Part-1 Atkins Diet- Proteins and fats are eaten liberally in every phase, but carbohydrates are restricted to different degrees. In the first two weeks ( called the Induction phase) dieters are restricted to 20 grams of carbohydrate per day, or roughly the amount in 3 cups of salad vegetables. Protein is needed by the body to supply the building blocks of all our muscles, organs, hormones, enzymes, etc. Less muscle tissue further contributes to a slowed metabolism, and reduced fat-burning.
The Atkins diet seeks to remove refined carbohydrates and these include sugar, flour, and high-fructose corn syrups. In addition most people end up regaining or gaining back lost weight on extremely limited diets because of the difficulty in sticking to the long-term limitations. Do not expect success on the long term weight loss effectiveness of rigorously restricted diets.In addition, total weight-loss related with improvements in blood pressure are as follows: effects on fasting glucose and total cholesterol levels were variable. After 6 months, the mean reductions in body weight, were: Rosemary Conley 9.9%; Weight Watchers 9.0%; Atkins' 8.9%; and Slim-Fast 6.8% (the differences not significant.)
Carbohydrates intake should not be more then 20 grams every day. You can have meat, cheese and other dairy products, however in very limited quantities.Carbohydrate-containing foods like, fruit, many vegetables, bread, cereals, rice, potatoes, pasta, cakes, biscuits, sugar, milk and yogurt must be prevented.The ongoing weight-loss phase which is the next phase allows approximately 40g of carbohydrate everyday. Carbohydrates are turned or changed into glucose and are used before fats in our bodies. According to Atkins, if we lower or reduce the amount of carbohydrate consumption, our body will burn our fat as fuel, therefore weight loss occurs.
Carbohydrates supply fuel for your body, during this phase a feeling of tiredness and fatigued are going to expected.Dieters say this is the worst and uncomfortable part of the diet. Carbohydrates are long chains of sugars, which the body breaks down into sugar. Atkins really believes that when people limit the carbohydrates available or ready, they force the body to use its fat reserves as fuel. Carbohydrate consumption is restricted to 20 net grams everyday. The everyday diet includes liberal amounts of all types of meats, fish, eggs, low carbohydrate vegetables, and fruits, breads, pasta, grains, however starchy vegetables are to be avoided.
Carbohydrates and fat provide the fuel that produces that energy and then your body metabolizes (turns or change into energy) firstCarbohydrates are bounded or restricted to approximately 20 grams daily in the first 2 weeks on the Atkins diet.Then a weekly 5 gram gain is followed until you establish your critical carbohydrate level for maintenance.Meaning you need to exclude in your diet mostly pasta, potatoes, breads, waffles and pancakes.
Dieters are advised to eliminate all carbohydrate for the first two weeks before moving on to the second section, where a few carbohydrates are permitted.After reaching their weight dream or goal, dieters are then advised to maintain or continue the diet. - 16089
