Diet typesThe Atkins’ Diet Although it originated back in the 1960s, the atkins diet has been one of the most popular weight loss systems over the last few years. Having many well known film stars amongst its supporters, it supposedly allows fat reduction whilst allowing many foods that are not normally available to dieters, eg pork and hard cheese. On the atkins diet you are supposed to eat fat and protein, it is the carbs that must be avoided. Because of this, it is known as a low carbohydrate/high protein, nutrition and weight loss 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. On the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat are nutrient-rich unprocessed foods like meat, fish and poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and olive oil. The Zone Diet The Zone diet is a nutrition system primarily devised by Barry Sears in a number of books, publications and an associated website. The Zone diet is not particularly a weight loss diet, however many zone diet fans discover that they actually reduce a few pounds by following this system. The scientific theory behind the Zone Diet is that if one can manage to limit the levels of two key hormones, (insulin and glucogen), then anti-inflammatory chemicals are released which, as a consequence puts the body in a state of balance which is far more wholesome than normal, 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 need to build up stores of fat. The most important procedure of the zone system is to maintain the exact ratio of carbs to proteins, and to make sure your diet has large amounts of Omega 3 and omega 6. The Glycaemic Index Diet The glycaemic index nutrition and weightloss system is linked to the gi index, a chart showing types of food and a score illustrating the speed with which the carbs of the food type gets converted to glucose in the dieters system. The believe is that long-acting food types (ie with a low Gi score), will keep you feeling full for longer and mean that you can eat less food without feeling you are missing out. It's also extremeley effective for people with diabetes, as the low GI types of food are helpful in preventing surges in blood sugar amount. |
