Oct 23
There are many dieting fads, from drinking lemon water to eating cabbage soup. While low calorie diets work for most people, they are quite dangerous. In contrast, very fatty diets like the Atkins diet which includes a lot of meat, can prove unhealthy too.
it has long been blamed for causing nightmares. But cheese may also give you a dream figure.
A diet packed with cheese and other dairy products helps with weight loss, a study found.
Australian slimmers were put on low-calorie diets which included varying amounts of cheese, yoghurt and low-fat milk.
Those who increased their daily servings of dairy products from three to five lost the most weight.
They also had lower blood pressure, the least tummy fat and ’significantly improved’ their chances of avoiding heart disease and diabetes.
The researchers, from Curtin University of Technology in Perth, said that although dairy products are widely perceived as being fatty, they have a place in the slimmer’s shopping basket.
