Types of dietThe Zone Diet The Zone diet is a nutrition system primarily detailed by Barry Sears in a number of books, publications and an associated web site. The Zone diet is not specifically a fat reduction diet, nevertheless many followers believe that they actually manage to lose weight by following this system. The theory behind the Zone Diet is that if you manage to limit the amount of two key hormones, (insulin and glucogen), then your body releases eicosanoids (anti-inflamatory chemicals) which, as a result puts one's body in a state of balance that is more wholesome than usual, this is referred to as 'the zone'. Sears states that when in the 'zone', your body is working at its best and, as a result, does not build up fat. The main technique of the zone diet is to monitor and control the ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to ensure you get increased amounts of Omega 3 and omega 6. The Atkins’ Diet First invented by doctor atkins in the 1960s, the atkins diet has been one of the most popular weight loss systms over the last few years. Popular with many famous celebrities, it claims to allow fat reduction whilst still eating many foods that would not be part of a normal diet, like lamb and some dairy produce. On the atkins diet you are supposed to eat fat and protein, it is the carbs that must be avoided. It is often referred to as a low carb/high protein, nutrition system. 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 are still nutrient-rich unprocessed foods like meat, fish and, as a consequence, poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and, as a consequence, olive oil. The Atkins’ Diet Theory The theory of the atkins diet is that if we eat less carbohydrates, we will utilise the fat we have stored and we will reduce weight The Glycaemic Index Diet The gi (or glycaemic index) diet is linked to the glycaemic index, a list showing foods and a score representing the speed that the carbohydrates of the food gets converted to glucose in your blood stream. The claim is that slow acting foods (ie with a low Gi score), keep you satiated for longer and mean that you can eat less food without feeling hungry. It is also extremely good for diabetes sufferers, as the low GI types of food are beneficial in managing surges in glucose amount. |
