Diet information


The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a nutrition and weight loss system first detailed by Barry Sears in a series of books. The Zone diet isn’t distinctly a weight reduction diet, but many people find that they really manage to lose body weight when following it.
The supposed science behind the Zone Diet is that if you can control the amount of insulin and glucogen (two hormones), then anti-inflammatory chemicals are released which, as a result puts the body in a balanced state which is far more wholesome than it normally is, which followers of the diet, refer to as '"he zone".
Sears states that a body that is in 'the zone' is perfectly balanced and, as a consequence, doesn't convert energy to unsightly fat.
The key procedure of the diet is to maintain the ratio of carbs to proteins, and to ensure you get increased levels of Omega 6 and omega 3 fish oils.


The South Beach Diet
The South Beach diet is a diet invented by Dr. arthur agatston, a cardiologist from miami, usa, which emphasizes that dieters should eat "good carbohydrates" instead of "bad carbs" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats"
Dr. agatston developed his nutritional system as an aid to patients with heart conditions, as a result of his detailed analysis of scientific studies completed on other weight loss systems.
Examples of good foods include, lean cuts of beef, turkey breast, fish, parmesan cheese, almonds, eggs and certain vegetables, such as kidney beans, broccoli and turnips.


The Atkins’ Diet
Although it originated back in the 1960s, the popular atkins diet has been one of the most popular weight loss systms over the last few years. Having many well known film stars amongst its supporters, it supposedly allows weight reduction whilst still eating foods that are normally considered bad for diets, such as pork and hard cheeses.
With the atkins diet you are encouraged to eat meat and fat, it is the carbs that must be avoided. Because of this, it is known as a high protein, low carb, nutrition 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, with the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat are still nutrient-rich unprocessed foods such as meat, fish and, as a consequence, poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and, as a result, olive oil.

The Atkins’ Diet Theory
The theory of the atkins diet is that even if our bodies use both fats and carbohydrates to burn into glucose and energy, it is the carbs that are burned primarily. If we reduce your intake of carbohydrates, we will utilize the fat we already carry and we will lose weight. This theory is divisive, not all doctors are in agreement and many believe it can sometimes be hazardous.

"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
