The low calorie diet
As most people know, low calorie diet is based on the fact that if you are going to reduce weight, it is essential to consume less calories than you burn up. So what is a calorie? A calorie is a unit of measurement for energy. The 'calorie' is the the amount of energy required to raise one cubic centimeter of water by one degree centigrade. If something has higher calories, then it will will give you a larger amount of energy when eaten. Low calorie foods include cabbage, bell pepper, apricots, beef, and eggs. The Zone Diet The Zone diet is a weight loss regime initially created by Barry Sears in a number of books, publications and an associated web site. The Zone diet isn’t distinctly a weight loss diet, although some people discover that they actually seem to lose a few pounds by following it. The main theory of the Zone Diet is that if one can limit the levels of insulin and glucogen (both hormones), then your body releases eicosanoids which puts your body in a state of equilibrium that is an awful lot more healthy than normal, known as the 'zone'. Sears believes that if you get into this 'zone', your body is working at its most efficient and, as a consequence, doesn't need to convert surplus energy to fat. The most interesting procedure of the system is to maintain the ratio of carbs to proteins, and to take high levels of Omega 3 and omega 6. Carotenoid foods (includes paprika, kale and sweet potatoes) These vegetables and fruits contain alpha and beta carotenes thought play a key role in minimizing the chances of contracting, particularly those cancers involving the esophagus and stomach. Many are also low in calories, so are ideal for including in your weight loss regime. |
