P.O.R.N. Diets

I am coining this term as I feel some of the diets out there are so radical they need to be discussed in one place.

We here from our favorite celebrities daily and some of us live for this. We follow them on Twitter, talk about them on Bebo and MySpace or e mail each other about them especially when a new diet is talked about.

There have been some over the top radical diets in the past like the 'Air diet', not a very popular one for obvious reasons unlike the 'Chocolate' diet. Then there is the more main stream 'Atkins' diet or 'The Dash Diet' or even 'The South Beach Diet'. All have there plus and minus points and their advocates and nay sayers as well.

The trick when it comes to diets if there is a trick in selecting one would be to thoroughly research the topic. The mere fact that there literally are thousands of diets commercially available shown on television, billboards or even your local Chemist shop.

Here will be many, many articles pertaining to the topic of P.O.R.N. Diets circulating our media and your opinion on them is most welcome. Maybe you have been on one and would like to praise it or maybe warn others away from it. Whatever you may like to share, diet related, please do.

Raw Vegetable & Food Diet! Save Energy & Lose Weight.

By Jessica A. Andersen

this diet sounds like a throwback to the early days of our civilization when everyone had a garden. In fact this plan is very similar to a vegetarian diet because most of the food consists of fruits and vegetables. The plan focuses on raw vegetables especially because it is well-known that raw foods contain nutrients that are lost in the canning and preservation process.

The raw vegetable diet focuses on eating foods in their purest form. In fact, fruits, nuts, grains and most vegetables can be eaten without any cooking at all. Most of the meals in this diet plan consists of salads even at breakfast time. Simple dressings like vinegar, oil or lemon juice can be used.

The amount of carbs consumed in this diet is minimal. Processed foods like pastas, breads and rice are completely eliminated. The only real source of carbs in this diet come from vegetables. A happy circumstance in this case is that it takes a large quantity of vegetables before the carbohydrate level adds up.

Deary products are not part of the raw food diet. In fact, not even milk is allowed. There is one exception however, coconut milk. Many dieters find that it has a great taste even though the consistency is different.

The raw food diet stresses water consumption this is good because there are very few other options on this plan. However fruit juices that are 100% juice are acceptable along with smoothies and the occasional glass of coconut milk.

It is hardly surprising that people lose weight on the raw vegetable diet. You can eat vegetables all day long and because of the low calorie count you'll drop weight. One of the complaints is that the food and the diet can be rather bland because there's no cooking

there are variations to the raw food diet. Sometimes people will add processed grain and cooked vegetables. others might throw in some cooked chicken, cooked fish, or other cooked lean meat. Sometimes, however, only sushi, uncooked fish, is added to the diet.

participants in the raw food diet plan consume all of their necessary protein from nuts and legumes. if you are an exercise fanatic, however, you may find yourself running out of energy on this diet and extra calories might be needed. It's probably a good idea to scale back your exercise routine when first starting this diet.

The raw food diet can be difficult to maintain because it eliminates many foods. It takes discipline, self-control, and the ability to break bad habits. visit our site please in order to learn more about this diet, how to stick to it, great recipes and other important health, nutrition, and exercise information.
