Diet Red Beans And Rice Recipe brought to you by Diet Recipes To-Go
Weight loss dietsThe South Beach Diet The South Beach diet is a diet system started by Cardiologist arthur agatston which emphasizes that one should eat "good carbs" instead of "bad carbohydrates" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats" Agatston developed his nutritional system for people who have heart disease, as a consequence of his analysis of scientific studies on other weight loss regimes. Approved foods include, lean cuts of beef, turkey bacon, fish, cottage cheese, almonds, eggs and certain vegetables, such as lentils, lettuce and water chestnuts. The Atkins’ Diet Developed by dr. robert atkins in the 1960s, the popular atkins diet achieved most of its fame during the last decade. Although not accepted by all scientists, it enables weight reduction whilst allowing many foods that would not be part of a normal diet, like meat and egg and cheese. On the atkins diet you are encouraged to eat meat and fat, it is the carbs that must be avoided. Because of this, it is known as a low carbohydrate, high protein, nutrition and weight loss 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. Unlike other diets, on the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat continues to be nutrient-rich unprocessed foods such as meat, fish and, as a result, poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and, as a result, olive oil. The Atkins’ Diet Theory The logic behind the famous atkins diet is that even though our bodies use both fats and carbs to burn into glucose and energy, it is the carbs which are burned primarily. If we eat less carbohydrates, our bodies will deplete the fat we have stored and we will lose weight. Although inviting, this theory is controversial, not all specialists are in agreement and a few feel it can be unsafe. |
