| The Flexitarian Diet is a style of eating that encourages mostly plant-based foods while allowing meat and other animal products in moderation. It's more flexible than fully vegetarian or vegan diets. This article provides an overview of the Flexitarian Diet, its benefits, foods to eat and a one-week meal plan. Eating healthier doesn't have to happen all at once. The flexitarian diet offers potential health benefits by focusing on what we can add (gradually) rather than what we need to (immediately) take away from our diet. Additionally, the principles of the flexitarian diet are aligned with the 2015 Dietary Guidelines for Americans. Both emphasize fruits, vegetables, dairy and whole grains and a broad range of protein foods, including seafood, lean meat, poultry, eggs, legumes, nuts and seeds. Unlike the vegetarian (or the vegan) diet, a flexitarian dietary pattern contains both plant and animal-based foods. It's important to find an eating style that works for you. The flexitarian diet allows for flexibility, which may be appealing to some who are looking for a path to improved health that has fewer rigid rules. If you're looking for a plant- forward option that allows you to have your steak and eat it, too, the flexitarian diet might be for you. With these recipes you can become healthier and loss weight without having to starve yourself. Rather than going for the less healthy route of minimizing your food consumption, the flexitarian diet recipes aim to give you meals you can eat without feeling guilty of their conntent. With these flexitarian diet recipes you can loss weight in the easiest way possible. |
