健康飲食很重要,少鹽減脂是王道。
Nutrients like potassium, calcium, protein and fiber are crucial to fending off or fighting high blood pressure. You don't have to track each one, though.

地中海飲食法(Mediterranean diet)借鑒了地中海居民的飲食習慣,如少吃紅肉、糖、飽和脂肪,多吃堅果等,可以有效幫助人們減重,維護心腦健康,預防癌癥和糖尿病,被評為最健康、最易遵循的飲食法。
飲食宣言:

位于波士頓的非盈利智庫Oldways與哈佛大學合作,總結出地中海飲食金字塔(Mediterranean diet pyramid),來看看具體怎么吃:
? Mediterranean diet pyramid emphasizes eating fruits, veggies, whole grains, beans, nuts, legumes, olive oil, and flavorful herbs and spices.
地中海飲食金字塔提倡多食用水果、蔬菜、全谷物、豆類、堅果、橄欖油和調味香料。

Add strawberries or raspberries and a teaspoon of honey to sweeten. To make it a more complete breakfast, this can be paired with a slice of whole-grain toast "buttered" with smashed avocado.

Weight Watchers Diet
輕體飲食法(Weight Watcher Diet)是該榜單中排名第一的減重飲食法,其主要實踐為智能分數飲食計劃(The SmartPoints food plan)。
你可以根據自己的性別、體型、年齡設定一個每日目標分數,參照該活動中給每種食物的賦值,完成每天的熱量和營養攝入。
飲食宣言:
低脂低糖高蛋白,一周健康瘦2斤!
There’s more to weight loss than counting calories – if you make healthier choices and behavior changes, you’ll feel better while losing weight.
減重可不只是計算攝入的卡路里。如果你能做出更加健康的飲食選擇,改變生活方式,你將在減重的同時愉悅身心。
The Weight Watchers Beyond the Scale Program, launched in late 2015, is designed to help people eat better, move more and shift their mindset.
輕體協會“體重秤之外”減重計劃于2015年末發起,旨在幫助人們吃得更健康,運動更多,從而改變心態。
The program assigns every food and beverage a SmartPoints value, based on its nutrition (higher amounts of saturated fat and sugar increase the point value; higher amounts of protein bring the point value down).
這項計劃依據營養成分給每種食物和飲品設置了一個智能分數,飽和脂肪和糖含量越高,分值越高;而蛋白質含量越高,分值越低。
Choices that fill you up the longest “cost” the least, and nutritionally dense foods cost less than empty calories.
飽腹感越強的食物分值越低,而在提供相同卡路里的前提下,高營養食物分值更低。
按照這種飲食計劃,根據體形、性別、年齡的不同,每人每天可以吃掉的食物總分值也不一樣,最少是30分。
比如說,一個培根芝士漢堡是20分,如果你早餐吃了一個培根芝士漢堡,那其余的幾餐就只能吃一點點脂肪,多吃0分值的蔬菜水果,來保證不超過目標分數了。
Tips
? Do: Load up on fruits and veggies.
多吃果蔬。
They carry zero points, meaning you can eat as many as you need to feel satisfied, since they contribute healthful nutrients like fiber, vitamins and minerals, and are more filling than, say, a bag of chips or a candy bar.
新鮮水果和蔬菜分值為零,因為蔬果可以提供纖維、維生素、礦物質等有益營養成分,且比薯片和糖果更有飽腹感。所以你可以盡情吃蔬果,吃到滿足為止。
? Do: Take a supplement.
服用營養素補充品。
Weight Watchers suggests taking a daily multivitamin to ensure you’re getting enough calcium, zinc, magnesium, iron, vitamin B-12 and other important nutrients.
輕體協會建議每天服用復合維生素片以確保獲得充足的鈣、鋅、鎂、鐵、維生素B-12和其他重要的營養成分。
當然,天然果蔬才是健康飲食的首選,保健品可不能代替正常飲食呦!

Add vegetables like peas, corn, green beans and carrots to give it a boost of flavor and vitamins.

外媒評出的健康飲食法頗具西方飲食的特點,如多食用肉類、奶酪、沙拉等。
相比之下,中餐烹飪素食和谷物的花樣更加繁多。
總之,少吃油鹽多吃菜,堅持鍛煉輕體快!
