Diet typesThe Zone Diet The Zone diet is a nutrition and weightloss system primarily suggested by Barry Sears in a number of books. The Zone diet isn’t distinctly a weight reduction diet, nevertheless many zone diet fans discover that they lose body weight by following the zone diet. The main theory of the Zone Diet is that if you can gain control of the secretion of insulin and glucogen (two hormones produced naturally by your body), then your body releases eicosanoids (anti-inflamatory chemicals) which, in turn puts the body in a state of balance which is more wholesome than other diets, known as the 'zone'. Sears states that when in the 'zone', your body is working at its most efficient and, as a consequence, does not build up layers of fat. The most important technique of the zone diet is to maintain the exact ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to ensure your diet has high levels of Omega 3 fish oils. The South Beach Diet The South Beach diet is a diet started by Miami-based cardiologist arthur agatston which encourages that one should consume "good carbs" instead of "bad carbs" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats" Doctor agatston developed his system for people who have heart disease, as a consequence of his analysis of scientific data on other weight loss systems. "good" foods include, canadian bacon, skinless poultry, fish and shellfish, mozzarella cheese, pistachios, lowfat yoghurt and certain vegetables, such as asparagus, broccoli and water chestnuts. |
