Diet information


The Glycaemic Index Diet
The gi index diet is based around the gi index, a list showing food types and an indicator of the speed with which the carbs in the food type gets transformed to glucose in your body. The theory is that slow release food types (ie with a low Gi score), suppress your appetite and help you to cut down on food without feeling you are missing out.
It's also very useful for diabetics, as the low GI foods are useful in minimizing surges in blood glucose amount.


The Atkins’ Diet
First invented by doctor atkins in the 1960s, the atkins diet achieved most of its fame during the last decade. Although highly controversial, it claims to allow weight loss whilst still eating many of the foods you love, for example fatty meat and some dairy produce.
Unlike other diets, on the atkins diet you are supposed to eat fat and protein, it is the carbs that must be avoided. Because of this, it is known as a low carbohydrate, 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.
Unlike other diets, with the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat continues to be nutrient-rich unprocessed foods such as meat, fish and poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and, as a consequence, olive oil.

The Atkins’ Diet Theory
The 'science' behind the popular atkins diet is that if we reduce your intake of carbs, we will consume the fat we have stored and we will become thinner

"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
