There are so many diet plans out there, promising weight loss
quickly. Sure, some of them do work. But there is a lot of factors that
go against them as well. For instance, the quantity to be consumed, food
types are often miscategorized or just plain simple miscalculated daily
routines.
In this case, let's start off with a baseline to define any diet. The baseline for any eating plan is the food items you are allowed to consume. All these food items are generally recommended across most healthy eating options. Let us then start listing down these food items.
The first category is that of fruits. Fruits are going to part of any healthy food platter. There can't be one without any fruits. Fruits are consumed raw and no matter what quantity you consume, they are beneficial no matter what the quantity. However, different fruits have different value additions to your diet. For instance, the grapefruit is not only a tasty fruit, it boosts the body's metabolism quite a bit. It is a recommended as part of any balanced food plan. Similarly, apples, melons, grapes, cherries, berries (strawberry, blueberries etc.) are excellent choices from the fruit basket in your daily diet.
These are rich in antioxidants, essential and health-improving vitamins and minerals. Another advantage of including a handsome quantity of fruits in your diet is that they add very little to the unhealthy carbohydrate intake. Fruits also provide an excellent source of roughage to the body. This allows for the body to have a regular BMs and promotes healthy digestion.
Moving on to the protein section of the menu. Nothing works better for the body better than raw foods. However, in most scenarios, it is not easy to obtain protein intake in your daily intake without cooking it first, for taste and safety. Most popular choices for protein would be an egg (without the yolk). It is quite easy to obtain and you can consume it many ways (boiled, sunny side up etc.) Some even prefer to consume directly from the shell to consume all the nutrition. But we only live once, so eating cooked food is no crime. Another excellent source of protein is chicken and fish. Chicken offers similar benefits as eggs, but fish has some extra valuable nutrients in the form of oils, which are very healthy for the body.
Finally, no diet plan is complete without green vegetables. Just like fruits, these an excellent source of roughage and minerals. Thus, the top ten items in out list are:
