Foods containing allyl sulfides
( includes garlic, chives and welsh onion) The onion range of vegetables is high in allyl sulfides, a chemical which experts believe might be linked to a reduced risk of stomach and colon cancer. Even though there is insufficient scientific proof obtainable, allyl sulfides are also believed to reduce symptoms with colds, arteriosclerosis and diabetes. Foods containing allyl sulfides are also good for weight loss, so make sure you add them to your weight loss regime. The Zone Diet The Zone diet is a weight loss program initially devised by Barry Sears in a series of books. The Zone diet is not particularly a weight loss diet, however many 'zone dieters' discover that they seem to lose body weight when following it. The main scientific theory behind the Zone Diet is that if one can manage to limit the levels of insulin and glucogen (both hormones), then anti-inflammatory chemicals are released which puts your body in a state of balance which is much, much more healthful than normal, known as the 'zone'. Sears states that when in the 'zone', your body is working at its most efficient and, because of this, doesn't build up layers of fat. The most important method of the zone system is to control the ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to ensure your diet has large amounts of Omega 3 fish oils. |
