Types of dietThe Atkins’ Diet First invented by doctor atkins in the sixities, the atkins diet is still widely used today. Having many well known film stars amongst its supporters, it enables fat reduction whilst encouraging you to eat many of the foods you love, like lamb and hard cheese. Unlike other diets, with the atkins diet you are supposed to eat fat and protein, it is the carbs that must be avoided. It is referred to as a high protein, low carb, 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 the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat are nutrient-rich unprocessed foods such as meat, fish and, as a result, poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and olive oil. The Zone Diet The Zone diet is a diet primarily suggested by Barry Sears in a series of books and publications. The Zone diet is not specifically a weight reduction diet, nevertheless many followers claim that they really manage to lose body weight by following this system. The science claimed for the Zone Diet is that if you can gain control of the secretion of insulin and glucogen (two hormones), then your body releases eicosanoids which, in turn puts your body in a state of balance that is an awful lot more healthy than it normally is, which is known as the zone. Sears believes that a body that is in 'the zone' is working at its most efficient and, as a consequence, does not need to build up stores of fat. The most important procedure of the zone diet is to maintain the exact ratio of carbs to proteins, and to dose yourself with large amounts of Omega 3 and omega 6. The South Beach Diet The South Beach diet is a diet started by Dr. arthur agatston, a cardiologist from miami, usa, which emphasizes the consumption of "good carbs" instead of "bad carbs" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats" Doctor agatston invented this diet for his cardiac patients, as a consequence of his analysis of scientific data on other weight loss studies. "good" foods include, lean cuts of beef, turkey bacon, shellfish, cottage cheese, almonds, lowfat milk and certain vegetables, such as kidney beans, eggplant and sprouts. |
