Diet typesThe Glycaemic Index Diet The gi index nutrition system is based around the gi index, a list of foods and a score illustrating the speed with which the carbohydrates of the food gets changed to sugar in your system. The believe is that slow release food types (ie with a low Glycaemic score), keep you feeling full longer and help to reduce your consumption of food without craving snacks all the time. It is also very beneficial for people with diabetes, as the low GI types of food are useful in managing increases in glucose amount. The Zone Diet The Zone diet is a diet first advocated by Barry Sears in a series of books, publications and an accompanying website. The Zone diet isn’t expressly a weight reduction diet, nevertheless many zone diet fans discover that they actually reduce body weight when following it. The main theory of the Zone Diet is that if one can gain control of the secretion of two important hormones, (insulin and glucogen), then anti-inflammatory chemicals are released which, as a result puts the body in a state of balance which is a lot more healthful than usual, known as the 'zone'. Sears holds the theory that when in the 'zone', your body is much more efficient and, as a consequence, doesn't build up fat. The most important method of the zone system is to keep tight control over the precise ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to take plenty of Omega 6 and omega 3 fish oils. The Atkins’ Diet Now nearly 5 decades old, the atkins diet achieved most of its fame during the last few years. Popular with many famous celebrities, it claims to allow fat reduction whilst encouraging you to eat many foods that would not be part of a normal diet, such as meat and hard cheese. On the atkins diet you are supposed to eat fat and protein, it is the carbs that are on the banned list. It is referred to as a low carbohydrate, 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. With 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. |
