Our diet is what we eat. Many people use the term diet to refer to eating less or restricting certain foods. People go on a diet to lose weight and body fat, in order to change their body shape.
A diet in terms of restricted diet or calorie controlled diet, can help us lose weight but if it is not sustainable we may not be able to maintain weight loss and weight lost returns to normal when original eating patterns are restored.
Nutritionists advise a balanced diet is the best diet to follow. Our diet should contain Carbohydrate, Fat and Protein. If we exclude any of these food types from our diet our health will suffer as a result.
Popular diets that people follow include:
