Five Diets for Losing Weight

by Andrea Pelin

Here are five diets based on low-calorie consumption that should help losing weight.

The low fat diet is useful as long as the consumer understands that fats are necessary for the absorbtion of vitamins A, D, E, K, calcium, and hormone production. A balance between the amount of fat and calories from carbohydrates should be maintained. Thereby, if the fat quantity increases, the amount of calories from carbohydrates should decrease.

The low fat diet should include cold cereals with milk, fruits, toast, cottage cheese, cheesy pita chips, and chicken breast sandwich with salad, rice pilaf, beef and pepper sauté.

The high-fiber diet is popular because of the benefit that vitamin B provides. This diet does not refer to the cereal bars that many people grab in the morning on their way out. People should consume cereals with nonfat milk, wheat germ or fruits, low-fat cheese, whole wheat crackers, rice pilaf next to beef and pepper sauté, carrots, fruits, and crunchy tuna salad.

The low-cholesterol diet is based on salmon salad with bread, turkey burger on bun with healthy fries, popcorn and juice, fruit and salad, whole-grain cereal with nonfat milk. The diet is useful not only for weight loss, but also for preventing coronary heart disease.

For the diabetics who wish to lose weight there is a special diet composed of fruit, salad, healthy shake, steak fajita with whole-wheat tortilla, turkey sandwich with honey mustard, toast with peanut butter, wheat germ and jelly.

The vegetable diet can reduce the risk of having heart disease, cancer, hypertension, diabetes, chronic diseases or stroke. Eat fruit, salad, vegetarian bacon with toast, yogurt, tofu and been enchiladas, cottage cheese.

All these diets along with physical exercise should result in weight loss and a healthy life.
