The South Beach Diet
The South Beach diet is a weight loss system created by Miami-based cardiologist arthur agatston which stresses that one should eat "good carbs" instead of "bad carbohydrates" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats" Doctor agatston invented his weight loss system for people who have cardiac problems, as a consequence of his detailed analysis of scientific research on other weight loss systems. Good foods include, lean cuts of beef, turkey breast, seafood, parmesan cheese, pistachios, lowfat or nonfat milk and certain vegetables, such as split peas, lettuce and sprouts. The Glycaemic Index Diet The glycaemic index diet system is based on the gi (or glycaemic index), a list showing types of food and a score representing the rapidity with which the carbohydrates of the food type gets transformed to glucose in your bloodstream. The theory is that slow acting foods (ie those with a low Gi score), will keep you feeling full for longer and mean that you can consume less food without feeling you are missing out. It's also extremely beneficial for sufferers from diabetes, as the low GI types of food are beneficial in reducing surges in blood glucose secretion. Cruciferous vegetables, Tasty superfoods that aid Weight loss (eg. Arugula, Green beans, Turnips and Horseradish) Vegetablesi in the brassica family are jam-packed with vitamins (eg.folate and vit c), minerals (eg. selenium), chlorophyll, fibre, indole-3-carbinol and isothiocyanates.. In addition to their most other great health giving properties, the vitamins and nutrients in these are thought by experts to significantly lower the risk of getting cancer. |
