Weight loss dietsThe Glycaemic Index Diet The gi index nutrition system is based on the glycaemic index, a list showing types of food and a score illustrating the speed that the energy in the food type gets changed to sugar in the dieters blood stream. The believe is that slow release foods (ie those food types with a low Gi number), keep you feeling full longer and help to cut down on food without feeling you are always hungry. It's also extremely useful for people with diabetes, as the low GI food types are useful in reducing rises in blood glucose secretion. The Atkins’ Diet Now nearly 5 decades old, the atkins diet achieved most of its fame during the last decade. Popular with many famous celebrities, it claims to allow weight loss whilst allowing many foods that are not normally available to dieters, like meat and eggs. Unlike other diets, on the atkins diet you are supposed to eat fat and protein, it is the carbs that must be avoided. It is referred to as a low carbohydrate, high protein, nutrition 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. On the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat are still nutrient-rich unprocessed foods like meat, fish and, as a consequence, poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and, as a result, olive oil. The Atkins’ Diet Theory The theory of the famous atkins diet is that if we reduce your intake of carbs, our bodies will utilize the fat we have stored and we will reduce weight |
