Flavonoid superfoods (inlcudes dark chocolate, asparagus, lima bean and tea) The nutrients known as flavonoids present in these fruit, vegetables and pulses are believed to be good as anti-carcinogens. Researchers looking into the nutritional effects of flavonoids believe that they may also have most other health giving properties, amongst them, anti-dermatitis and antitumor capabilities. A good number are also low in calories, so are ideal for including in your diet system. Foods containing lycopene (includes watermelon, red peppers and spiny bitter gourd) Lycopene is a natural pigment and part of the carotenid family. This chemical is responsible for the deep red colour of quite a few natural foods. Fortunately, unlike most other nutrients, lycopene is not damaged if it is cooked, but is noticeably increased in efficacy by being heated. . Its key benefit is that it behaves as an antioxidant and seems to help lower the chances of cancer. This useful phytochemical is the most efficacious eliminator of singlet oxygen, which is connected with skin aging. It is also thought to block the development of atherosclerosis. The Zone Diet The Zone diet is a weight loss regime first invented by Barry Sears in a number of books. The Zone diet isn’t distinctly a fat reduction diet, although some people believe that they actually lose a few pounds by following this system. The main scientific theory behind the Zone Diet is that if one can manage to control the amount of insulin and glucogen (both hormones), then your body releases eicosanoids (anti-inflamatory chemicals) which, in turn puts your body in a balanced state which is far more healthy than it normally is, which, not surprisingly, is known as 'the zone'. Sears holds the theory that when in the 'zone', your body is much more efficient and, as a result, doesn't need to build up stores of fat. The main method of the system is to control the ratio of carbs to proteins, and to ensure your diet has plenty of Omega 6 and omega 3 fish oils. |
