The Glycaemic Index Diet
The gi (or glycaemic index) diet system is linked to the gi index, a list showing types of food and a score representing the rapidity that the carbs of the food type gets transformed to glucose in the dieters blood stream. The theory is that long-acting types of food (ie with a low Glycaemic index score), will keep you feeling full for longer and help to consume fewer food without feeling hungry. It's also very useful for individuals with diabetes, as the low GI foods are helpful in controlling rises in blood sugar secretion.

Medical experts looking into the medical effects of flavonoids believe that they could also have numerous health benefits, including, but not limited to, anti-viral and antioxidant properties. Most are also good for weight loss, so are ideal for including in your weight loss regime. |
