It can be hard to lose weight sometimes; it can be especially hard to lose weight in a healthy way. Thankfully, there are some wonderful experts out there who are figuring out how this can be done. Read on to learn some of the best healthy diet plans to help you lose weight while maintaining your health.

GM Diet

The GM diet stands for General Motors diet (yes, this diet is brought to you by a car company). GM collaborated with the American Food and Drug Administration to create this diet in order to help their employees lose weight. It is a 7 day diet plan that restricts your eating habits quite a bit.  You mainly consume fruits and veggies, while making sure to stay hydrates. Apparently, people who have tried the diet have reported experiencing increased levels of energy and productivity.

Ketogenic Diet

Ketogenic diet is a high fat, medium protein, and low carb diet. It attempts to replace your body’s normal energy source, which is glucose, that comes from breaking down carbs with healthy fats. If you starve your body of carbs, your body begins to run low on glucose and enters ketosis, the state where it converts fats into ketones and uses them as energy. Keto diet has an increased popularity over the last few years because it results in very rapid weight loss. People have reported losing 2-6 pounds per week, depending on their exercise and strictness of their diet.

Mediterranean Diet

The Mediterranean diet is one of the most famous diet plans in the world. It mimics the eating habits of people native to the Mediterranean sea. It heavily emphasizes seafood, whole whet grains, vegetables, fruits, and dairy products. The Mediterranean diet is also known as the anti-age diet, because it has been known to lengthen people’s lifespans and prevent the onset of age-related diseases.

Paleo Diet

The Pale diet is actually a very good option for someone trying to lose weight and learn how to make consistently good food choices. It involves eating fresh, organic produce, and lean meats. Its basic restriction is to avoid processed and junk food and only eat fresh foods made from whole ingredients.
