The Mayo Clinic Diet - Healthy Weight Loss

The Mayo Clinic Diet program is based on healthy eating and sustainable weight loss. It's not a rapid way to lose weight. Rather it's a very healthy way to lose weight and keep it off for the long term.

The main aspects of their weight loss program is encouraging people to eat lots of fruits and vegetables. They call it 'low energy density' and it means you are eating a lot of bulky foods that have few calories. This will help make you feel full and these foods are very nutritious, so it will help you in all aspects of your health, not just with weight loss.

Last week, the Mayo Clinic teamed up with eDiets.com to make their weight loss program available on the eDiets website. If you subscribe to this plan on eDiets you will get weekly personalized menus, charting and results reports, do's and don'ts for losing weight and other personalized online advice.

But you don't need to subscribe to the plan to benefit from their basic recommendations - just try making vegetables and fruits a large part of your total diet. See more about Eating More to Lose Weight in a previous post here.
