Diet types

The Glycaemic Index Diet
The glycaemic index diet system is linked to the gi (or glycaemic index), a chart showing foods and a score representing the speed with which the carbohydrates of the food type gets changed to sugar in the dieters blood stream. The claim is that long-acting foods (ie those food types with a low Glycaemic index score), keep you satiated for longer and help you to injest less food without feeling you are always hungry.
It is also very good for folk with diabetes, as the low GI food types are beneficial in preventing increases in glucose amount.
