Diet types


The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a nutrition and weight loss system initially suggested by Barry Sears in a number of books, publications and an associated web site. The Zone diet isn’t specifically a fat reduction diet, but some people believe that they manage to lose weight by following this system.
The science behind the Zone Diet is that if one can manage to limit the levels of two key hormones, (insulin and glucogen), then your body releases eicosanoids which, in turn puts one's body in a state of balance that is much, much more wholesome than usual, which followers of the diet, refer to as '"he zone".
Sears believes that when your body is in this 'zone' it is perfectly balanced and, as a result, does not need to build up stores of fat.
The key technique of the zone system is to keep tight control over the ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to make sure your diet has increased amounts of Omega 6 and omega 3 fish oils.


The Glycaemic Index Diet
The gi (or glycaemic index) nutrition system is based around the glycaemic index, a chart showing foods and an indicator of the ease that the carbohydrates in the food type gets changed to sugar in the dieters blood stream. The claim is that long-acting types of food (ie those foods with a low Glycaemic index score), suppress your appetite and help to cut down on food without feeling you are missing out.
It's also extremely effective for individuals with diabetes, as the low GI foods are useful in minimizing surges in blood glucose secretion.

"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
