Diet Banana Cream Pie 3 Recipe brought to you by Diet Recipes To-Go
Weight loss systemsThe Zone Diet The Zone diet is a diet initially advocated by Barry Sears in a series of books, publications and an associated website. The Zone diet is not expressly a weight loss diet, nevertheless many followers believe that they really lose weight by following the zone diet. The main scientific theory behind the Zone Diet is that if you manage to gain control of the amount of insulin and glucogen (two hormones), then your body releases eicosanoids (anti-inflamatory chemicals) which, as a result puts one's body in a balanced state which is far more healthful than it normally is, known as the 'zone'. Sears holds the theory that when your body is in this 'zone' it is much more efficient and, as a result, doesn't need to build up stores of fat. The key process of the zone diet is to keep tight control over the exact ratio of carbs to proteins, and to ensure you get large amounts of Omega 3 fish oils. The South Beach Diet The South Beach diet is a diet created by Dr. arthur agatston, a cardiologist from miami, usa, which emphasizes that dieters should be eating "good carbs" instead of "bad carbohydrates" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats" Dr. agatston developed the south beach diet for his cardiac patients, as a result of his detailed study of scientific studies on other weight loss systems. "good" foods include, lean beef, chicken breast, seafood, fat-free cheeses, peanut butter, eggs and certain vegetables, such as asparagus, cauliflower and snow peas. The Atkins’ Diet Although it originated back in the 1960s, the atkins diet is still widely used today. Although highly controversial, it claims to allow weight reduction whilst allowing many foods that are not normally available to dieters, such as lamb and butter. On the atkins diet you are encouraged to eat meat and fat, it is the carbs that must be avoided. Because of this, it is known as a low carbohydrate, high protein, nutrition and weightloss 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 are still nutrient-rich unprocessed foods such as meat, fish and, as a result, poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and, as a result, olive oil. |
