Mediterranean Diet for Beginners: A Straightforward Guide Outlining Simple Rules for Weight Loss and a 2-Week Meal Plan to Get You Started


Book Description

Have you struggled to lose weight or just want to become healthier and improve your life? There are countless diets out there claiming to help people lose weight, gain the body of their dreams, and attain health. The truth is that these diets are simple fads with little science to back them up. Fad diets such as these have people giving up fats, carbs, and a number of other foods or entire food groups. The Western world has been taught that being on a diet means restricting oneself. However, life doesn’t have to be this way. In fact, it shouldn’t be this way. The Mediterranean diet is an answer to these problems. While it may be called a diet, it is an entire lifestyle. Unlike fad diets, which have only been around for a short time, the Mediterranean diet is the eating style people throughout Mediterranean countries have lived on for centuries. This lifestyle has been tested and proven through time to be effective and maintainable. Not only that, but numerous studies have been conducted on this way of eating—all of which have found it to be beneficial. While other books may try to sell you a quick scheme to lose weight, the Mediterranean diet doesn’t make false promises. You may not lose weight as quickly as you would with a crash or fad diet, but the weight you lose on the Mediterranean diet will stay off unlike with those other ones. All too often, after quitting an un-maintainable crash diet, a person gains back more weight than they lost and are only left with an added five pounds and a damaged metabolism. The same is not true of the Mediterranean diet. Over time, you will slowly achieve the weight loss you hope for—but more importantly, you will gain improved health. Through this book, you will learn how to easily follow the Mediterranean diet to successfully reach your goals. You can learn the science and history behind the Mediterranean diet in an easy-to-understand manner, gaining helpful insight into this centuries-long lifestyle. In this book, you will find: ⦁ The deep and varied history of the Mediterranean diet. ⦁ How Dr. Keys developed the Mediterranean diet plan for better health. ⦁ An in-depth look into the science behind the Mediterranean diet and why it works so well. ⦁ The many health benefits of going Mediterranean—including weight loss, heart health, reduced cancer risk, and more. ⦁ How you can start your weight loss journey on the Mediterranean diet. ⦁ Adopting the Mediterranean diet easily with simple-to-follow steps. ⦁ The Mediterranean food pyramid and the healthy foods it contains. ⦁ Answers to frequently asked questions. ⦁ A two-week menu plan complete with breakfast, lunch, snack, and dinner ideas to get you started. ⦁ And more...
