Diet information The Glycaemic Index Diet The glycaemic index nutrition and weight loss system is linked to the gi index, a chart showing foods and a score illustrating the ease with which the carbohydrates of the food gets changed to glucose in your blood stream. The claim is that slow acting foods (ie those with a low Gi score), suppress your appetite for longer and help you to reduce your consumption of food without feeling you are always hungry. It is also extremely good for people with diabetes, as the low GI food types are useful in minimizing surges in glucose secretion. The Atkins’ Diet Although it originated back in the 1960s, the atkins diet has been one of the most popular weight loss systms over the last few years. Although not accepted by all scientists, it claims to allow fat reduction whilst allowing foods that are normally considered bad for diets, such as pork and cheeses. Unlike other diets, on the atkins diet it is considered good to eat fat and protein, it is the carbs that must be avoided. It is often referred to as a low carbohydrate, high protein, nutrition and weight loss system. With this diet, the foods you should avoid are processed and refined sugar, milk, white bread, starchy vegetables, white rice and white flour, including cereals and pasta made from white flour. With this diet the foods you are encouraged to eat are nutrient-rich unprocessed foods like meat, fish and poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and, as a consequence, olive oil. The South Beach Diet The South Beach diet is a diet invented by Miami, florida-area cardiologist arthur agatston which emphasizes that dieters should eat "good carbohydrates" instead of "bad carbs" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats" Doctor agatston invented his weight loss regime for people who have heart disease, as a consequence of his detailed analysis of scientific data completed on other dietary studies. Examples of good foods include, canadian bacon, skinless poultry, prawns, fat free cheese, peanuts, lowfat or nonfat milk and some vegatables, such as black beans, cauliflower and water chestnuts.

"A good cook is the peculiar gift of the gods. He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate, from the palate to the finger's end.
"Walter Savage Landor"

"A diet is the penalty we pay for exceeding the feed limit."

"Reality check: you can never, ever, use weight loss to solve problems that are not related to your weight. At your goal weight or not, you still have to live with yourself and deal with your problems. You will still have the same husband, the same job, the same kids, and the same life. Losing weight is not a cure for life"
Phillip C. McGraw
