The Glycaemic Index Diet
The gi index weight loss program is linked to the glycaemic index, a list showing types of food and a score illustrating the ease with which the energy of the food type gets changed to glucose in your system. The claim is that slow acting foods (ie with a low Gi number), keep you feeling full longer and mean that you can injest less food without feeling you are always hungry. It is also very good for folk with diabetes, as the low GI food types are beneficial in reducing rises in blood glucose levels. Foods containing allyl sulfides ( includes pickled shallots, onions and spring onions) The onion and garlic family of foods is high in allyl sulphides, a chemical which experts believe might be linked to a reduced risk of stomach and colon cancer. Even though there is as yet, not enough hard medical proof obtainable, allyl sulphides are also thought by many experts to reduce problems with blood circulation, high blood pressure and insomnia. Foods containing allyl sulfides are also good for weight loss, so should be included in your weight loss program. |
