How Well Do You Know About The Mayo Clinic Diet?

December 30th 2008 06:19
When people first hear about the Mayo Clinic Diet, they will mostly have some bad thoughts on it, as some of them might have heard that it's a method that being used on cardiac wards for patients that want to have weight loss quickly.

Well, same with you all, I used to have a wrong impression about the Mayo Clinic Diet because I heard that some said it can cause heart problems if we're practicing this method. For your information, you know that I'm the type of person that always want to find out the truth that hidden behind the myth and I won't give up easily.


After years of investigation and observation, I found out that Mayo Clinic Diet is not what as the experts claimed, where it is a healthy lifestyle program can help you to maintain your ideal weight in your daily life.

What is special about the Mayo Clinic Diet is it based on a food pyramid that helps the consumers to choose the right amount of serving for every food group. It recommends that there is not any limit for the amounts of vegetables and fruits consumption, but you must be not consuming up to 75 calories of sweets per day.



This Mayo Clinic Diet is best to reduce the risk of cancer and type two diabetes. Even you're already a type two diabetic, you can still practice this Mayo Clinic Diet as well.


Below here is one of my sample meal plans of Mayo Clinic Diet:

Breakfast: 1 bowl of oatmeal/bran cereal and 1 cup of herbal tea
Lunch: Broccoli/Cauliflower salad, 1 apple and a glass of plain water
Dinner: Cod with lemon and capers, 1 cup steamed green beans and a glass of water

Note: I’m a type 2 diabetic as well, and the above is a 1,200 – 1,500 calorie meal plan, where it’s an idea meal plan for the type 2 diabetic!

As you can see, the above three main daily meals are mainly concentrated on vegetables and fruits, where it’s good for all people that want to have a healthier lifestyle!

Good to see almonds featured there so prominently, but I think I'd feel like I was starving if I was having your own recommendation, although it does sound good.

Oliver Twist like, "Please Sir, I want some more".

Hmm..., these meal plans are good for those that don't want to intake too much of calories, Katyzzz.

If you would like something around 2,000 calories per day, you can have these meal plans:

Breakfast: 1 bowl of oatmeal 1 fesh vegetable juice/yogourt
Lunch: Seafood Salad 1 bowl of rice 1 cup of black bean 1 mango pudding
Dinner: Grilled Chicken Cinnamon Cake

Hope you'll love it
