Diet
- 2. What is Ketogenic diet? The ketogenic diet (often termed keto) is a very low-carb, high-fat diet that shares many similarities with the Atkins and low-carb diets. It involves drastically reducing carbohydrate intake, and replacing it with fat. The reduction in carbs puts your body into a metabolic state called ketosis.
- 8. What Is Paleo Diet? The Paleo diet is the healthiest way you can eat because it is the ONLY nutritional approach that works with your genetics to help you stay lean, strong and energetic! Research in biology, biochemistry, Ophthalmology, Dermatology and many other disciplines indicate it is our modern diet, full of refined foods, trans fats and sugar, that is at the root of degenerative diseases such as obesity, cancer, diabetes, heart disease, Parkinsons, Alzheimers, depression and infertility
- 12. What is Low Carb Diet? A low-carb diet is a diet that restricts carbohydrates, such as those found in sugary foods, pasta and bread. It is high in protein, fat and healthy vegetables. There are many different types of low-carb diets, and studies show that they can cause weight loss and improve health.
- 14. What is LCHF Diet? A low-carb diet means you eat fewer carbohydrates and a higher proportion of fat. This is often called a low-carb, high-fat diet (LCHF). Most importantly, you minimize your intake of sugar and starches. You can eat other delicious foods until you are satisfied and still lose weight.
- 18. What is Atkins Diet? The Atkins diet, also known as the Atkins nutritional approach, is a low-carbohydrate diet promoted by Robert Atkins and inspired by a research paper he read in The Journal of the American Medical Association. The paper entitled "Weight Reduction" was published by Alfred W. Pennington in 1958.The Atkins diet is classified as a fad diet
- 22. What is Detox / Master Cleanse Diet? Is a liquid diet used to detoxify the body and encourage weight loss. The diet is meant to be strictly followed during a three- to 10-day period. It is broken up into three phases: Ease-In, The Lemonade Diet, and Ease Out. The Master Cleanse Diet claims to make the body healthier and energized while removing toxins from the body and promoting weight loss
- 24. What is Blood Type Diet? The Eat Right for Your Type diet (Blood Type Diet) advises people to eat certain foods based on their blood type: A, B, AB, or O. The plan posits that each blood type digests food proteins (called lectins) differently and that eating the wrong food proteins can cause ill effects on the bodyincluding slower metabolism, bloating, and even certain diseases. According to this diet, avoiding bad food proteins will help you achieve better health.
- 27. What is Glycaemic Index Diet? The glycemic index (GI) is a scientific ranking that classifies foods based on how quickly they raise blood sugar levels. High-GI foods trigger a rise in blood sugar and release insulin, which is thought to trigger fat storage, intensify hunger, and lead to weight gain. The premise is that by avoiding foods that have a high-GI score, your appetite will decrease, and you will subsequently lose weight.
- 32. What is Hormone Diet? The Hormone Diet suggests that hormone fluctuations can negatively affect a persons weight, as well as other factors that can contribute to weight gain. The diet is designed to sync hormones with diet, exercise, nutritional supplements, and detoxification. The diet regulates what you eat and indicates the right time to eat to ensure the maximum benefit to your hormones.
- 35. What is Macrobiotic Diet? A blend of Buddhism and Western practices, this diet is more of a life makeovermacrobiotic means long lifeto achieve both physical and Zen-like mental harmony. The diet is primarily vegetarian, with some fish and seafood, and focuses on natural and organic foods. True followers of the diet opt for fresh, locally grown foods. The diet's nod to Eastern philosophies supports the idea of achieving a yin-yang balance from food.
- 38. What is Mediterranean Diet? The Mediterranean Diet encourages an all- encompassing healthy lifestyle through consumption of simple, fresh foods and fitness. Based on the traditional eating habits of poor coastal regions of Southern Italy, Crete, and Greece, it includes vegetables and legumes, fresh fruit, olive oil, and moderate amounts of fish, poultry, and red wine. The diet promises healthy weight loss, along with numerous other health benefits.
- 41. What is New Beverly Hills Diet? The New Beverly Hills Diet is an updated version of the original that was published in 1981. The diet suggests that food doesn't inherently cause weight gain; inefficiently digested food is to blame. The diet encourages eating the right foods at the right time and paying particular attention to food pairingthat is, which foods you are eating together.
- 43. What is Nutrisystem Diet? The Nutrisystem Diet is a prepaid meal plan with 28 days worth of meals (breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert) delivered to your door. Menus provide a mix of low-glycemic carbohydrates, plenty of fiber, and lean protein. Daily caloric allowances are restricted to 1,200 for women and 1,500 for men. Nutrisystem offers support from registered dietitians throughout the program.
- 47. What is Shangri-La Diet? The Shangri-La Diet has one rule: Take 1 to 3 tablespoons of extra light olive oil and/or 1 to 2 tablespoons of sugar water twice daily between meals. The premise is that the body learns to associate flavorful foods with calories, thus leading to overindulgence and weight gain. In theory, by consuming olive oil and sugar water, which have calories but little taste, you teach your body to stop associating flavor with calories, and it will want less food.
- 49. What is Volumetrics Diet? The Volumetrics Diet aims to empower readers to quit on-and-off dieting for good by living a healthy lifestyle based on nutritious food and regular exercise. The diet focuses on the energy density of foods (the number of calories in a specific amount of food). This low-calorie, high- volume eating plan includes foods with a lot of water and fiber, as both can increase your sense of fullness.
- 52. What is Weight Watchers Diet? The primary focus of Weight Watchers is long- term weight management with a commitment to better eating habits and a healthier lifestyle. There are no forbidden foods. Instead, a point system ascribes values to foods. To achieve weight-loss goals, dieters must stay under a certain number of points for foods consumed. Support and education are part of the comprehensive approach to healthier food and exercise choices.
- 54. What is Zone Diet? The Zone suggests that food can affect the hormonal response of the body and cause changes in insulin production. The diet suggests a food plan with a balanced ratio of carbohydrates (40%), protein (30%), and fat (30%). This mix is optimal for how the human body is genetically programmed and will allow the body to enter an efficient metabolic state ("The Zone").
- 57. What is Dash Diet? The DASH diet is a lifelong approach to healthy eating that's designed to help treat or prevent high blood pressure (hypertension).

Some eat unpasteurized dairy foods, raw eggs, meat, and fish. Your food can be cold or even a little bit warm, as long as it doesn't go above 118 degrees.
- 68. What is Ayurvedic Diet? Ayurveda is the ancient medical system of India. It offers one of the fastest paths to health.
