Diet information


The South Beach Diet
The South Beach diet is a weight loss system invented by Cardiologist arthur agatston which encourages that one should consume "good carbs" instead of "bad carbohydrates" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats"
Doctor agatston developed his system as an aid to patients with heart conditions, as a result of his analysis of scientific research on other nutritional studies.
Examples of good foods include, veal cutlets, chicken breast, clams, fat free cheese, almonds, lowfat yoghurt and certain vegetables, like asparagus, cauliflower and sprouts.


The Glycaemic Index Diet
The glycaemic index diet is reliant on the gi index, a chart showing foods and a score illustrating the rapidity that the carbs in the food type gets changed to sugar in the dieters bloodstream. The theory is that slow release foods (ie with a low Gi number), keep you feeling full longer and mean that you can reduce your consumption of food without being miserabl;e.
It is also extremely effective for people with diabetes, as the low GI foods are helpful in controlling rises in blood sugar secretion.

"A good cook is the peculiar gift of the gods. He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate, from the palate to the finger's end.
"Walter Savage Landor"


"A diet is the penalty we pay for exceeding the feed limit."

"Reality check: you can never, ever, use weight loss to solve problems that are not related to your weight. At your goal weight or not, you still have to live with yourself and deal with your problems. You will still have the same husband, the same job, the same kids, and the same life. Losing weight is not a cure for life"
Phillip C. McGraw
