The Glycaemic Index Diet
The gi (or glycaemic index) weight loss regime is linked to the gi index, a list showing food types and a score representing the rapidity that the energy of the food gets converted to sugar in the dieters blood stream. The claim is that long-acting food types (ie those with a low Glycaemic index score), will keep you feeling full for longer and mean that you can take in fewer food without feeling hungry. It is also extremely beneficial for diabetes sufferers, as the low GI types of food are helpful in controlling surges in blood sugar secretion. The South Beach Diet The South Beach diet is a weight loss system invented by Miami-based cardiologist arthur agatston which encourages the consumption of "good carbs" instead of "bad carbohydrates" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats" Doctor agatston invented his weight loss regime as an aid to patients with heart conditions, as a consequence of his detailed study of scientific studies completed on other dietary studies. Examples of good foods include, lean cuts of beef, turkey breast, oysters, cottage cheese, peanut butter, lowfat milk and some vegatables, such as asparagus, broccoli and spinach. Super foods containing lycopene (includes water melon, papaya & cochinchin gourd) Lycopene is a non-synthetic compound used to color foods and a member of the same group of phytochemicals as carotene. It is the agent responsible for the deep red color of quite a few natural foods. Usefully, unlike many nutrients, lycopene does not become less effective if cooked but is in fact improved by the cooking process. . Its most important theraputic value is that it behaves as an antioxidant and appears to help to lower the probabilty of cancer. It is the strongest carotenoid quencher of singlet oxygen, which is associated with skin aging. It's also thought to prevent the development of atherosclerosis. |
