Diet types


The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a diet primarily invented by Barry Sears in a series of books, publications and an associated web site. The Zone diet isn’t exactly a weight loss diet, however many people claim that they reduce body weight by following it.
The main scientific theory behind the Zone Diet is that if one can limit the amount of insulin and glucogen (two hormones), then your body releases eicosanoids which, in turn puts the body in a state of balance that is much, much more healthy than usual, which is known as the zone.
Sears claims that when your body is in this 'zone' it is perfectly balanced and, as a result, doesn't need to build up stores of fat.
The main procedure of the zone diet is to control the ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to ensure you get increased amounts of Omega 3 and omega 6.


The South Beach Diet
The South Beach diet is a diet system created by Dr. arthur agatston which stresses that one should consume "good carbs" instead of "bad carbs" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats"
Agatston invented his system for his cardiac patients, based on his analysis of scientific data on other weight loss regimes.
Good foods include, veal cutlets, turkey bacon, oysters, low or fat free cheeses, peanuts, lowfat yoghurt and some vegatables, such as black beans, cucumbers and mushrooms.

"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
