Types of dietThe Glycaemic Index Diet The gi (or glycaemic index) nutrition and weightloss system is based on the glycaemic index, a chart showing food types and a score representing the ease with which the carbohydrates in the food gets converted to glucose in the dieters bloodstream. The theory is that slow release food types (ie with a low Gi score), keep you feeling full longer and mean that you can reduce your consumption of food without craving snacks all the time. It's also very efficient for individuals with diabetes, as the low GI food types are helpful in controlling increases in glucose levels. The Atkins’ Diet Originating way back in the 1960s, the atkins diet has been one of the most popular weight loss systems over the last few years. Although not accepted by all scientists, it allows weight loss whilst encouraging you to eat many foods that would not be part of a normal diet, like pork and butter. Unlike other diets, with the atkins diet it is considered good to eat fat and protein, it is carbohydrates that need to be avoided. Because of this, it is known as a low carb/high protein, diet. 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 nutrient-rich unprocessed foods such as meat, fish and poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and olive oil. The Atkins’ Diet Theory The 'science' behind the popular atkins diet is that if we reduce your intake of carbohydrates, we will burn up the fat we already carry and we will achieve weight loss |
