Diet types

The Glycaemic Index Diet
The gi (or glycaemic index) weight loss program is based around the gi index, a list showing foods and an indicator of the rapidity with which the energy in the food type gets converted to sugar in the dieters system. The theory is that slow acting foods (ie those with a low Glycaemic index score), suppress your appetite for longer and help to injest less food without starving yourself.
It's also very good for diabetes sufferers, as the low GI types of food are helpful in managing rises in glucose secretion.
