Diet information


The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a nutrition system primarily invented by Barry Sears in a series of books, publications and an associated website. The Zone diet is not expressly a weight loss diet, but many zone diet followers discover that they actually reduce a few pounds by following this system.
The science behind the Zone Diet is that if one can limit the amount of insulin and glucogen (two hormones), then anti-inflammatory chemicals are released which, as a result puts one's body in a state of equilibrium that is much more healthful than it normally is, known as the 'zone'.
Sears holds the theory that if you get into this 'zone', your body is perfectly balanced and, as a consequence, does not need to build up stores of fat.
The key process of the diet is to control the exact ratio of carbs to proteins, and to make sure your diet has large amounts of Omega 3 and omega 6.


The Glycaemic Index Diet
The gi (or glycaemic index) nutrition system is reliant on the gi index, a list showing types of food and a score representing the rapidity with which the carbs in the food type gets transformed to sugar in the dieters body. The believe is that slow release types of food (ie with a low Glycaemic score), suppress your appetite for longer and help to reduce your intake of food without starving yourself.
It is also very good for individuals with diabetes, as the low GI food types are beneficial in preventing rises in blood glucose amount.


The South Beach Diet
The South Beach diet is a diet plan started by Miami-based cardiologist arthur agatston which emphasizes that dieters should eat "good carbs" instead of "bad carbs" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats"
Dr. agatston developed his weight loss system for people who have heart disease, based on his detailed study of scientific data on other weight loss systems.
Good foods include, canadian bacon, turkey bacon, oysters, feta cheese, pecan halves, eggs and some vegatables, such as butter beans, lettuce and mushrooms.

"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
