P.O.R.N. Diets

I am coining this term as I feel some of the diets out there are so radical they need to be discussed in one place.

We here from our favorite celebrities daily and some of us live for this. We follow them on Twitter, talk about them on Bebo and MySpace or e mail each other about them especially when a new diet is talked about.

There have been some over the top radical diets in the past like the 'Air diet', not a very popular one for obvious reasons unlike the 'Chocolate' diet. Then there is the more main stream 'Atkins' diet or 'The Dash Diet' or even 'The South Beach Diet'. All have there plus and minus points and their advocates and nay sayers as well.

The trick when it comes to diets if there is a trick in selecting one would be to thoroughly research the topic. The mere fact that there literally are thousands of diets commercially available shown on television, billboards or even your local Chemist shop.

Here will be many, many articles pertaining to the topic of P.O.R.N. Diets circulating our media and your opinion on them is most welcome. Maybe you have been on one and would like to praise it or maybe warn others away from it. Whatever you may like to share, diet related, please do.

Popular Green Tea Diet Plans

By Jennifer Delaines

The western world at large has only recently been exposed to the various benefits that green tea possesses. The use of green tea has been prevalent in many Asian cultures for centuries but it is only today that many of us have realized the potential of this amazing drink.

Scientific research has concluded that green tea can help prevent and cure a large number of diseases ranging from life threatening diseases like cancer and HIV to the common flu. Another amazing use of green tea that has recently been realized by modern science is that for weight loss.

Increasing signs of advertisements supporting green tea as a weight loss aid are visible all around us. Weight loss clubs and experts have promoted a multitude of diet programs revolving around green tea.

When you are looking for some green tea diet variety it can be quite daunting to make a selection due to the wide variety available.

Of course there is no doubt about the benefits of green tea in its assistance in you losing weight in a healthy fashion. However, its complete effectiveness is visible only if it is used properly.

Quite often green tea diets comprise of the use of green tea supplements, however you need to watch out for this when choosing a particular diet program.

Green tea supplements are made in different ways. When selecting a specific diet program you should check to see whether the particular supplement being used in the diet has all the ingredients that you need in the current situation.

Generally the more potent the camellia sinensis leaf is the more effective the green tea supplement will be for weight loss. This leaf is endowed with the active ingredients that will work the wonders on your body. Polyphenols and catechins are the two main ingredients that help in the process of weight loss.

Green tea supplements which are used as part of green tea diet, include other beneficial chemicals like biotin, carnitine, alpha-lipoic acid, r-lipoic acid and piper nigrum. These chemicals are critical in helping you lose weight in a healthy manner and to keep it off.

Carefully consider the caffeine content in the green tea supplement you are using, as an excessive quantity of caffeine in the system is not healthy. However, good diets based on green tea make you use those supplements which have only the required quantity of caffeine.

The green tea diet on its own will not result in massive weight-loss, and has to be combined by a healthy eating plan.
