The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a diet first created by Barry Sears in a number of books and publications. The Zone diet is not expressly a weight reduction diet, but many followers claim that they actually lose weight when following it. The scientific theory behind the Zone Diet is that if one can control the levels of insulin and glucogen (two hormones), then anti-inflammatory chemicals are released which, in turn puts one's body in a balanced state which is an awful lot more healthful than it normally is, which, not surprisingly, is known as 'the zone'. Sears states that if you get into this 'zone', your body is working at its best and, as a consequence, doesn't need to build up stores of fat. The most important technique of the zone system is to keep tight control over the ratio of carbs to proteins, and to ensure your diet has increased levels of Omega 3 and omega 6. The Glycaemic Index Diet The glycaemic index diet system is linked to the gi index, a list showing types of food and a score illustrating the speed with which the carbs in the food gets changed to glucose in the dieters body. The believe is that slow acting foods (ie with a low Gi score), will keep you feeling full for longer and help you to eat fewer food without starving yourself. It's also extremely good for people with diabetes, as the low GI foods are helpful in preventing increases in glucose secretion. Carotenoid foods (includes parsley, kale and sweet potatoes) These colorful natural foods have high levels of alpha-carotene and beta-carotene believed by many to play a major part in minimising the risk of cancer, specifically of the the esophagus. Many also help you lose weight, so should be included in your diet system. |
