| Decoding Diets - Which Lifestyle is Right for You? Infographic from eReplacementParts.com in Partnerships with Ghergich.com |
All promise the same thing: weight loss (including the unsightly belly fat). Many promise that you will do so in record time and with minimal effort, i.e., it's easy - they say. Some claim that you will not need to exercise very much, if at all. Still, others assert that you will gain a plethora of other health benefits by following the particular diet.
Nearly all are constructed or backed by a physician, nutritionist or other health and wellness expert and offer plenty of citations to studies, research and scientific data to support their claims and show why theirs is the best, the healthiest, the most effective and perfect diet.
This would be all well and good if the majority of these diets were at least foundationally similar in their basic approach. Unfortunately, some of the most popular diets today are radically different from one another in terms of basic nutrition: i.e., allowed and disallowed macronutrients (i.e., protein, carbohydrates and fats) and/or in terms of severely restricting or completely eliminating entire food groups.
Its no wonder overweight or obese individuals who want or need to lose weight might struggle with keeping the various diets straight and figuring out which one is best for them.
This infographic called "Decoding Diets - Which Lifestyle is for You?" illustrates the basics, goals, tips and guidelines (including the breakdown of macronutrients) for five of the currently most popular diets:
☯ Paleo aka Primal
☯ Ketogenic aka Keto
☯ Vegetarian
☯ Vegan
☯ Anti-Inflammatory
