Sa sobrang dami nila, baka nalilito ka na rin sa kung alin sa mga ito ang pinaka effective.
Alin kaya sa mga diets na ito ang nababagay sa atin,? 🤔 Tara, check natin to! 👇
Calories are a measure of energy in food.
Knowing the calorie content of food can help you achieve or maintain a healthy weight by knowing how a particular food fits into your daily energy needs. In order to lose weight, you must consume less energy than you use.
Low calorie diets typically range from 800-1500 cals/day and very low calorie diets (VLCD) are usually classified as under 800 cals/day.
Some commercial programs are accompanied by supplements and injections which are said to speed up weight loss.
Examples: HCG Diet, Dr. Bernstein, Medically Supervised Weight Loss
Pros:
Medical assistance and supervision for personalized attention and care.
Rapid weight loss.
Support for weight loss maintenance.
Cons:
May feel hungry often.
Risk of constipation, dizziness, fatigue and nutrient deficiencies.
High chance of weight re-gain.
VLCD’s are affiliated with gallstones.
Supplements/injections may contain ingredient combos in doses that have not been adequately studied for efficacy.
Expensive.
Based on your weight, you’re recommended a diet, exercise, & behavior modification program to help you lose about 1lb/wk.
Products such as pills, supplements, shakes, pre-packaged and pre-portioned meals are sold as the basis of your diet regime, and may be delivered to your door.
Weekly classes & individual or group counselling is often offered and lifestyle management, motivation & nutritional info is sometimes provided.
Examples: Jenny Craig, Medifast, Slim Fast, Nutri System, Herbal Magic
Pros:
Convenient, fast and easy.
Takes the guess work out of healthy eating.
No specific food groups or foods are off limits – they even offer dessert!
Cons:
Expensive.
Can become reliant on products.
Lack of overall nutrition education/basic healthy eating skills.
May be difficult to adjust eating outside of program in social settings.
Herbal supplements may increase risk of drug interactions and renal problems & lack evidence to suggest efficacy.
Fasting is a dietary pattern that reduces the amount you eat for short periods of time.
Some plans suggest alternating between normally (unmoderated) eating days and fasting days each week, with fasting usually described at around 1/4 of your normal intake.
Other fasting regimes suggest zero consumption for 14-16 hours a day, and eating unmoderated for the remaining 8-10.
In either case, the idea is to reduce overall weekly caloric intake to induce weight loss.
Examples: LeanGains, Fat Loss Forever, Eat Stop Eat, Warrior Diet, 5:2 Meal Plan, Alternate Day, Intermittent Fasting
Pros:
Some may find it easy to only need to “diet” for a few days/ week.
May help improve blood pressure, cholesterol, & insulin.
Fat may be more readily burned after glucose stores are used up during fasting.
Cons:
Potential for dehydration on fast days.
Significant hunger.
Fasting may increase stress, sleep disruption, headaches, & fatigue.
Lack of overall nutrition education and healthy relationship with food.
May have difficulty maintaining in social situations.
Lacks long-term evidence of efficacy.
The alleged reason for cleansing is to boost energy and immunity, allow your digestive system to “rest” and to stimulate weight loss.
May include herbal or medicinal supplements, laxatives, strict restrictive diet, large intakes of water, juice, or fiber for the duration of the plan.
Examples: Master Cleanse, WildRose Detox, Juju Cleanse, David Kirsch, Colon Cleaning, Candida Cleanse, Cleon Eating
Pros:
Automatically eliminates unhealthy behaviors like drinking alcohol, smoking, or eating processed high fat foods.
May be a way to get more fruits, vegetables and water.
Cons:
Hunger.
Risk of dehydration, electrolyte imbalances, low blood sugar, low blood pressure, headaches, and fatigue.
Potential interactions with medications.
Doesn’t address long term healthy eating strategies.
Juicing is associated with increased risk of Diabetes.
Difficult to maintain in social situations.
Lacks long-term evidence of efficacy.
These diets restrict intake of carbohydrate-containing food (breads, cereals, starchy veg, fruits, milk products, etc.), while including larger amounts of protein and fat.
Some low-carb diets encourage leaner meats and healthier fats while others permit foods high in saturated fat.
Popular regimes include around 20g of carbs/day or less for 2-3 months and 50g carbs or less/day for ongoing weight loss phase.
Examples: Atkins, Dukans, The Zone, Ketogenic, Paleo, South Beach
Pros:
Relatively fast weight loss.
High rate of satiety.
Focus on high consumption of vegetables.
Low glycemic load.
May help you automatically cut down on alcohol, and high sugar processed foods.
Cons:
Foggy head, fatigue, bad mood and bad breath due to ketosis.
Risk of consuming too much saturated fat (which may increase bad LDL cholesterol).
Lack of fiber from low carb- consumption may cause constipation.
Potential stress on the kidneys.
Potential nutrient deficiencies from lack of carbs.
Dietary fat provides 9 calories per gram compared to carbohydrates & proteins that both provide 4 calories per gram, so most low fat diets also are reduced calorie.
Some low fat diets suggest anywhere from 15% to less than 10% of caloric intake from fat and focus on very lean proteins (often vegetarian), whole grains and fruits and vegetables.
The idea is to choose foods that are higher in fiber and water content and therefore, contain a higher volume of food for fewer calories.
Some calorie counting programs assign point values to food and activity instead of focusing on specific calories.
Examples: The Pritikin Diet, Volumetrics, Ornish, Weight Watchers
Pros:
No large food groups excluded.
May help lower cholesterol level, blood pressure, cardiovascular risk & stabilize blood sugar.
May help you feel satisfied thanks to fiber and larger portions.
Cons:
Diets may be lacking omega-3 fatty acids & risk deficiency in fat soluble vitamins.
Fat is satiating, so may still feel hungry despite eating voluminous portions of food.
Fat-Free foods may have hidden sugars.
Food with “zero points” still have calories over consumption may slow weight loss.
Mindful eating is more about how you eat than it is about what you eat.
It is about being aware of your hunger and satiety signals, the emotional and physical sensations you experience while eating, and the thoughts and emotions you have around eating and food.
It is also about finding peace with your body and honoring its unique needs, rather than purposefully restricting or feeling guilty about what you eat or what you weigh or look like.
Examples: Intention, Attention, Triggers, Body Cues, Recognition
Pros:
Evidence suggests long-term efficacy.
Healthy eating regime that is manageable for life (long term)
Strengthens personal connection to eating & food.
Prevents overeating and hunger.
Reduces guilt & anxiety about food.
Improves digestion with thorough chewing.
No foods are off limits (even treats are encouraged!)
Cons:
Requires more time at meals.
Shift in eating behavior may be challenging for chronic dieters.
Need distraction-free eating environment.
May not see rapid changes in weight or body shape.
These diets highlight specific patterns of eating and heart healthy lifestyle choices to achieve healthy weights.
Emphasis is placed on eating an abundance of fresh fruits and vegetables, eating more whole grains, lean protein, and low-fat dairy, legumes, nuts, and healthy fats including olive oil and omega-3 fatty acids.
Limiting meat, processed food and sugar is encouraged.
In general, most suggest eating a variety of foods, limiting saturated fat to less than 7% of total calories, total fat to 25-35% of calories, and dietary cholesterol to less than 200mg per day.
Examples: Mediterranean Diet, TLC Diet, Canada’s Food Guide, Anti-inflammatory Diet, Nordic Diet
Pros:
May help lower cardiovascular risk & cholesterol levels.
High in antioxidants through promotion of high fruit and vegetable intake.
Promotes physical activity.
Reduces processed foods and sodium intake.
Promotes satiety.
Encourages consumption of healthy fats.
Cons:
Emphasis on whole grains, fruits, vegetables, nuts, and fish can be expensive.
Some people may not see significant weight loss or may feel overwhelmed by a lack of structure or set of strict rules.
Elimination diets are typically used when individuals suspect certain foods are causing adverse effects, such as food allergies or intolerance.
Suspected foods are removed from the diet entirely for a period of time and reintroduced and evaluated on how the body responds.
Some diets that eliminate certain food groups do so for philosophical or lifestyle reasons, and not necessarily for evidence-based health concerns.
Examples: Vegan, Low-Foodmap Diet, Raw Food Diet, Macrobiotic, Blood Type Diet, Gluten-Free Diet
Pros:
May experience relief with food intolerances or allergies.
Strict rules are easy to follow and can quickly eliminate a wide variety of processed, high calorie foods and drinks.
Cons:
Rigid rules are very hard to follow long term.
Specialty products can be very expensive.
If whole food groups eliminated, there is a potential for nutritional deficiencies.
Very difficult to maintain in social situations.
Strict rules may contribute to disordered eating patterns.
Lacks long-term evidence of efficacy for weight-loss.

The reality is you could follow every “thin belly” rule mainstream “gurus” prescribe, perform every “belly flattening” exercise on the Internet, eliminate every possible “hormone clogging” food, bid every form of sugar a sad farewell and subject yourself to the doldrums of low-carb living.
And still have handfuls of ugly stubborn fat for the rest of your life. It doesn’t have to be like this, though.
Here’s a brief guide on the science of losing stubborn fat, including the dreaded stomach, hip, and thigh fat for good.
Certain fat cells in your body are extremely “resistant” to being mobilized and burned.
They don’t respond as well to the body’s fat-burning chemicals and processes.
Stubborn fat cells tend to accumulate in the dreaded belly, hip, and thigh regions of your body.
THIS IS WHY, WHEN YOU START A FAT LOSS REGIMEN, YOU SEE IMMEDIATE RESULTS IN CERTAIN AREAS OF YOUR BODY LIKE YOUR CHEST, ARMS AND FACE, BUT NEXT-TO-NOTHING IN OTHER AREAS.
You can use a handful of science-based diet, exercise, and supplementation strategies to beat (and burn!) stubborn fat for good.
1. Myth:
You can preferentially “target” belly fat for elimination.
Fact: No amount of crunches or planks or anything else are going to directly burn the fat away.
2. Myth:
There are individual foods that help you lose stubborn fat.
Fact: The belly bulge isn’t caused by high-glycemic carbs or “processed foods” or dairy, and no amount of healthy fats or other “fat loss foods” are going to get rid of it.
3. Myth:
Meal frequency matters.
Fact: Eating many small meals per day doesn’t speed up your metabolism and eating fewer, larger meals doesn’t send your body into “starvation mode.”
4. Myth:
Eating late at night hinders fat loss.
Fact: Eating the majority of your daily calories early or late has no effect on weight loss parameters or body composition.
5. Myth:
Stress makes it impossible to lose fat.
Fact: Stress can promote behaviors that lead to weight gain but can’t directly cause it through hormonal imbalances or any other mechanisms.
Forget “flat belly diets,” “weird tricks,” and all the other nonsense on how to lose belly fat. Here’s the real science of losing it for good.
When you’re dieting for fat loss, your goal should be to lose fat as quickly as possible while also preserving your muscle and health.
If you eat enough protein, use weightlifting to drive your fat loss, and keep cardio to a minimum, you can safely maintain a 20 to 25% calorie deficit and maximize fat loss while minimizing muscle loss.
Fasted state is anywhere from 3 to 6 hours after your last meal.
Fasted exercise is exercise done when insulin levels are low.
Research shows that fasted exercise can help you lose stubborn belly fat by accelerating fat burning and increasing blood flow to the abdominal region.
HIIT is a method of exercising where you alternate between periods of high-intensity and low-intensity recovery. During your high-intensity bouts, you’re pushing yourself almost as hard as you can, and during your low-intensity periods, you’re catching your breath in preparation for the next sprint.
Research shows that HIIT cardio is far more effective for losing fat than low-intensity steady-state cardio (LISS).
This helps you preserve your strength while in a calorie deficit, which in turn helps you preserve your muscle.
Research shows it also dramatically increases your basal metabolic rate for several days after each workout, resulting in hundreds of more calories burned than workouts performed with lighter weights.
is a natural compound found in certain types of citrus fruits. It increases your metabolic rate, helps mobilize stubborn fat cells, and increases the “energy cost” of metabolizing the food you eat.
When combined with fasted training, Yohimbine helps you burn stubborn belly fat faster and also improves exercise performance.
helps you lose fat by increasing the amount of energy your body burns throughout the day. It also improves strength, promotes muscle endurance, and enhances anaerobic performance.
