Weight loss systemsThe Glycaemic Index Diet The gi index nutrition system is linked to the gi index, a list of food types and an indicator of the speed that the carbs of the food gets transformed to glucose in your body. The theory is that slow acting types of food (ie those with a low Gi score), keep you feeling full longer and mean that you can cut down on food without starving yourself. It is also especially beneficial for sufferers from diabetes, as the low GI foods are beneficial in minimizing increases in blood sugar levels. The South Beach Diet The South Beach diet is a diet plan invented by Miami-based cardiologist arthur agatston which emphasizes that dieters should be eating "good carbohydrates" instead of "bad carbs" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats" Agatston developed his dietary regime as an aid to patients with heart conditions, as a consequence of his detailed analysis of scientific studies on other diets. "good" foods include, lean beef, chicken breast, oysters, mozzarella cheese, peanuts, nonfat yoghurt and some vegatables, such as split peas, lettuce and spinach. The Atkins’ Diet First invented by doctor atkins in the 1960s, the atkins diet achieved most of its fame during the last decade. Although not accepted by all scientists, it supposedly allows fat reduction but still allows you to eat foods that are normally considered bad for diets, such as meat and hard cheeses. On the atkins diet you are supposed to eat fat and protein, avoiding carbohydrates almost completely. It is referred to as a low carbohydrate, high protein, diet. With this diet, the foods you should avoid are processed and refined sugar, milk, white bread, starchy vegetables, white rice and white flour, including cereals and pasta made from white flour. With this diet the foods you are encouraged to eat continues to be nutrient-rich unprocessed foods like meat, fish and, as a result, poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and olive oil. |
