Diet informationThe Glycaemic Index Diet The glycaemic index nutrition and weight loss system is reliant on the gi (or glycaemic index), a list of foods and a score illustrating the ease that the carbohydrates of the food type gets changed to glucose in your body. The theory is that slow acting food types (ie those with a low Glycaemic score), keep you feeling full longer and help to reduce your consumption of food without feeling hungry. It is also extremeley effective for individuals with diabetes, as the low GI foods are beneficial in reducing rises in glucose secretion. The Zone Diet The Zone diet is a diet initially created by Barry Sears in a series of books, publications and an associated website. The Zone diet is not specifically a weight loss diet, however some people claim that they really manage to lose body weight by following this system. The 'science' behind the Zone Diet is that if you manage to gain control of the amount of two important hormones, (insulin and glucogen), then your body releases eicosanoids (anti-inflamatory chemicals) which, as a consequence puts one's body in a state of balance which is more healthy than other diets, which, not surprisingly, is known as 'the zone'. Sears holds the theory that if you get into this 'zone', your body is working at its best and, as a consequence, doesn't need to convert surplus energy to fat. The key procedure of the system is to monitor and control the ratio of carbs to proteins, and to ensure your diet has plenty of Omega 3 fish oils. The Atkins’ Diet Developed by dr. robert atkins in the 1960s, the atkins diet is still widely used today. Having many well known film stars amongst its supporters, it allows fat reduction whilst allowing many of the foods you love, such as fatty meat and butter. With this diet it is considered good to eat fat and protein, it is the carbs that are on the banned list. Because of this, it is known as a low carbohydrate, high protein, nutrition and weight loss 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. Unlike other diets, on the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat are nutrient-rich unprocessed foods like meat, fish and, as a consequence, poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and, as a consequence, olive oil. The Atkins’ Diet Theory The theory of the famous atkins diet is that if we cut down on carbs, our bodies will use our stored fat and we will reduce weight |
