Superfoods containing carotenes (includes carrots, rose hip puree and sweet potatoes) These plants contain alpha and beta carotenes believed by doctors play a key role in minimising the risk of cancer, spefically cancer of the lungs and stomach. Many also help you lose weight, so make sure you add them to your weight loss program. The Zone Diet The Zone diet is a weight loss regime initially invented by Barry Sears in a series of books. The Zone diet is not specifically a fat reduction diet, although many people find that they really reduce weight by following the zone diet. The scientific theory behind the Zone Diet is that if you can control the amount of two important hormones, (insulin and glucogen), then your body releases eicosanoids which puts one's body in a state of equilibrium that is far more wholesome than other diets, which, not surprisingly, is known as 'the zone'. Sears claims that a body that is in 'the zone' is working at its best and, as a consequence, does not need to convert surplus energy to fat. The most important method of the diet is to control the ratio of carbs to proteins, and to make sure your diet has high levels of Omega 3 fish oils. |
