5.DASH
DASH is short for “dietary approaches to stop hypertension,” but this plan is good for you even if you don’t have high blood pressure. It’s high in fruits and vegetables, whole grains, low-fat dairy, and lean protein. There are also healthy oils, nuts, beans, and peas. You’ll cut back on sweets, saturated fat, and sodium, but nothing’s off-limits. Studies show that the DASH diet lowers blood pressure, cholesterol, and your chances of diabetes.
6.Paleo
The idea behind this is to eat like a caveman. That means no processed food, grains, white potatoes, sugar, beans, and dairy. Instead, grass-fed meat, seafood, and eggs make up 30% of your calories. Fresh fruits and vegetables deliver 30%, and the rest comes from nuts, seeds, and healthy oils. Research suggests this diet works for weight loss, but it cuts out healthy foods like whole grains.
