Weight loss diets


The 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.

"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
