Diet typesThe South Beach Diet The South Beach diet is a diet system started by Cardiologist arthur agatston which encourages that one should eat "good carbs" instead of "bad carbohydrates" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats" Doctor agatston developed his dietary regime for his cardiac patients, as a result of his analysis of scientific studies completed on other dietary studies. Approved foods include, canadian bacon, chicken breast, fish, cottage cheese, pistachios, lowfat milk and certain vegetables, like butter beans, cucumbers and water chestnuts. The Atkins’ Diet Originating way back in the 1960s, the popular atkins diet achieved most of its fame during the last few years. Although highly controversial, it allows fat reduction whilst encouraging you to eat many of the foods you love, eg beef and some dairy produce. With this diet you eat protein and fat, it is carbohydrates that need to be avoided. Because of this, it is known as a high protein, low carb, 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. With the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat are still nutrient-rich unprocessed foods like meat, fish and poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and olive oil. The Zone Diet The Zone diet is a nutrition system initially advocated by Barry Sears in a number of books, publications and an associated website. The Zone diet isn’t expressly a weight reduction diet, nevertheless many 'zone dieters' find that they actually manage to lose weight when following it. The supposed science behind the Zone Diet is that if you control the secretion of two key hormones, (insulin and glucogen), then your body releases eicosanoids (anti-inflamatory chemicals) which, as a result puts one's body in a state of balance that is more wholesome than usual, which, not surprisingly, is known as 'the zone'. Sears claims that when in the 'zone', your body is working at its most efficient and, because of this, does not need to convert surplus energy to fat. The key process of the system is to monitor and control the exact ratio of carbs to proteins, and to ensure you get high levels of Omega 6 and omega 3 fish oils. |
