The brassicas, Healthy superfoods that aid Dieting (examples: Kale, Fresh green beans, Collard greens and Napa) Members of the brassica family are jam-packed with vitamins (folate and vitamin c), minerals (eg. potassium and selenium), fibre, chlorophyll, antioxidents, and indole-3-carbinol. Over and above their numerous other health and diet benefits, the minerals and nutrients in these are believed by doctors to help reduce the cancer risk. The Zone Diet The Zone diet is a diet system first detailed by Barry Sears in a series of books. The Zone diet isn’t exactly a weight loss diet, however many people believe that they really manage to lose a few pounds by following this system. The theory behind the Zone Diet is that if you control the levels of insulin and glucogen (two hormones), then anti-inflammatory chemicals are released which puts one's body in a state of equilibrium which is more wholesome than it normally is, which is known as the zone. Sears claims that when your body is in this 'zone' it is much more efficient and, as a result, does not build up layers of fat. The key method of the zone system is to control the ratio of carbs to proteins, and to take high levels of Omega 3 and omega 6. |
