Diet information


The South Beach Diet
The South Beach diet is a diet plan created by Cardiologist arthur agatston which stresses the consumption of "good carbohydrates" instead of "bad carbs" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats"
Dr. agatston invented his weight loss system for people who have cardiac problems, as a consequence of his analysis of scientific data on other diets.
"good" foods include, veal cutlets, skinless poultry, seafood, fat-free cheeses, pecan halves, nonfat yoghurt and certain vegetables, like black beans, lettuce and turnips.


The Glycaemic Index Diet
The gi index nutrition and weight loss system is based on the gi (or glycaemic index), a list showing food types and a score representing the speed that the carbs of the food type gets transformed to sugar in the dieters bloodstream. The theory is that slow acting foods (ie those food types with a low Glycaemic index score), keep you satisfied for a longer period of time and mean that you can reduce your consumption of food without craving snacks all the time.
It's also very efficient for individuals with diabetes, as the low GI foods are useful in controlling rises in glucose secretion.


The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a nutrition and weight loss system initially suggested by Barry Sears in a series of books, publications and an associated website. The Zone diet isn’t particularly a weight reduction diet, nevertheless many 'zone dieters' believe that they actually manage to lose weight when following it.
The main theory behind the Zone Diet is that if one can control the levels of two important hormones, (insulin and glucogen), then anti-inflammatory chemicals are released which puts your body in a state of equilibrium which is a lot more healthful than normal, this is referred to as 'the zone'.
Sears claims that if you get into this 'zone', your metabolism is working at its most efficient and, because of this, does not convert energy to unsightly fat.
The main procedure of the system is to keep tight control over the precise ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to make sure your diet has high levels of Omega 6 and omega 3 fish oils.

"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
