Diet types The Atkins’ Diet First invented by doctor atkins in the 1960s, the atkins diet is still widely used today. Having many well known film stars amongst its supporters, it allows weight reduction whilst allowing foods that are normally considered bad for diets, eg beef and hard cheese. Unlike other diets, with the atkins diet you are encouraged to eat meat and fat, it is the carbs that are on the banned list. Because of this, it is known as a low carb/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 are still nutrient-rich unprocessed foods like meat, fish and, as a result, poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and, as a consequence, olive oil. The Atkins’ Diet Theory The 'science' behind the famous atkins diet is that even if our bodies use both fats and carbs to transform into glucose and energy, it is the carbs that are burned first. If we eat less carbohydrates, we will utilise our stored fat and we will reduce weight. This is the bit that is contentious, not all experts agree and a few think it might be dangerous. The Glycaemic Index Diet The gi (or glycaemic index) diet is linked to the glycaemic index, a list showing food types and an indicator of the speed with which the glucose in the food type gets changed to sugar in the dieters blood stream. The claim is that long-acting types of food (ie with a low Gi score), keep you feeling full longer and help you to reduce your intake of food without starving yourself. It's also very beneficial for sufferers from diabetes, as the low GI food types are useful in preventing surges in glucose amount.

"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
