Raw Food diet
In this diet, the composition generally consists of uncooked, unprocessed and mostly organic food. Nutritionists say heating food destroys its nutrients and natural enzymes. The raw food diet believes that cooking makes food toxic. It also helps in losing a significant amount of weight as what we eat is low in calories, fat, and sodium, while being high in fibre. Also, one can get nutritional perks such as vitamins and minerals.
Eat-Stop-Eat
Dieters generally eat normally except for 1-2 days each week during which they eat nothing.
The 5:2 diet
In this type of diet, the dieters eat normally five days of the week and severely restrict calories on the remaining two days (eating just 500 calories or so on each of the fasting days).
By reducing one’s calorie intake, weight loss occurs as long as one doesn’t compensate by eating more during the eating periods. Ultimately, all fasting diets aim to cause significant weight loss through caloric restriction.
