Types of dietThe Zone Diet The Zone diet is a nutrition system primarily suggested by Barry Sears in a number of books and publications. The Zone diet isn’t distinctly a weight loss diet, but many zone diet followers claim that they actually reduce a few pounds by following the zone diet. The science claimed for the Zone Diet is that if you manage to gain control of the amount of two key hormones, (insulin and glucogen), then your body releases eicosanoids which, as a consequence puts the body in a state of equilibrium that is much more healthful than normal, which is known as the zone. Sears claims that when in the 'zone', your body is perfectly balanced and, as a consequence, doesn't convert energy to unsightly fat. The main method of the diet is to monitor and control the ratio of carbs to proteins, and to make sure your diet has plenty of Omega 3 and omega 6. The South Beach Diet The South Beach diet is a diet created by Miami-based cardiologist arthur agatston which encourages that dieters should eat "good carbs" instead of "bad carbs" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats" Dr. agatston developed this diet as an aid to patients with heart conditions, based on his detailed study of scientific research on other weight loss systems. Approved foods include, broiled ham, chicken breast, shrimp, parmesan cheese, pecan halves, lowfat yoghurt and some vegatables, such as asparagus, broccoli and turnips. |
