2. The Atkins diet :
This Diet doesn’t differ much from the keto diet it follows basically the same principle of depending on low carbohydrate intake and having a higher fat and protein content the difference here is that the Atkins diet has more meal plans available and is way easier to follow as it is split into phases and throughout each phase, you are allowed a certain amount of carbs intake per day and it also specifies the types of foods you can consume during this phase there are mainly 4 phases in the Atkins diet
-
- The induction phase starts out with a strong prohibition of carbs intake up to 20_25 grams of carbs per day for two whole weeks to help you have a powerful start with easy weight loss
- The balancing phase where you restrict the carbohydrates intake to 25_50 grams per day and have more fatty foods, fruits, and vegetables
- The fine-tuning phase where you consume from 50_80 grams of carbohydrates per day with a wider variety of food reintroduced to your diet
- The maintaining phase where you increase the carbs content to 100 grams per day but not exceed that to help your body stay fit for longer with maintaining the weight you managed to lose throughout the previous phases
