THE MACROBIOTIC DIET FAD
Years ago, the macrobiotic diet used to be one of the most popular diets to be on. It’s all about whole foods over processed foods, and it encourages meditation and slowing down your lifestyle and eating habits in general. Meals primarily consist of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, so weight loss is possible.
Still, critics caution that this plan’s strict guidelines make it difficult to keep and may even lead to nutritional deficiencies. As with many diets, it’s essential to do plenty of research before taking on a macrobiotic lifestyle and to try working with a dietician to make sure all your nutritional needs are being met.
