Diet Shredded Wheat Snack Mix Recipe brought to you by Diet Recipes To-Go
Diet informationThe Atkins’ Diet Developed by dr. robert atkins in the 1960s, the famous atkins diet achieved most of its fame during the last decade. Although not accepted by all scientists, it allows fat reduction whilst encouraging you to eat many of the foods you love, eg meat and hard cheese. With this diet you eat protein and fat, it is carbohydrates that need to be avoided. It is referred to as a high protein, low carb, diet. 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. With the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat are 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 'science' behind the atkins diet is that if we cut down on carbohydrates, we will use up the fat we have stored and we will reduce weight The Glycaemic Index Diet The gi (or glycaemic index) diet is linked to the glycaemic index, a chart showing types of food and an indicator of the rapidity with which the carbs in the food type gets transformed to sugar in your bloodstream. The theory is that long-acting food types (ie those food types with a low Gi number), suppress your appetite for longer and mean that you can reduce your intake of food without feeling you are always hungry. It is also extremely good for folk with diabetes, as the low GI types of food are useful in preventing rises in blood sugar secretion. The Zone Diet The Zone diet is a nutrition system initially detailed by Barry Sears in a series of books, publications and an associated web site. The Zone diet is not particularly a fat reduction diet, nevertheless many zone diet followers find that they lose a few pounds by following it. The theory behind the Zone Diet is that if you can limit the secretion of the hormones 'insulin' and 'glucogen', then your body releases eicosanoids which, as a consequence puts one's body in a state of equilibrium that is a lot more healthful than it normally is, which followers of the diet, refer to as '"he zone". Sears claims that if you get into this 'zone', your metabolism is working at its most efficient and, as a result, does not convert energy to unsightly fat. The main method of the zone system is to monitor and control the ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to ensure your diet has high levels of Omega 3 and omega 6. |
