Every year we see new trends in dieting, and everyone can’t wait to try the next big thing. Changing your diet isn’t just for losing weight, but for living a healthier lifestyle too. Even though I’m wary of some of the fad diets, I do know that eating differently can make you more healthy. This year, we can expect to see more of some of the emerging trends from 2015, as well as some new things too. People will no doubt try out some of the new trends, and for some, they might benefit them. Have a look at some of the diets people will be trying in 2016.
Gluten-free Grains
Choosing to eat a gluten-free diet has become a little controversial. For people who have Celiac’s disease or suffer from a sensitivity, there are positives and negatives. On the one hand, there are more gluten-free products available in stores. However, it can also mean they face a backlash from people who think they’re just trying to be trendy hipsters. Nevertheless, leaving gluten out of your diet is on the rise. This year, lots of people are promoting gluten-free grains. For anyone who misses eating quality bread, they can be excellent for making your own.
Cutting Down on Meat and Dairy
Going vegan is on the rise too, although not everyone is ready to give up meat and dairy entirely. However, many people want to cut back and focus on vegetables, grains and legumes more. You don’t need to eat meat or fish with every meal, so you could consider cutting back to once or twice a week. Dairy can often cause problems too, from digestive issues to skin conditions. Focusing on a plant-based diet might be a great option for you if you’re hoping to eat more healthily. It can also give you an opportunity to explore different foods and learn about new things you like.
Supplements and Dietary Aids
Dietary supplements and aids aren’t going away. There are still plenty of them around this year and lots of confusion surrounding them. People understandably don’t know which ones will work for them. The important thing to do is to do your research and collect information from a variety of sources. Don’t just look at dieting websites, but at scientific sites too. Many people report that they have success with using supplements. This year, you’ll hear plenty about the Forskolin diet, and less about Garcinia Cambogia. However, you can still find lots of information about the latter.
Clean Eating
Eating cleanly is another trend that many people have taken up. Cutting out processed foods and artificial sugars has become a popular thing to do. It can be a difficult task for a lot of people, but they often report feeling better for it. It can be especially hard when you need to buy something quick to eat. However, it’s getting easier as more people want to buy clean products.
This year’s dieting trends might inspire you to change the way you eat. Whether you want to lose weight or just be healthier, you can find a diet that suits you.
