The Glycemic Load Diet Weight Loss: 30 Days Challenge

Pages : 647

Book Description
Want a diet that you can stick to for the long term The glycemic index diet is not a true low-carbohydrate diet because you don't have to count carbohydrates (carbs). Nor is it a low-fat diet. It also doesn't require you to reduce portion sizes or count calories. But the glycemic index diet does steer you toward certain types of carbs. One study showed that participants following the Zone diet maintained a weight loss of about 7 pounds (3.2 kilograms) after one year — about the same amount of weight lost as in the three other diets in the study. There have been few studies about the impact of the glycemic index diet on weight loss after a year or more. But some evidence suggests that a diet higher in protein and lower on the glycemic index may lead to sustained weight loss. Some evidence also suggests that you may lose weight on a glycemic index diet simply because you choose more fiber and protein, which helps you reduce portion sizes and eat less.

Book Description
"DASH" stands for "Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension," Hypertension is called the "silent killer" because about one-third of the people with it DO NOT KNOW that they have it. One in every four adults -- some 50 million people in the USA alone -- have high blood pressure. High blood pressure often has no warning signs or symptoms.Once it occurs it usually lasts a lifetime. Research has shown that following a healthy eating plan can both reduce the risk of developing high blood pressure and lower an already elevated blood pressure.If uncontrolled, it can leadto heart and kidney disease and stroke.

All the dishes contain at least one low-GI food, which will lower the overall GI count. The Low Glycemic Index, High Fiber, Low Saturated Fat, Low Sodium 285 Recipes provided in this book are wholesome and tasty. Simple to prepare, yet totally delicious . These recipes will be a surprise! All the recipes also include detailed information on calories, fat, saturated fat, cholesterol, carbohydrates, protein, fiber, sodium, and potassium, as well as serving sizes and time to prepare and cook.

If you are looking for a structured diet that tells you exactly what types of foods to eat, how much, and when, Weight Watchers might not work for you. The ability to choose anything you want to eat may prove too tempting for some. It is completely possible to use all your Points on less-than-nutritious foods unless you consciously commit to making healthier decisions. They advertise, trying to convince overweight people that they can lose weight without sacrificing the foods they love. However, this is only achieved by allowing dieters to have calories that should be consumed on healthy food with very small portions of potentially unhealthy food. This strategy gives the dieter a false sense of the real nutritional changes they need to make in their lives for long-term success. If one seriously wants to lose weight and keep it off, they need to think more comprehensively about the foods they eat without the confusing points scheme. With the old points system, you could use your points anyway you like. But we now know if you use your points wisely by eating foods rich in protein and fiber -- these foods fill you up, keep hunger at bay, and help you lose weight in a healthier and more nutritious way. lose weight not muscles Proteins Proteins are the basic building blocks of every cell in your body.
