Diet Oatmeal Bran Bread Recipe brought to you by Diet Recipes To-Go
Types of dietThe Atkins’ Diet First invented by doctor atkins in the sixities, the atkins diet has been one of the most popular weight loss systems over the last few years. Having many well known film stars amongst its supporters, it enables weight loss whilst encouraging you to eat many foods that are not normally available to dieters, such as lamb and eggs. On the atkins diet it is considered good to eat fat and protein, it is the carbs that are on the banned list. Because of this, it is known as a low carbohydrate/high protein, nutrition 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 nutrient-rich unprocessed foods such as meat, fish and, as a consequence, poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and, as a result, olive oil. The Zone Diet The Zone diet is a diet first created by Barry Sears in a number of books, publications and an associated web site. The Zone diet isn’t exactly a weight loss diet, however many zone diet fans believe that they actually manage to lose body weight when following it. The science claimed for the Zone Diet is that if you manage to gain control of the secretion of insulin and glucogen (two hormones produced naturally by your body), then your body releases eicosanoids (anti-inflamatory chemicals) which, in turn puts the body in a balanced state which is a lot more healthy than usual, which, not surprisingly, is known as 'the zone'. Sears holds the theory that when in the 'zone', your body is perfectly balanced and, because of this, doesn't build up fat. The main method of the zone diet is to keep tight control over the precise ratio of carbs to proteins, and to dose yourself with increased levels of Omega 6 and omega 3 fish oils. The Glycaemic Index Diet The glycaemic index diet is based around the glycaemic index, a chart showing food types and an indicator of the ease that the carbs of the food type gets changed to glucose in the dieters body. The believe is that slow release food types (ie with a low Gi number), keep you satisfied for a longer period of time and help you to eat less food without feeling you are always hungry. It is also extremely beneficial for individuals with diabetes, as the low GI foods are useful in reducing increases in blood sugar amount. |
