Diet typesThe Zone Diet The Zone diet is a nutrition system primarily devised by Barry Sears in a number of books, publications and an associated web site. The Zone diet is not expressly a fat reduction diet, nevertheless many 'zone dieters' claim that they really manage to lose weight by following the zone diet. The science claimed for the Zone Diet is that if one can limit the secretion of two important hormones, (insulin and glucogen), then your body releases eicosanoids which, as a result puts your body in a balanced state that is far more wholesome than usual, which is known as the zone. Sears alleges that a body that is in 'the zone' is much more efficient and, as a result, doesn't build up layers of fat. The key technique of the diet is to control the precise ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to make sure your diet has plenty of Omega 6 and omega 3 fish oils. The South Beach Diet The South Beach diet is a diet started by Cardiologist arthur agatston which stresses that one should consume "good carbs" instead of "bad carbohydrates" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats" Agatston invented his weight loss system for people who have heart disease, as a consequence of his analysis of scientific studies completed on other dietary studies. Examples of good foods include, lean cuts of beef, chicken breast, shellfish, cottage cheese, peanut butter, eggs and some vegatables, like artichokes, cauliflower and sprouts. |
