Diet typesThe Glycaemic Index Diet The gi (or glycaemic index) nutrition and weightloss system is reliant on the gi index, a list showing types of food and a score representing the rapidity that the carbohydrates in the food type gets changed to sugar in your bloodstream. The theory is that slow acting foods (ie those food types with a low Glycaemic score), keep you satisfied for a longer period of time and help you to reduce your intake of food without craving snacks all the time. It's also extremely good for sufferers from diabetes, as the low GI food types are beneficial in controlling increases in blood glucose amount. The Zone Diet The Zone diet is a nutrition system initially created by Barry Sears in a series of books, publications and an associated website. The Zone diet is not exactly a fat reduction diet, however many zone diet followers believe that they really seem to lose weight by following the zone diet. The 'science' behind the Zone Diet is that if you control the secretion of insulin and glucogen (two hormones), then your body releases eicosanoids which, as a result puts the body in a state of balance which is more wholesome than it normally is, known as the 'zone'. Sears states that if you get into this 'zone', your metabolism is working at its best and, as a result, doesn't build up fat. The most important procedure of the system is to monitor and control the exact ratio of carbs to proteins, and to make sure your diet has increased levels of Omega 6 and omega 3 fish oils. |
