Diet information


The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a nutrition and weight loss system initially invented by Barry Sears in a number of books, publications and an accompanying website. The Zone diet is not specifically a fat reduction diet, but many people believe that they really reduce body weight when following it.
The theory behind the Zone Diet is that if you control the secretion of two important hormones, (insulin and glucogen), then your body releases eicosanoids (anti-inflamatory chemicals) which, as a consequence puts your body in a balanced state that is much, much more healthy than it normally is, this is referred to as 'the zone'.
Sears states that if you get into this 'zone', your metabolism is perfectly balanced and, because of this, does not build up layers of fat.
The most important process of the system is to control the precise ratio of carbs to proteins, and to make sure your diet has increased amounts of Omega 3 fish oils.


The South Beach Diet
The South Beach diet is a diet plan started by Dr. arthur agatston which emphasizes that one should consume "good carbs" instead of "bad carbs" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats"
Doctor agatston developed this diet for people who have heart disease, as a consequence of his detailed analysis of scientific studies on other weight loss systems.
Approved foods include, veal cutlets, skinless poultry, shrimp, fat free cheese, peanuts, lowfat or nonfat milk and certain vegetables, like green beans, cucumbers 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
