The Glycaemic Index Diet
The gi index diet is linked to the glycaemic index, a chart showing food types and an indicator of the speed with which the carbohydrates in the food type gets changed to glucose in the dieters body. The claim is that slow acting types of food (ie those with a low Gi number), keep you satisfied for a longer period of time and help you to eat less food without feeling hungry. It is also very useful for individuals with diabetes, as the low GI types of food are beneficial in preventing increases in blood sugar amount. Flavonoid foods (inlcudes olive oil, spinach, garden pea & cayenne) The large family of compounds known as flavonoids which are present in these foods show promise as cancer fighters. Nutritionalists who have been studying the effects of flavonoids think that they may well have numerous health giving properties, including, but not limited to, anti-candida and anti-platelet properties. Many are also good for weight loss, so make sure you add them to your weight loss regime. |
