Diet Grilled Oriental Shrimp Kabobs Recipe brought to you by Diet Recipes To-Go
Weight loss dietsThe Zone Diet The Zone diet is a nutrition system primarily invented by Barry Sears in a series of books, publications and an accompanying website. The Zone diet is not distinctly a fat reduction diet, but many zone diet followers claim that they reduce a few pounds when following it. The scientific theory behind the Zone Diet is that if you manage to gain control of the amount of two important hormones, (insulin and glucogen), then your body releases eicosanoids (anti-inflamatory chemicals) which, in turn puts one's body in a state of balance that is an awful lot more healthy than it normally is, which, not surprisingly, is known as 'the zone'. Sears states that when your body is in this 'zone' it is working at its most efficient and, because of this, does not build up fat. The most important procedure of the zone diet is to maintain the exact ratio of carbs to proteins, and to dose yourself with increased levels of Omega 3 and omega 6. The Atkins’ Diet Originating way back in the 1960s, the popular atkins diet is still one of the most popular diets today. Although not accepted by all scientists, it enables fat reduction whilst still eating many foods that are not normally available to dieters, eg pork and butter. With the atkins diet you are supposed to eat fat and protein, it is the carbs that must be avoided. It is often referred to as a low carb/high protein, nutrition and weightloss system. With this diet, the foods you should avoid are processed and refined sugar, milk, white bread, starchy vegetables, white rice and white flour, including cereals and pasta made from white flour. Unlike other diets, on the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat are still nutrient-rich unprocessed foods such as meat, fish and, as a consequence, poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and olive oil. |
