The low calorie diet
Rather obviously, the low-cal diet is based on the fact that if you are going to lose weight, it is important to injest less calories than you use. The calorie defined? The calorie is the unit used for measuring the amount of energy in food. A food calorie is the the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree centigrade at atmospheric pressure. If something has higher calories, then it will turn into a larger amount of energy when your body converts it. Low calorie foods include watercress, cucumbers, apricots, ground turkey, and low-fat cheese. The Atkins’ Diet Originating way 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 weight reduction whilst still eating foods that are normally considered bad for diets, such as bacon and hard cheese. With this diet you are supposed to eat fat and protein, it is the carbs that must be avoided. Because of this, it is known as a high protein, low carb, weight loss program. With this diet, the foods you should avoid are processed and refined sugar, milk, white bread, starchy vegetables, white rice and white flour, amongst them, cereals and pasta made from white flour. Unlike other diets, on the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat continues to be nutrient-rich unprocessed foods such as meat, fish & poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter & olive oil.
