This review summarises the evidence and clinical application of this diet in various disorders. An empiric vegan variant of it has been Iprovided, keeping in mind vegan food habits. Review of the literature: different types of Palaeolithic diets in vogue include the 80/20, the autoimmune, the lacto, the Palaeolithic vegan and the Palaeolithic ketogenic. We have developed an Indian variant of the Palaeolithic vegan diet, which excludes all animal-based foods. The Palaeolithic diet typically has low carbohydrate and lean protein of 30–35% daily caloric intake in addition to a fibre diet from non-cereal, plant-based sources, up to 45–100 g daily. In different observational studies, beneficial effects on metabolic syndrome, blood pressure, glucose tolerance, insulin secretion, lipid profiles and cardiovascular risk factors have been documented with the Palaeolithic diet. Short-term randomised controlled trials have documented weight loss, and improved glycaemia and adipo-cytokine profiles.

Functional Foods in Health and Disease 2017; 7(9); 702-715. https://doi.org/10.31989/ffhd.v7i9.346 ABSTRACT Fad diets can be defined as any diet making claims that are unrealistic and not supported by evidence-based data. Having been developed since the early 19th century, fad diets promise drastic weight loss and/or other unsubstantiated health claims while often omitting entire food groups. Their popularity with the public makes them an important topic for nutritionists and clinicians, especially in the framework of the obesity epidemic. Additionally, it is conceivable that components of fad diets can indeed facilitate weight loss, even if the diet overall is without merit. The grapefruit diet, the cabbage soup diet, and the human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) diet are among the most popular fad diets and are reviewed within this study not only in terms of the diet plan itself, but also in terms of possible and known weight loss and health benefits provided by the foods on which the diets are based.

This has Available online 18 June 2013 been accelerated by the maturation of different techniques, which have produced a plethora of new information. However, this proliferation of data has led to confusing and contradictory results. Furthermore, most of the ecological dietary studies have been carried out on specimens drawn from different time periods and regions, almost exclusively those characterized by cold, open environmental conditions. Subsistence models based on these fragmentary data have been applied to Neanderthals living in a variety of different regions and environments, even though their dietary strategies may have been as variable as regions they inhabited. In this paper we integrate different dietary approaches (studies of the zooarchaeology, stable isotopes and plant remains) from the central and southeastern Mediterranean coast of Iberia in order to develop a broader and more complex picture of Neanderthal diet in different Mediterranean environmental conditions.

Nonetheless, they are mainly based on personal impressions and reports published in books and magazines, rather than on scientific evidence. Animal models and human clinical trials have been Keywords: employed to study changes in body composition and metabolic outcomes to determine the most effective Obesity diet.

In the short term, high-protein, low-carbohydrate diets and intermittent Fasting Macronutrient fasting are suggested to promote greater weight loss and could be adopted as a jumpstart. However, owing to adverse effects, caution is required. In the long term, current evidence indicates that different diets pro- moted similar weight loss and adherence to diets will predict their success.

  • High Fat Diet?
    LOW-CARB DIETS CARLY DAVIS, MS, RDN, LD LOW CARBOHYDRATE DIETS • Defined – Low-carbohydrate diets restrict caloric intake by reducing the consumption of carbohydrates to 20 to 60 g per day (American Academy of Family Physicians, 2006) – Typically less than 20 percent of the daily caloric intake • Limit carbs to burn alternative fuel • Became popular in the 1990s-2000s – Atkins Diet, South Beach Diet, Zone Diet • Still popular today – Paleo, Whole30, Bulletproof Diet PROBLEMS WITH LOW CARB DIETS • Loss of glycogen in muscle tissue and liver results in weight loss (but its mostly water!) – Easily regained • Limits healthy carbohydrates like whole grains, legumes, and fruits • Encouraged to replace carbohydrates with food sources that are typically high in saturated fat and cholesterol (meat, eggs, poultry) • Usually inadequate in fiber – Stabilizes blood sugar – Feeds the gut microbiome – Lowers LDL cholesterol – Aids in satiety and fullness ALL CARBS ARE NOT CREATED EQUAL TAKEAWAYS • Beware of diets that demonize any particular macronutrient (we need them all!!) • Don’t be scared of fruit (rich source of fiber, antioxidants, phytochemicals) • Limit refined carbohydrates (white rice, white bread, cookies, cakes, pastries, etc) and replace with whole grains (oats, brown rice, wheat, quinoa, amaranth, sorghum, etc.) • Carbohydrates are the brain’s fuel source of choice • The quality of the diet is not in what we are limiting but what we are actually eating THE MEDITERRANEAN DIET MEDITERRANEAN DIET • No universal definition – Italians vs Greeks

Scherr, PhD Sheri Zidenberg-Cherr, PhD For Health Professionals Center for Nutrition in Schools Department of Nutrition University of California, Davis 2018 What is the Paleo Diet? The Paleo diet, also referred to as the Paleolithic diet, emphasizes an increased consumption of lean meat, fish, shellfish, fruit, vegetables, eggs, nuts, and seeds while excluding grains, legumes, cereals, dairy, processed foods, refined sugars and added salt.1 The Paleo diet has gained popularity all over the world, and in 2014, it was the most searched diet-related term via Google.2 This diet pattern finds its roots in our human Paleolithic ancestors who consumed foods available from their environments through hunting, fishing, and gathering. Since humans followed hunter-gatherer lifestyles for many thousands of years, the advocates of the Paleo diet claim the human body became especially well adapted to this diet.3 However, the composition of the ancient Paleolithic diet varied greatly based on geographic region.2 Critics of the contemporary Western diet postulate that the rise in chronic illnesses such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and cardiovascular disease, is due to the influx of processed, refined, and sodium-heavy foods made widely available to the public, and that the nutritional quality of an ancestor-based diet may have therapeutic value in the treatment of chronic disease.3,4

  • The Gluten-Free Diet
    The Gluten-Free Diet Gluten is a protein particle found in all forms of wheat, barley and rye. Gluten is also found in wheat additives, the most common additive used in American food products. Those on a gluten-free diet forgo all products containing wheat, barley, rye, their various derivatives, and additives containing these ingredients. Those who are gluten-free embrace a diet filled with fruits, vegetables, meats, beans, and legumes. Nuts and most dairy products are naturally gluten-free, and safe for individuals who do not have allergies to these respective food groups. There are a variety of alternatives that naturally DO NOT contain gluten and thus can be consumed by those on a gluten-free diet. These include: Almond meal flour Corn Potatoes Sorghum flour Amaranth Cornstarch Potato flour Soy flour Buckwheat Guar Gum Quinoa White rice flour Coconut flour Pea flour Rice The gluten- free diet has quickly become one the fastest growing nutritional movements in America, gaining popularity for its health and therapeutic benefits. The gluten-free diet is safe, and can be healthy for everyone. It may also hold the key to better health, alleviating symptoms such as: Ataxia Autoimmune diseases (Hashimoto’s, Diabetes, Rheumatoid Arthritis) Fatigue Gastrointestinal distress (diarrhea, constipation, gas, bloating, reflux) Headaches (including migraines) Infertility Insomnia Joint/muscle pain (often misdiagnosed as fibromyalgia) Lactose intolerance Mood disorders (depression, bipolar, “fuzzy head,” schizophrenia) Seizures Respiratory distress (including asthma) Skin disorders (often misdiagnosed as eczema) Weight gain or weight loss Millions of people have celiac disease or some form of intolerance or sensitivity to gluten, and most live unaware and undiagnosed.
