Weight loss dietsThe Glycaemic Index Diet The glycaemic index nutrition system is based around the gi (or glycaemic index), a chart showing foods and an indicator of the rapidity with which the glucose and energy of the food type gets changed to sugar in the dieters blood stream. The theory is that slow acting types of food (ie with a low Gi score), keep you satiated for longer and help you to reduce your intake of food without feeling you are always hungry. It's also especially beneficial for diabetics, as the low GI food types are useful in reducing increases in glucose secretion. The Zone Diet The Zone diet is a nutrition and weightloss system initially devised by Barry Sears in a series of books, publications and an accompanying website. The Zone diet is not particularly a fat reduction diet, however many zone diet fans believe that they actually reduce weight by following it. The main scientific theory behind the Zone Diet is that if you can gain control of the secretion of insulin and glucogen (two hormones produced naturally by your body), then anti-inflammatory chemicals are released which, as a consequence puts the body in a balanced state which is much, much more wholesome than other diets, which is known as the zone. Sears states that if you get into this 'zone', your body is perfectly balanced and, as a consequence, doesn't build up layers of fat. The most important procedure of the zone diet is to control the ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to make sure your diet has high levels of Omega 6 and omega 3 fish oils. The South Beach Diet The South Beach diet is a diet plan started by Miami-based cardiologist arthur agatston which stresses that dieters should eat "good carbohydrates" instead of "bad carbohydrates" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats" Dr. agatston developed his nutritional system for people who have cardiac problems, based on his detailed analysis of scientific data completed on other dietary studies. "good" foods include, canadian bacon, turkey bacon, oysters, fat free cheese, peanuts, nonfat yoghurt and some vegatables, like asparagus, broccoli and sprouts. |
