Types of dietThe Glycaemic Index Diet The gi (or glycaemic index) nutrition system is linked to the glycaemic index, a list of types of food and an indicator of the ease that the glucose and energy of the food type gets transformed to glucose in the dieters system. The theory is that slow acting food types (ie those food types with a low Gi score), will keep you feeling full for longer and mean that you can reduce your intake of food without feeling you are missing out. It's also very beneficial for folk with diabetes, as the low GI foods are useful in reducing rises in glucose secretion. The Zone Diet The Zone diet is a nutrition and weightloss system first invented by Barry Sears in a number of books and publications. The Zone diet isn’t particularly a fat reduction diet, but many zone diet fans believe that they really manage to lose weight by following it. The science behind the Zone Diet is that if you control the levels of two key hormones, (insulin and glucogen), then anti-inflammatory chemicals are released which, in turn puts the body in a balanced state which is much, much more wholesome than usual, which followers of the diet, refer to as '"he zone". Sears believes that a body that is in 'the zone' is much more efficient and, as a result, doesn't build up layers of fat. The main technique of the system is to monitor and control the ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to make sure your diet has plenty of Omega 3 fish oils. |
