A low-carbohydrate diet plan that allows you to eat as much as
you want of the prescribed foods.
The Mayo Clinic's website is very clear: there have been NO diet
plans offered to the public by the Mayo Clinic. Instead they clearly
state that diet plans that they give out to their patients are
always individualized for each patient's needs. The Mayo Clinic
reports it, "did not originate at Mayo Clinic," nor
is it, "approved by Mayo Clinic."
the Mayo clinic website states 'We can offer you clear and official
advice: don't believe any of these diets.
These diets may promote temporary quick weight loss. However,
they are not nutritionally balanced or a safe method of weight
loss for long-term success. Such diets can be dangerous for some
individuals.The Mayo Clinic Diet is available in many forms but
most talk about the fat burning qualities of grapefruit. The diet
allows as much grapefruit, meat and high fat foods as you can
eat to control hunger but not much else. The Mayo Clinic diet
completely eliminates all sugars and starches from the diet, and
limits caffeine intake. It also advocates that grapefruit, salad
and bacon should be part of each diet.
All focus on using grapefruit at each meal as a way to encourage
your body to burn fat. Most rely on large portions of meat and
fat to stop hunger, and insist that eating more fat in your diet
will actually lead to weight loss.
