The best diet is the one you can stick to
March 3rd, 2009 - Posted by Caitlin
Last week, the largest ever controlled study of diet programs was published in The New England Journal of Medicine. The study tested different types of popular diet plans. All of the diet plans reduced calories, but each one emphasized a different combination of fat, carbohydrates and protein. All participants received group or individual counseling. After two years, the study showed that the dieters' results were similar across the board, whether they followed a plan like Atkins, which emphasizes cutting carbohydrates, a low fat diet, or the Mediterranean diet, with less animal protein. As long as dieters cut calories, their specific diet plan was relatively insignificant.
The researchers' conclusions give dieters the freedom and flexibility to choose whichever diet plan appeals to them. An online diet service provides the tools and support to help you stick to whichever plan you choose.
