Dean Ornish Diet
How this diet works:
At the core of the
'Eat More, Weigh Less' philosophy is one simple strategy -- dieters change
the type of food they eat, not the amount. Rather than offer rules, the plan
focuses on choices. But it’s clear that low-fat vegetarian choices are the
preferred ones. In fact,
Good Points Fruits,
vegetables, beans, and whole grains are not restricted which is good for
vegetarians but staples like nuts, seeds, and avocadoes are limited
because they're high in fat.. With its focus on vegetables and whole grains,
this plan is inexpensive. Regarding exercise, dieters start out slowly in
order to prevent injury. The ultimate goal: 30 to 60 minutes of walking or
moderate activity each day. This is all about awareness. Instead of
"wolfing down" an apple or pear, cut the fruit into sections, and
savor each small piece.
Bad
Points Eating out, yes -- but it can be difficult. Restaurants
seldom dish up this kind of Spartan, low-fat vegetarian fare
