The Atkins’ Diet
First invented by doctor atkins in the 1960s, the atkins diet is still widely used today. Although highly controversial, it allows weight reduction whilst encouraging you to eat many foods that are not normally available to dieters, for example bacon and hard cheese. With this diet you eat protein and fat, avoiding carbohydrates almost completely. Because of this, it is known as a low carbohydrate/high protein, weight loss regime. With this diet, the foods you should avoid are processed and refined sugar, milk, white bread, starchy vegetables, white rice and white flour, including, but not limited to, cereals and pasta made from white flour. Unlike other diets, on the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat are still nutrient-rich unprocessed foods such as meat, fish & poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter & olive oil. Super foods containing lycopene (includes grapefruit, red peppers and cochinchin gourd) The phytochemical lycopene is a simple compound and member of the carotenid family of phytochemicals. This chemical is accountable for the vivid red color of many food types. Usefully, unlike most other nutrients, this useful phytochemical does not become less effective if cooked but is actually improved by the cooking process. . Lycoprene's main advantage is that it is an antioxidant and is thought to help lower the risk of contracting cancer. It is the most powerful carotenoid quencher of singlet oxygen, which is linked with skin aging. It's also thought to prevent the development of atherosclerosis. |
