The Glycaemic Index Diet The gi index weight loss program is based around the gi (or glycaemic index), a list of types of food and a score illustrating the ease that the carbs of the food type gets converted to sugar in the dieters system. The theory is that slow acting foods (ie those food types with a low Glycaemic score), suppress your appetite and help to take in less food without feeling hungry. It's also extremeley useful for diabetics, as the low GI food types are beneficial in controlling rises in blood sugar secretion. Flavonoid superfoods (inlcudes citrus fruits, asparagus, soya beans & chamomile) The large family of compounds known as flavonoids present in these foods show promise as anti-carcinogens. Experts studying the nutritional effects of flavonoids think they might also have many health benefits, including, but not limited to, anti-candida and anti-platelet capabilities. Many are also low in calories, so should be included in your weight loss program.

"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
