Mexican Food Recipes

I love Mexican food, but it seems like most Mexican dishes are high in fat and calories. They contain a lot of cheese, fried food, and rich salsas. It also seems like the only vegatables in Mexican food are corn (which is not really a vegatable), and hot peppers. Are there ant Mexican dishes that are healthy? Are there any ones that contain green vegatables, like broccoli, green breans, or spinach?
If not how to mexicans manage to get the proper nutrition?

The stuff you get piled with cheese and sour cream, most of it is not truly mexican food. We have a lot of dishes that do not call for frying or adding all that stuff you see in "tex-mex" or taco bell crap.

A lof of mexican dishes call for cooking meat (whether chicken or beef), and served with a simple tomato sauce or a sauce with some kind of chile.

Stuffed poblano peppers, you can stuff them with a mix of rice and ground meat.

Or cut the poblano pepper in strips and saute with onion and that can be either a meal or a side or something to add on your meat.

There's plenty of vegetable soups or chicken rice soups that are healthy as well.

You s hould also keep in mind…if you see a dish that wsa fried like flautas, or some enchiladas , most of them can be baked in the oven and taste just as well.

Tonight I am going to mexican restaurant. I want to eat the most heathest item on the menu. I realize that mexican food isn't healthy, but…..are their items that are more bad than others?

Fill up on some chips and salsa, chicken tortilla soup is usually good, as long as it isn't cream based (I've only seen that once though). As others said, fajitas are good, and burritos without cheese should be good also. Just ask them to put sauces or condiments on the side, and hold the cheese.

DHEA May Have A Significant Impact On Lean Body Mass In one study conducted by D. Jakubowicz and colleagues, 22 men took 300 mg of DHEA nightly for 30 days. They observed an average 27% fall in insulin levels. They also found an 89% increase in IGF-1 (a powerful hormone with multi-faceted effects, most notable its growth hormone-like effects on body composition), a 14% decrease in body fat, and a 7.8% increase in lean body mass. DHEA May Block Cortisols Catabolic (Breakdown) Effects On Muscle Tissue Other discussions at the DHEA conference centered on the Cortisol – DHEA relationship. Cortisol is a catabolic (tissue breakdown) inducing stress hormone. Exercise has been shown to significantly raise serum cortisol levels. These exercise- induced, elevated cortisol levels may contribute profoundly to catabolic effects on muscle tissue. DHEA has been shown to block some acute effects of stress induced cortisol release. Pure Pharmaceutical DHEA – Not Mexican Wild Yam Because Mexican Wild Yam contains precursors to DHEA, many unscrupulous companies are trying to masquerade this herb for the real thing. Mexican Wild Yam does not contain any DHEA. Mexican Wild Yam has not been shown in any studies to have the positive effects that real DHEA has. AST Sports Science uses only pharmaceutical quality DHEA. DHEA May Have A Profound Influence On Positive Body Composition Alteration Favoring Lean Muscle Tissue Accrual Yet another study revealed that high dose DHEA supplementation decreased body fat levels by 31% while maintaining the same overall body weight in just 28 days. This indicates a significant increase in lean body mass at the expense of body fat. This study shows DHEA may have a profound ability to significantly alter body composition to favor lean mass accrual. DHEA May Cause Healthier – Leaner Eating Habits Another study showed DHEA had an interesting effect on the choice of foods consumed. A controlled animal study showed those administered with DHEA, when given a
