DIET

Different people need different diet depending on their age, health, activities etc. Like a bodybuilder needs more proteins

  

 

                                        

The best weight loss diet is all of the following -

1. One that makes you healthy first.

2. One that lowers your risk for heart disease, cancer and diabetes and provides nutrients to support all your organs and hormones.

3. One that's actually not a diet at all, rather a lifestyle change based on education and support.

4. Weight loss happens naturally.

This is the simplest and healthiest diet in the world - the Whole foods, mainly Plant-based diet. Nothing complicated. And yet it's the diet that can majorly cut your risk of serious diseases such as Heart disease, Diabetes, and Cancer, as well as Fatty liver, Kidney disease, hormonal imbalances etc.

There are different types of diets. Some are:-

                                   

1.Atkins diet :- The Atkins diet, or Atkins nutritional approach, focuses on controlling the levels of insulin in the body through a low-carbohydrate diet. 

When people consume large amounts of refined carbohydrates, their insulin levels rise and fall rapidly. Rising insulin levels trigger the body to store energy from the food that is consumed, making it less likely that the body will use stored fat as a source of energy.

                                           

2.The Zone diet :- The Zone diet aims for nutritional balance of 40 percent carbohydrates, 30 percent fats, and 30 percent protein in each meal. The focus is also on controlling insulin levels, which may result in more successful weight loss and body weight control than other approaches.The Zone diet encourages the consumption of high-quality carbohydrates which includes unrefined carbohydrates, and fats, such as olive oil, avocado, and nuts

                                  

3.Ketogenic diet :- It involves reducing carbohydrate intake and upping fat intake. It sounds contrary to common sense, but it allows the body to burn fat as a fuel, rather than carbohydrates.

Healthy fats, such as those in avocados, coconuts, Brazil nuts, seeds, oily fish, and olive oil are liberally added to the diet to maintain an overall emphasis on fat.

The diet causes the breakdown of fat deposits for fuel and creates substances called ketones through a process called ketosis.

                                    

4.Vegetarian diet :- There are various types of vegetarian: lacto-vegetarian, fruitarian vegetarian, lacto-ovo vegetarian, living food diet vegetarian, ovo-vegetarian, pesco-vegetarian, and semi-vegetarian.

The majority of vegetarians are lacto-ovo vegetarians, in other words, they do not eat animal-basedfoods, except for eggs, dairy, and honey .

                                     

5.Vegan diet :- A vegan does not eat anything that is animal-based, including eggs, dairy, and honey. 

6.Weight Watchers diet :- Weight Watchers focuses on losing weight through diet, exercise, and a support network.

7.South Beach diet :- It focuses on the control of insulin levels, and the benefits of unrefined slow carbohydrates versus fast carbohydrates

                                                 

8.Raw food diet :- The raw food diet, or raw foodism, involves consuming foods and drinks that are not processed, are completely plant-based, and ideally organic.

Raw foodists believe that at least three-quarters of a person’s food intake should consist of uncooked food. A significant number of raw foodists are also vegans and do not eat or drink anything that is animal based.

                                   

9. Mediterranean diet :- The emphasis is on lots of plant foods, fresh fruits as dessert, beans, nuts, whole grains, seeds, olive oil as the main source of dietary fats. Cheese and yogurts are the main dairy foods. The diet also includes moderate amounts of fish and poultry, up to about four eggs per week, small amounts of red meat, and low to moderate amounts of wine.

  

                                                 

Up to one-third of the Mediterranean diet consists of fat, with saturated fats not exceeding 8 percent of calorie intake.
