Diet Lemon Tea Loaf Recipe brought to you by Diet Recipes To-Go
Weight loss systemsThe Atkins’ Diet Now nearly 5 decades old, the atkins diet is still one of the most popular diets today. Although highly controversial, it claims to allow fat reduction whilst still eating foods that are normally considered bad for diets, for example meat and hard cheeses. With this diet it is considered good 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 this diet the foods you are encouraged to eat are still nutrient-rich unprocessed foods like meat, fish and, as a result, poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and, as a consequence, olive oil. The Zone Diet The Zone diet is a nutrition and weightloss system initially created by Barry Sears in a series of books and publications. The Zone diet isn’t specifically a fat reduction diet, although many zone diet followers discover that they seem to lose body weight by following the zone diet. The main theory of the Zone Diet is that if you limit the secretion of insulin and glucogen (two hormones), then your body releases eicosanoids (anti-inflamatory chemicals) which puts the body in a balanced state that is far more healthful than normal, this is referred to as 'the zone'. Sears alleges that if you get into this 'zone', your metabolism is much more efficient and, as a consequence, doesn't build up fat. The key procedure of the zone diet is to monitor and control the exact ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to make sure your diet has large amounts of Omega 3 fish oils. |
