Diet types


The Glycaemic Index Diet
The gi (or glycaemic index) nutrition and weightloss system is linked to the gi (or glycaemic index), a list of types of food and a score representing the rapidity with which the carbs of the food gets transformed to glucose in your body. The believe is that long-acting food types (ie with a low Glycaemic index score), will keep you feeling full for longer and mean that you can eat less food without feeling you are missing out.
It's also extremely beneficial for diabetes sufferers, as the low GI types of food are useful in managing rises in blood sugar levels.


The Atkins’ Diet
Developed by dr. robert atkins in the 1960s, the atkins diet achieved most of its fame during the last few years. Although not accepted by all scientists, it allows weight loss whilst still eating many foods that would not be part of a normal diet, such as fatty meat and butter.
On the atkins diet you eat protein and fat, avoiding carbohydrates almost completely. It is referred to as a low carb/high protein, nutrition and weightloss 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 continues to be 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 theory of the atkins diet is that if we reduce your intake of carbs, our bodies will use up our fat and we will achieve weight loss

"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
