The Evolution Diet
GB Personal Training - based in Hampstead NW3, UK
Lots of research and experience
Have you tried surviving on cabbage soup or eating nothing but protein? Most people have tried all sorts of elaborate diets but end up either putting on more weight, having extreme cravings or feeling so sick that they just can’t continue.
Over the years, of working in the health and fitness industry, I’ve discovered what fat loss programmes work through scientific research and trial and error. The diet outlined below I have found to be by far the most effective and as you read on you will see why. For me, this isn’t even a diet but a healthy eating plan that I personally employ on a day to day basis.
Evolution explains why most diets fail
We only have to look back at our evolution to see why most diets we employ today fail. Most diets rely on a starvation principle that heavily limits the amount of calories you can consume on a daily basis. This does cause weight loss short term by muscle wastage and water loss but very little of this weight is actual fat. These starvation diets actually cause us to store fat for survival and in turn put on more weight in the long term.
Heavy calorie reduction causes a severe reduction in leptin (protein), which in turn signals a starvation response in our body. This response reduces our metabolic rate and increases our hunger. It is believed that this response originates back to our ancestors and the “Hunter Gather Days”, when food was often scarce. Our body’s developed a way to conserve its most valuable energy source, body fat, in order to survive longer.
So starvation or heavy calorie restricted diets are not the answer they not only cause you to put on more fat in the long term (yo yo dieting) but also slow down your metabolism the exact thing you need to increase to burn more fat.
