The Glycaemic Index Diet
The gi index weight loss regime is based around the glycaemic index, a list of foods and a score representing the rapidity with which the glucose of the food type gets changed to glucose in the dieters system. The theory is that long-acting foods (ie with a low Gi score), suppress your appetite for longer and help you to eat fewer food without feeling you are missing out. It is also very useful for sufferers from diabetes, as the low GI foods are useful in minimizing increases in blood glucose levels. The Zone Diet The Zone diet is a diet primarily created by Barry Sears in a series of books, publications and an associated website. The Zone diet isn’t expressly a weight loss diet, but many zone diet fans discover that they really reduce a few pounds when following it. The science behind the Zone Diet is that if one can gain control of the amount of two key hormones, (insulin and glucogen), then your body releases eicosanoids (anti-inflamatory chemicals) which, in turn puts the body in a state of equilibrium which is much more healthy than it normally is, which is known as the zone. Sears holds the theory that when your body is in this 'zone' it is working at its best and, because of this, doesn't build up layers of fat. The most valuable method of the diet is to maintain the exact ratio of carbs to proteins, and to make sure your diet has plenty of Omega 3 and omega 6. Healthy foods with carotenes (includes carrots, rose hip puree and tomato ketchup) These foods contain carotenes (alpha and beta) believed by doctors to play a major part in helping prevent cancer, specifically those cancers involving the stomach and lesophagus. Many also help you lose weight, so should be included in every diet system. |
