muzeju u Splitu. Split je poznat za izuzetne brojne vrhunske sportaše, ali manje se zna za one ženske koje su se bavile sportom kroz povijest grada. Procijena knjige na neovisnom portalu Dalmacija News kaže: "Nema čovjeka u Splitu koji u ovoj knjizi neće prepoznati svoju rodicu, prijateljicu, kolegicu, učenicu...".

Sport u Splitu, za žene i kao za muškarce, je veoma jedna velika i bogata tradicija.

ZAŠTO KINEZI NE BROJE KALORIJE, Lorraine Clissold

Category Knjige o zdravlju i prehrani

Autorica: Lorraine Clissold 

Naziv originala:“ Why the Chinese don't count calories“. Vlastito izdanje 2008. godine

U Hrvatskoj knjigu je izdala Mozaik knjiga 2010. godine. Prijevod Mihaela Velina

Vrlo interesantna knjiga o kineskom poimanju hrane i prehrane. Tradicionalna prehrana Kinezima omogučava da jedu dobro i obilno, da se ne debljaju, a ne trebaju se „patiti“ raznim dijetama kao ljudi zapadne civilizacije, kako se nebi udebljali ili bi smanjili masne naslage po tijelu.

Knjiga ne govori samo o hrani (u njoj ima i recepata) kao o bitnom pokretaču svih ljudskih funcija nego i o shvaćanju života u svoj njegovoj punoći. U kineskoj kulturi dominantan je holistički pristup pa to vrijedi i za kulturu hranjena. Hrana ima zadatak osnažiti ljudski chi zbog čega treba jesti živu hranu, a ne industrijski prerađenu. Osim toga biljna hrana, posebno hrana iz svježih listova koji su puni sunčeve energije je bolja od mesa jer chi iz mesa je izveden iz energije biljaka koje je životinja jela. U kineskoj kuhinji vegetarijanstvo nije ništa više prisutno nego u drugim kulturama. Samo je količina mesa u bitno manjoj količini i meso nije u „glavnoj ulozi“ u obroku.

Kinezi imaju tri glavna obroka – mi bismo rekli tri ručka. I svaki obrok treba sadržavati svih pet glavnih okusa, kiselo. gorko, slano, slatko i ljuto. Samo takav obrok je potpun i omogućava svim organima uravnotežen rad. Svaki okus potpomaže rad neknog vitalnog organa. Tako kiseli okus utječe na rad jetre i gušterače, gorki na rad srca i tankog crijeva, slatki na slezenu i želudac, ljuti na pluča i debelo crijevo te slani na bubrege i mjehur. Potrebno je naučiti koji je dominantan okus svake namirnice, no to nije previše složeno. Gorak i ljut okus jednostavno se dobivaju i dodavanjem raznih začina.

U prehrani važna je i životna dob. U starijoj životnoj dobi treba jesti više gorke i ljute hrane. Slatka hrana nije dominantna ni u jednoj životnoj dobi, ali je treba svakodnevno jesti. Kinezi ne jedu slatku hranu na kraju obroka kao desert, nego je ukomponiraju negdje u sredini obroka. Obzirom da im tijelo primi uravnotežen obrok koji potiče rad svih vitalnih organa tijelo im ne traži posebne slastice, kao što je navika zapadnjaka.

Knjiga nas poučava da je uravnoteženost ključni princip u kineskoj kuhinji. I ne samo u kuhinji već je to jedan od ključnih principa kineske životne filozofije . I svaki način prehrane utemeljen na tom principu je dobar i održava nas u dobrom stanju. NK

  • Europe’s big carnivores are on the rise – but can we live with bears next door?

    Numbers of animals once hunted as vermin are rising across the continent. But scientists worry about how we are going to get along with these predators

    Europe’s carnivores have had a remarkable change in fortune. After tens of thousands of years of persecution that wiped out sabretooth tigers, hyenas and cave lions, there has been a recent rebound in the continent’s surviving predators.

    Across mainland Europe, bear, wolf, lynx and wolverine numbers have risen dramatically as conservation measures introduced several decades ago have begun to make an impact. There are now about 20,500 brown bears in Europe, a rise of 17% since 2016, while there are 9,400 Eurasian lynx, a 12% increase.

  • UK soil breakthrough could cut farm fertiliser use and advance sustainable agriculture

    Research group says discovery could lead to new type of environmentally friendly farming

    A biological mechanism that makes plant roots more attractive to soil microbes has been discovered by scientists in the UK. The breakthrough – by researchers at the John Innes Centre in Norwich, Norfolk – opens the door to the creation of crops requiring reduced amounts of nitrate and phosphate fertilisers, they say.

    “We can now think of developing a new type of environmentally friendly farming with crops that require less artificial fertiliser,” said Dr Myriam Charpentier, whose group carried out the research.

  • As the UK prepares its next carbon budget, what needs to be included?

    Expert recommendations will influence plans for energy, housing, transport industry and farming for decades

    Labour will next week be confronted with stark policy choices that threaten to expose the fault lines between the Treasury and the government’s green ambitions, as advice for the UK’s next carbon budget is published.

    Plans for the energy sector, housing, transport, industry and farming will all be called into question in a sweeping set of recommendations for how the UK can meet the legally binding target of net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050.

  • These people protected US forests and lands. Their jobs have now vanished due to Trump

    Former federal employees devastated by president’s mass firings: ‘We’re at risk of losing our public lands to the billionaire agenda’

    Approximately 2,300 people have been terminated from the agencies that manage the 35m acres (14m hectares) of federal public lands in the US.

    These are our lands. They encompass national parks and forests, wilderness and marine protected areas, scenic rivers. They are home to campgrounds, river accesses, hiking trails and myriad other sites and facilities that more than 500 million people visit each year.

  • Young country diary: A sky full of geese is an awe-inspiring sight

    North Norfolk: Every morning, an endless flow of pink-footed geese passes overhead. Their comings and goings define the day

    The first thing you hear is a raucous cacophony in the distance, ebbing and flowing. Then the first small specks appear, and soon the sky is filled with a seemingly never-ending flow of geese.

    These are pink-footed geese, who migrate to north Norfolk at the start of winter along with hundreds of thousands of other geese. They come here to escape the harsh winters of Siberia, Iceland and Greenland, where they breed. Norfolk has an abundance of food compared to the Arctic: leaves, berries, seeds and crop remains.

  • Waves are getting bigger. Is the world ready?

    Southern Ocean waves are growing larger and faster, threatening coastlines. But some scientists think they could help turn the tide in the climate crisis

    In his remarkable memoir of his life chasing breaks in far-flung corners of the globe, Barbarian Days, the writer William Finnegan describes the “spooky duality” of waves, the way that, “when you are absorbed in surfing they seem alive. They each have personalities, distinct and intricate, and quickly changing moods, to which you must react in the most intuitive, almost intimate way – too many people have likened riding waves to making love. And yet waves are of course not alive, not sentient, and the lover you reach to embrace may turn murderous without warning.”

    This idea of duality is difficult to avoid when thinking about waves. In them we see energy and matter collapse into each other, find fluidity with structure and form, and the eternal in the transient, apprehend both beauty and symmetry and violence and terror. Likewise, the physics of waves are simultaneously very simple and impossibly complex, the non-linear nature of fluid dynamics meaning they can remain relatively regular or combine without warning into rogue waves capable of sweeping people off rocks and sinking ships.

  • Weather tracker: Winds batter South Africa as Storm Coral blasts parts of Med

    In Europe and large parts of the US it has been a week of plunging temperatures and heavy snow

    Severe weather hit South Africa this week, with intense thunderstorms, flooding and reported tornadoes. The South African weather service issued warnings for provinces across central and eastern parts of the country, covering the risk of torrential downpours, strong winds, hail and lightning.

    One tornado, in Pretoria North on Tuesday, damaged hundreds of homes, vehicles and buildings and uprooted trees. By the end of the week, areas in eastern South Africa may record cumulative rainfall of about 100-150mm.

  • ‘To say there’s no future is counterproductive’: metal megastars Architects on grief, climate and hope for humanity

    Consumed by anger and still mourning a brother and bandmate, the British quartet have written their masterpiece. They explain how they’re fighting self-loathing and trying to age responsibly

    In a world of low royalties and short attention spans, not many bands make it to 11 albums, much less have their 11th be their masterpiece. But over the course of 20 years, the metalquartet Architects have inched towards this milestone. The Sky, the Earth & All Between sets out its scale in its title, where gigantic pop choruses soar over hellish chasms of churning noise, resulting in the most consistently sublime British rock album of this decade. The band are now at their arena-filling, Metallica-supporting peak, adored by millions.

    “But it means nothing,” says frontman, Sam Carter. “Because you don’t believe it. If you can’t access that part of you that lets it in, then it’s pointless.” Drummer and lyricist, Dan Searle, is equally downcast. “I punish myself, I loathe myself,” he says evenly, blinking behind his glasses. “I feel like I’m shit at everything.” Across two decades, the band have been buffeted by poor mental health, creative differences and an instance of particularly traumatic grief. While the pair are quick to joke during our long conversation in a London photo studio, and are clearly ravenously ambitious, I have never met a rock band as candid about their frailties.

  • The EPA weighed two LA beachfront sites for toxic waste sorting. These ‘hippies and hicks’ revolted

    Residents in Topanga Canyon – an area of Indigenous heritage and artists – mobilized against the state’s decision to bring in hazardous materials after wildfires

    Twenty years ago, it was called Rodeo Grounds – an eclectic neighborhood of artists, musicians and surfers living in beach shacks where Topanga Canyon meets the Pacific Ocean. In a bizarre agreement with the former owner some paid as little as $100 a month for rent, raising multiple generations of their families here since the 1950s. But that was before the state purchased the property and started evicting residents in 2001. Julie Howell, who once owned Howell-Green Fine Art Gallery further up in the canyon, says the bohemians were kicked out.

    “I actually had a show in my gallery 20 years ago for the group of artists who lived there at Rodeo Grounds, who they kicked out of that spot because it was so environmentally sensitive,” says Howell.

  • ‘If not fire, we’ll be killed by hunger’: villagers continue to feel fallout from Bolivia’s worst wildfires

    Residents battle food shortages and health issues after vast areas of forest and farmland burned last year

    As she walks away from the house where she raised her family, Isabel Surubí pauses to point at the bed of a stream, now covered with dry leaves, that once supplied her entire community. “The water used to come from here,” she says.

    In 2024, wildfires in Bolivia burned more than 10m hectares (about 39,000 sq miles) of forest, farmland and savannah – an area greater than the size of Portugal. After the fires, and the drought that preceded them, the spring feeding Surubí’s village of Los Ángeles in Bolivia’s tropical dry forest ran dry.
