Types of diet


The Glycaemic Index Diet
The glycaemic index nutrition and weight loss system is based around the glycaemic index, a list of types of food and a score representing the speed that the energy of the food gets transformed to glucose in the dieters body. The claim is that slow release foods (ie those foods with a low Gi score), keep you satiated for longer and help to reduce your consumption of food without being miserabl;e.
It is also very good for sufferers from diabetes, as the low GI types of food are useful in reducing increases in blood sugar levels.

"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
