El semáforo de las dietas: cuáles tienen luz verde y cuáles son bandera roja | EL COMIDISTA

The word "diet" can refer to different things, some good and some not so good. Mediterranean, Atlantic, and vegetarian diets are all straightforward ways of eating, but problems often begin when we understand "diet" as a "regime": a specific period of time in which we can eat certain things and have to give up others. Eighty-five percent of people who follow this last type of diet end up regaining the lost weight and can also suffer significant damage to their physical and mental health. To avoid getting lost in the dietary wilderness and separate good practices from harmful ones, we asked pharmacist, nutritionist, and science communicator Marián García, known on social media as Boticaria García, to analyze nine diets. The author of the book "Your Brain Is Hungry" applied her traffic light system: if you want to see which ones got the green light, which ones stayed yellow, and which ones are red, meaning "do not follow them under any circumstances," watch the video above.
