Low calorie diet
In simple terms, a low calorie weight loss regime is based on the fact that if you want to get rid of some fat, it is important to eat fewer calories than your body requires. The calorie defined? The calorie is a unit for measuring food's ability to produce heat and energy. A calorie is the the amount of energy required to raise one cubic centimeter of water by one degree centigrade. If something has more calories, then it will turn into more energy to use when consumed. Low-cal foods include brussels sprouts, cucumbers, grapefruit, canadian bacon, and eggs. The Glycaemic Index Diet The glycaemic index diet system is based on the gi (or glycaemic index), a list of types of food and a score illustrating the ease that the glucose of the food type gets converted to glucose in the dieters blood stream. The believe is that slow acting foods (ie those food types with a low Glycaemic index score), keep you satiated for longer and help to consume fewer food without feeling hungry. It is also especially beneficial for diabetes sufferers, as the low GI food types are useful in minimizing surges in blood sugar levels. Foods containing allyl sulfides ( includes garlic, onions and green onion) The onion, leek and garlic family of vegetables is high in allyl sulfides, a chemical which experts believe might be linked to a reduced risk of stomach and colon cancer. Although there is not much hard medical proof obtainable, allyl sulphides are also believed to help with colds, sterilization and insomnia.
