Best Weight Loss Diets Backed by Science

 Are you struggling to lose weight? If so, you're not alone. Millions of people worldwide are trying to lose weight, and it can be challenging to figure out what diet to follow to achieve your goals. In this blog post, we will discuss the best weight loss diets that are backed by science and can help you lose weight in a healthy and sustainable way.

Before we dive into the diets, it's essential to remember that there's no one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to weight loss. Different diets work for different people, and it's crucial to find what works best for you. However, the diets we'll discuss in this post are all evidence-based and have been shown to be effective for weight loss.

The Mediterranean Diet

The Mediterranean Diet is a plant-based diet that emphasizes whole grains, fruits, vegetables, nuts, legumes, and olive oil. It's low in red meat, sugar, and saturated fat, making it a heart-healthy diet that's also great for weight loss. Studies have shown that people who follow the Mediterranean Diet lose more weight than those who follow a low-fat diet.

The Low-Carb Diet

The Low-Carb Diet is a diet that limits carbohydrates, including sugar, bread, pasta, and rice. Instead, it emphasizes protein, fat, and non-starchy vegetables. When you limit carbs, your body enters a state of ketosis, where it burns fat for energy instead of carbohydrates. This diet has been shown to be effective for weight loss, especially for people with type 2 diabetes.

The DASH Diet

The DASH Diet (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) is a diet that's designed to help lower blood pressure. However, it's also an excellent diet for weight loss. It emphasizes fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean protein, and low-fat dairy. It's low in saturated fat, red meat, and sugar, making it a heart-healthy and weight-loss-friendly diet.

The Flexitarian Diet

The Flexitarian Diet is a plant-based diet that allows for occasional meat and dairy consumption. It emphasizes whole foods, including fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds. It's low in saturated fat and high in fiber, making it a great diet for weight loss.

Intermittent Fasting

Intermittent Fasting is not a diet, but rather an eating pattern that involves cycling between periods of eating and fasting. There are several different ways to do intermittent fasting, but the most popular is the 16/8 method, where you fast for 16 hours and eat during an 8-hour window. Intermittent fasting has been shown to be effective for weight loss and may also have health benefits, such as reducing inflammation and improving insulin sensitivity.

In conclusion, these are some of the best diets for weight loss that are backed by science. Remember, the key to successful weight loss is finding a diet that works for you and making sustainable lifestyle changes. By following these evidence-based diets, you can achieve your weight loss goals in a healthy and sustainable way.

Dried Fruit Types

By Joshua Adekane


You must snack on some dried fruits if you only want to eat something tasty and nutritious. All the flavors and nutrients are retained when the fruit is dehydrated and an ounce of nutrients greatly increases. However, be extra careful if you have diabetes because the sugar content also goes up when the fruit is dehydrated. Dried fruits can withstand long storage but there are also a few that cannot. Dehydrated fruits are found everywhere; you only have to take your pick to know each one's flavor and the nutritional benefits you derive from them. In addition, you can get your kids to like fruits too.

The Dried Apple

An apple chip is one example of a fruit that may be dried. A dried apple has its core removed before the process. These dried apple chips retain their delicate texture and taste. Since dried fruits are rich in dietary fibers, they may be used to sprinkle baked products like cakes and muffins. Use them as a tasteful addition to oatmeal too. They may also be eaten as snacks and even school lunches. Moreover, fruits may be dried out in the open and are sometimes used as air fresheners and DIY decorations. Wholesale dried fruits must be stored in dark and tight containers to last for a longer period.

The Dried Apricot

This is one of the really sweet dried fruits with great taste too. Apricots are chewy when dried and are good sources of potassium and fiber as well as vitamin A. Apricots are also good additions to cakes, muffins and ice cream. Apricots are enjoyed by people who love to hike or because they prevent cramps and are easy to bring. They make good additions to the lunch box too. They are consumed for their high nutritional attributes. You don't have to freeze them to make them last longer.

The Dried Cranberry

Recently, cranberries have also been dried and have enjoyed their popularity since they are very nutritious despite their sizes. They are altogether sweet and sour tasting but are lower in sugar than some of the other dried fruit choices so they can be enjoyed by themselves by the handful or they can easily be combined with different types of dried fruits too. Stored in a tight holder they will last for a few weeks or more. They are great add ons to baked muffins or included to your plain pancake batter. They make a great granola addition too. Because of the tartness a few may be added so check the listing to guarantee you aren't receiving extra added sugar in this treat.

The Dried Pineapple

With this dried fruit you get a good burst of pineapple so you may well want to bundle it with other dried fruits when you purchase your bulk peanuts. Available in different forms it's a good source of fiber. Check for additional sugar before shopping for a package.

Exercise Makes The Heart Grow Stronger

By Oscar Mulhoney


How much have you gone to sleep at night, swearing you'll go to the gym in the morning, and then changing your mind just eight hours later because when you get up, you don't feel like exercising?

While this can happen to the best of us, it doesn't mean you should drop the ball altogether when it comes to staying fit. What people need to realize is that staying active and eating right are critical for long-term health and wellness -- and that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

The more you know about how your body responds to your lifestyle choices, the better you can customize a nutrition and exercise plan that is right for you. When you eat well, increase your level of physical activity, and exercise at the proper intensity, you are informing your body that you want to burn a substantial amount of fuel. This translates to burning fat more efficiently for energy.

In other words, proper eating habits plus exercise equals fast metabolism, which, in turn gives you more energy throughout the day and allows you to do more physical work with less effort.

The true purpose of exercise is to send a repetitive message to the body asking for improvement in metabolism, strength, aerobic capacity and overall fitness and health. Each time you exercise, your body responds by upgrading its capabilities to burn fat throughout the day and night, Exercise doesn't have to be intense to work for you, but it does need to be consistent.

I recommend engaging in regular cardiovascular exercise four times per week for 20 to 30 minutes per session, and resistance training four times per week for 20 to 25 minutes per session. This balanced approach provides a

one-two punch, incorporating aerobic exercise to burn fat and deliver more oxygen, and resistance training to increase lean body mass and burn more calories around the block.

Here's a sample exercise program that may work for you:

* Warm Up -- seven to eight minutes of light aerobic activity intended to increase blood flow and lubricate and warm-up your tendons and joints.

* Resistance Training -- Train all major muscle groups. One to two sets of each exercise. Rest 45 seconds between sets.

* Aerobic Exercise -- Pick two favorite activities, they could be jogging, rowing, biking or cross-country skiing, whatever fits your lifestyle. Perform 12 to 15 minutes of the first activity and continue with 10 minutes of the

second activity. Cool down during the last five minutes.

* Stretching -- Wrap up your exercise session by stretching, breathing deeply, relaxing and meditating.

When starting an exercise program, it is important to have realistic expectations. Depending on your initial fitness level, you should expect the following changes early on.

* From one to eight weeks -- Feel better and have more energy.

* From two to six months -- Lose size and inches while becoming leaner. Clothes begin to fit more loosely. You are gaining muscle and losing fat.

* After six months -- Start losing weight quite rapidly.

Once you make the commitment to exercise several times a week, don't stop there. You should also change your diet and/or eating habits,' says Zwiefel. Counting calories or calculating grams and percentages for certain nutrients is

impractical. Instead, I suggest these easy-to-follow guidelines:

* Eat several small meals (optimally four) and a couple of small snacks throughout the day

* Make sure every meal is balanced -- incorporate palm-sized proteins like lean meats, fish, egg whites and dairy products, fist-sized portions of complex carbohydrates like whole-wheat bread and pasta, wild rice, multigrain cereal and potatoes, and fist-sized portions of vegetable and

fruits

* Limit your fat intake to only what's necessary for adequate flavour

* Drink at least eight 8-oz. glasses of water throughout the day

* I also recommend that you take a multi-vitamin each day to ensure you are getting all the vitamins and minerals your body needs.

I suppose that's all I can think of for now. I should extend my thanks to a doctor friend of mine. Without him, I wouldn't be able to write this article, or keep my sanity.

Enjoy life, we all deserve it.
