Diet types


The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a diet primarily detailed by Barry Sears in a series of books, publications and an accompanying website. The Zone diet isn’t specifically a fat reduction diet, although many zone diet followers believe that they reduce a few pounds by following it.
The 'science' claimed for the Zone Diet is that if you can limit the secretion of the hormones 'insulin' and 'glucogen', then anti-inflammatory chemicals are released which puts your body in a balanced state which is more healthy than usual, which, not surprisingly, is known as 'the zone'.
Sears holds the theory that a body that is in 'the zone' is working at its best and, as a result, does not build up fat.
The key procedure of the zone diet is to monitor and control the precise ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to take large amounts of Omega 3 fish oils.


The Glycaemic Index Diet
The gi (or glycaemic index) nutrition system is reliant on the glycaemic index, a list showing types of food and an indicator of the rapidity that the carbohydrates in the food gets converted to glucose in the dieters body. The believe is that long-acting food types (ie those with a low Glycaemic score), keep you feeling full longer and help to eat less food without being miserabl;e.
It is also very beneficial for people with diabetes, as the low GI types of food are beneficial in minimizing increases in glucose secretion.


The Atkins’ Diet
Originating way back in the 1960s, the atkins diet is still one of the most popular diets today. Popular with many famous celebrities, it enables weight reduction but still allows you to eat many foods that would not be part of a normal diet, for example bacon and egg and cheese.
Unlike other diets, with the atkins diet you eat protein and fat, it is carbohydrates that need to be avoided. It is referred to as a high protein, low carb, diet.
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 this diet the foods you are encouraged to eat continues to be nutrient-rich unprocessed foods such as meat, fish and, as a result, poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and, as a consequence, olive oil.

The Atkins’ Diet Theory
The logic of the popular atkins diet is that even if our bodies use both fats and carbs to transform into carbohydrates, it is the carbs that are burned primarily. If we cut down on carbs, we will utilise our stored fat and we will lose weight. Although tempting, the atkins diet is contentious, not all doctors agree and some even hold that it is often hazardous.




The South Beach Diet
The South Beach diet is a diet system started by Miami-based cardiologist arthur agatston which emphasizes the consumption of "good carbs" instead of "bad carbohydrates" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats"
Doctor agatston developed his dietary regime for people who have heart disease, as a consequence of his analysis of scientific data on other nutritional studies.
Examples of good foods include, broiled ham, chicken breast, oysters, fat free cheese, pistachios, nonfat milk and some vegatables, like split peas, celery and spinach.

"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
