Ever been tempted by a diet trend on social media? Redcliffe Hosptial Dietitian Maggie weighs up what’s trending vs what’s actually beneficial for us. Her thoughts:
MEDITERRANEAN DIET
✅Provides overall healthy, sustainable eating patterns and a balanced diet.
❌Can be expensive.
NO SUGAR DIET
✅May help reduce inflammation, good if you’re only cutting out added sugars.
❌Quite restrictive and unsustainable to cut out all sugars because it includes some fruit and vegetables.
KETO (KETOGENIC) DIET
✅Can help with weight loss initially by eliminating water stored in your body.
❌Expensive, drastic change to usual diet, very restrictive, can lead to increased cholesterol, vitamin and mineral deficiencies and can cause constipation.
INTERMITTENT FASTING
✅Create caloric deficit which causes weight loss if that is your goal, decrease blood pressure and inflammatory markers help with improving cholesterol and insulin sensitivity.
❌Can get very hungry, not always sustainable. not clear if its better or worse than traditional diets
CELERY DIET
✅ .... it’s cheap.
❌Missing out on a whole heap of nutrients, not sustainable.
DETOX DIET
✅Can reduce sugar, salt or alcohol intake, depending on your goals.
❌A lot are false advertising and claim false health benefits, often not scientifically proven, expensive, restrictive. Your body already has natural detoxifying systems.
