Types of dietThe Atkins’ Diet Developed by dr. robert atkins in the 1960s, the atkins diet is still widely used today. Although not accepted by all scientists, it supposedly allows weight loss whilst allowing many of the foods you love, for example meat and hard cheeses. Unlike other diets, on the atkins diet you eat protein and fat, it is the carbs that are on the banned list. 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. Unlike other diets, with the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat continues to be nutrient-rich unprocessed foods such as meat, fish and, as a consequence, poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and, as a result, olive oil. The Atkins’ Diet Theory The logic behind the atkins diet is that although our bodies use both fats and carbohydrates to change into carbohydrates, it is the carbohydrates which are burned primarily. If we eat less carbs, we will burn up the fat we already carry and we will achieve weight loss. Although inviting, this theory is contentious, not all doctors agree and some think it is often risky. |
