Low-fat diets

These diets are among one of the most popular weight-loss diets. These are easy and very doable.

There are other benefits to these diets. Following a low-fat diet can reduce risk of getting heart diseases and strokes. These diets also help with diabetes.

The DASH diet

These are very healthy as well as effective. A person following a DASH diet has to intake fruits, vegetable, lean meats and vegetables in ample quantities. Salt, added sugars, fat and red meat should be avoided. ‘

Even though Dash diets are not weight-loss diets, a number of people have reported healthy weight-loss after following them.

Intermittent fasting

Intermittent fasting has emerged as one of the most popular ways of losing weight. It doesn’t regulate what you eat. Instead, it focuses on the duration and periods between food intake.

In simple words, the time of eating is restricted as a meaure to limit calorie intake. During the hours you’re allowed to eat, you just have to focus on the calorie intake and you’re good to eat any quantity of food you like.

Low-carb diets

Low-carb diets are one of the most followed and preferred types of weight loss strategies. Keto diets have been very popular for more than a decade.

Low-carb diets restrict the inclusion of carbs in diets. More protein and fat is consumed. There is no scientific proof as of yet, but a number of people have claimed that low-carb diets are more beneficial that low-fat diets.
