Diet types


The Glycaemic Index Diet
The gi index nutrition system is based around the gi (or glycaemic index), a list showing food types and a score illustrating the ease that the carbohydrates in the food gets converted to glucose in your bloodstream. The claim is that long-acting foods (ie those foods with a low Glycaemic index score), suppress your appetite and help to cut down on food without feeling you are always hungry.
It is also very beneficial for individuals with diabetes, as the low GI types of food are helpful in managing surges in glucose amount.

"A good cook is the peculiar gift of the gods. He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate, from the palate to the finger's end.
"Walter Savage Landor"


"A diet is the penalty we pay for exceeding the feed limit."

"Reality check: you can never, ever, use weight loss to solve problems that are not related to your weight. At your goal weight or not, you still have to live with yourself and deal with your problems. You will still have the same husband, the same job, the same kids, and the same life. Losing weight is not a cure for life"
Phillip C. McGraw
