ATLANTA (CBS Atlanta)– One size does not fit all, especially when it comes to dieting.
Research shows that popular diets are only really effective for two or three out of every 10 people that try them, as reported by Daily Mail.
Nutritionist and author Fiona Kirk says the key to permanent weight loss is realizing the best nutrition plan is dependent upon age, lifestyle, and health status.
“A weight loss diet that works for a single woman in her 20s is unlikely to reap the same results when she is in her 40s and struggling through the early stages of menopause… A diet that is going to encourage post pregnancy weight loss is never going to suit a teenager who wants to stay strong and healthy whilst shedding a few pounds and a diet that sees results for regular exercisers who want to shed a bit of fat around the middle is a million air miles away from the weight loss diet that a stressed executive who regularly jets around the globe should consider,” Kirk told Daily Mail.
Kirk made an outline with ten different diet types based on the different characteristics of a person.
“If you want to see results, you have to consider what best suits you. Don’t fret about the diet that your co-workers or friends are following, this is about you,” Kirk says.
An abbreviated version of the nutrition guide is as follows:
MENOPAUSAL WOMEN: Eat more good fats, go easy on grains, feed your thyroid.
OFFICE WORKERS: Limit starch, plan ahead, avoid cravings.
SINGLE MEN AND WOMEN: Consider two hearty meals a day or eat regular small meals light on grains and rich in protein.
FITNESS ENTHUSIASTS: Beware of sport-focused products, focus on fats, play clever with protein.
SENIORS: Snack carefully, make your habits less of a habit, stay fit.
WOMEN POST PREGNANCY: Control cortisol, eat fat to lose fat, say yes to snacks.
STRESSED EXECUTIVES: Pack snacks, avoid bread baskets, try to not eat late.
SHIFT WORKERS: Eat for sleep, avoid sodas, focus on good nutrition in small places (like soup).
TEENAGERS: Don’t go low-calorie, feed your muscles, eat fats from meat and dairy to feed the brain.
NEWLYWEDS: Discuss diet ahead of time, watch alcohol consumption, focus on a hearty breakfast.
The detailed outlines and explanations can be found in Kirk’s Diet Secrets Uncovered, comprised of 10 books.
