Types of diet


The Glycaemic Index Diet
The gi index nutrition and weight loss system is based around the glycaemic index, a list of food types and a score representing the ease with which the carbohydrates of the food type gets changed to glucose in the dieters body. The theory is that long-acting foods (ie those foods with a low Glycaemic index score), suppress your appetite for longer and help to cut down on food without starving yourself.
It is also extremely efficient for diabetes sufferers, as the low GI types of food are beneficial in controlling increases in glucose secretion.

"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
