The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a weight loss regime initially suggested by Barry Sears in a number of books, publications and an associated website. The Zone diet is not exactly a fat reduction diet, but many followers find that they really seem to lose a few pounds by following it.
The main scientific theory behind the Zone Diet is that if you gain control of the amount of two important hormones, (insulin and glucogen), then your body releases eicosanoids which, as a consequence puts your body in a balanced state that is far more healthful than it normally is, which is known as the zone.
Sears states that a body that is in 'the zone' is working at its best and, as a result, doesn't build up fat.
The most important technique of the diet is to maintain the exact ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to make sure your diet has plenty of Omega 3 and omega 6.


The Glycaemic Index Diet
The glycaemic index diet system is based on the gi (or glycaemic index), a list showing foods and a score illustrating the ease with which the energy in the food gets transformed to glucose in the dieters body. The claim is that long-acting foods (ie those with a low Glycaemic score), will keep you feeling full for longer and help you to eat less food without feeling hungry.
It is also extremely beneficial for diabetes sufferers, as the low GI food types are useful in reducing rises in blood glucose amount.


Healthy foods with carotenes
(includes carrots, collard greens and sweet potatoes)
These orange and green plants contain carotenes (alpha and beta) believed be a key nutrient in minimizing the chances of contracting, particularly cancers of the lung, esophagus and stomach. Most are low in calories, so should be a part of every diet system.

"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
