Diet informationThe Atkins’ Diet Developed by dr. robert atkins in the 1960s, the atkins diet has been one of the most popular weight loss systems over the last few years. Although not accepted by all scientists, it claims to allow weight reduction but still allows you to eat foods that are normally considered bad for diets, eg beef and hard cheeses. With this diet you eat protein and fat, it is the carbs that must be avoided. It is often referred to as a high protein, low carb, 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 nutrient-rich unprocessed foods such as meat, fish and poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and, as a result, olive oil. The Atkins’ Diet Theory The logic behind the atkins diet is that if we reduce your consumption of carbohydrates, we will burn up our fat and we will lose weight The South Beach Diet The South Beach diet is a diet started by Florida-based cardiologist arthur agatston which encourages that dieters should be eating "good carbohydrates" instead of "bad carbohydrates" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats" Doctor agatston developed his nutritional system for people who have heart disease, based on his detailed analysis of scientific data completed on other weight loss regimes. Examples of good foods include, veal cutlets, turkey breast, shellfish, provolone cheese, peanut butter, eggs and certain vegetables, like split peas, eggplant and sprouts. The Glycaemic Index Diet The gi (or glycaemic index) nutrition system is linked to the gi (or glycaemic index), a chart showing foods and a score representing the ease that the carbs of the food type gets changed to sugar in your system. The theory is that slow acting food types (ie those with a low Glycaemic score), suppress your appetite and help you to cut down on food without craving snacks all the time. It is also extremely efficient for diabetics, as the low GI types of food are helpful in minimizing rises in blood glucose secretion. |
